they only made 25K cigars for this release, so it might also be too limited for a regular cigar.

If you are looking for great value my favorites are the JLP cremas, brevas and the new petit cazadores. All made with Vuelta Arriba tobacco. I find the JLPs to be the tastiest mixed filler/value smokes (they are still all hand made). Some other mixed filler hand mades you may want to try...

If they stock it... give the St Bernardus ABT 12 a go... I love this one. Also try the beers from Unibroue such as Le Fin du Monde, Trois Pistole, Maudite etc ... really high quality stuff.

an 07 PLP ... nothing special here, hopefully they will improve with rest because this one was very flat.

Al, you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I tried my first Unibroue tonight, Le Fin du Monde paired with a JLP Petit Cazadore. What an delicious combo! This beer is outstanding!

nice report and nice pic Newfie... now I need to go back :D

I've never tried the Blue because I don't like the offering of sizes but I think the Blacks are awesome... I would even go as far as saying, maybe one of the best NC blends I've ever smoked. Prices are decent too.

I love these sticks, great flavor/strength balance and great size.

For some reason, every time you write a review I get the urge to make a purchase :D Nice review!

The reason why the Napoleon grand is cheaper... it's a mixed filler (sandwich type) bundled cigar. In my opinion, the Diplomatico is the best of the line and is also one of the best non Cuban value cigars on the market. I haven't looked in a while but I think 25ct boxes still go for somewhere...

Great review, I like the pics. I'm not sure I would compare this to the Opus though... a lot more was put into the Opus project far beyond just being a limited cigar. I don't doubt this is a great cigar because I've really enjoyed the Pepin stuff I've tried so far, but sometimes I wonder about...

DITTO :thumbs:

Montesino Robusto Maduro... these cigars have really proved to me how a cigar can improve with age. I've had this box for about 3 years or so now and they are starting to get good, for the first few years most of the ones I tried sucked.

have you smoked one of those gems yet?

great story, it's nice to have a list of the great cigar shops/people

JLP Brevas... I enjoyed it

They're everywhere here, but $22 for a 2000 :)

That's almost the holy grail, rich and decadent without being too bold... I like it :thumbs:

the P2s in JLP sizes. Brevas, Petit Cazadores, Cremas etc, Cuban sandwich cigars are great for yard/golf cigars, but to fight the wind you need the smaller ring.
