While I was in the Bahamas, I purchased the Graycliff Elegante Blue label. Any opinions on these sticks?

You may be in the best position to give an opinion...
Wasn't he the former El Laguito factory manager and the one who blended Cohibas?

Absolutely, I smoked one. A dry smoke. Not really complex. I thought it was mild for my taste. The rest of the sticks I have resting in the cabinet.

Half correct .......He was the El Laguito factory manager........He was not the original blender of the cohiba......Nice going though

Hopefully they get better with age.
Never had 'em, so I can't be any more helpful.Are you joking? I can't believe that....... :whistling:
I remember a CA article saying he was the one who "guarded" the blend for Cohiba and Trinidad when it was just a diplomatic smoke. Didn't say who blended it though.....Sorry for the threadjack, interesting though.

The original blend was developed by Eduardo Rivera.........According to Min Ron Nee's Book
