I had the pleasure of smoking 2 of these, each a few months apart. I thought they were excellent smokes however I don't think they are worth the price tag at all. Just my opinion, for the money you can load up on a bunch of equally or more spectacular smokes.

Mm, I have two boxes just sitting in my humidor that I'm afraid to touch. I did promise myself that when I hear from this firm I interviewed for last week, and provided I hear good news, I will be lighting one up to celebrate.

Will report back at that point.

Good cigars but not worth the price.

Pre-release cigars were fantastic...official production...not close to worth the cost.

If you're saving them for special occasions you'll have plenty to celebrate with and to review.

Good luck!!!

I have had two of these bad boys so far. While the construction and overall appearance are freaking amazing I would not pay the coin for them again. It was nice to say I have had them.

These aren't worth $1900/box of 15? :sign:

I have smoked more than a few of these. They are stunningly good cigars, with rich, deep flavor that is extraordinary. Although not as different as the Behike, these have a bolder flavor than the Siglo & classic line.
There exists little- no difference between the pre-release Festival boxes, and the 15ct. box. My beef is the size. These are canonazos and they feel large. Personally, I would have preferred a special Siglo V, my current favorite Cohiba.

If you can find them, they are a rare treat.

Cheers

I just check at my local B&M and the price tag on them is $2731 for a box of 15 :0
That is outrages,no cigar is worth that much.

And to think I feel $30-$40 is too much for a cigar.............Wow. There are certainly some amazing cigars out there for far less money....I think I'll stick with those.
