Okay, so everyone already knows about these. It's not like I'm saying anything NEW, and I accept that.
I just want to say that if I won the lottery or something, I'd be smoking one of these every day. Ye gods and ancestors, what a CIGAR.
hock:
I've had a few Don Carlos 'bustos, a few Carlito double 'bustos. They each have their good points, but the one thing that strikes me most is how, throughout the entire cigar, the one thought in the forefront of my mind the entire time is "Wow! What a great cigar!"
There's just such a wonderful richness to these things. Other cigars may impress with blasts of spice or intriguing flavor profiles, but I just don't think I've ever smoked anything with such a wonderful rich, full, satisfying impact. They're not over the top "oh my gawd smokes" . . . they're just dead on perfect smoking experiences. Flawless construction, razor sharp burn with never a single correction needed, and full tilt boogie rich and satisfying smoke. Wonderful.
I got a great deal on a sampler recently---five GOF and a Prometheus lighter for $99. Figure $50 for the lighter (it's kickass) and that works out to $10 a stick. If I could get them for that all the time, they're what I'd be smoking . . . but how many $50 lighters does a man need, anyway? [lol]
Now, if I could get 'em for that price WITHOUT the lighter . . . hooo, buddy.

I've been on the fence about these, but looks like I'll have to try them out.
