Guantanamera

[smokelaw1]

A friend just came over with some of these, label says that they are an ISOM. I haven't heard of them...anyone else?

 

[bobbyshirley]

Yes!! I smoked about 10 of these on my honeymoon in Cancun, last August. I absolutely loved 'em!! :love: :thumbs: That is about all I know of them. I thought they were ISOM's as well. ???

 

[SMSUCigarguy]

Yeah, I've heard of them. As far as I know, they are the newest Cuban brand. They are named after a famous Cuban song of the same name. Other than that, I know nothing about them. I'd be interested in a review!

Yes.
They are a recent company formed in 02?
They produce cheaper priced and some say lower quality cigars.

SO far the only ones i have tried are the cristales (they came in glass tubes). too mild for my tastes.

They recently introduced new sizes

Decimos
Puritos
and another one which I cant remember.
The newer ones I beleive from what i have read come in cello.

Yes... they suck.. IMHO

 

[smokelaw1]

Thanks all. Done some more searching. They seem to be really really mild. The ISOM for non-cigar smokers.
Perfect for certain people I know.

I buddy of mine had one....it was too mild. (nice glass tube)

I smoked some Decimos on the beach in Cuba, they are mild. I thought they were a nice morning or early afternoon smoke, especially in the wind. All of them were consistent and burned like champs!

Agreed. Yes they are ISOM, but short filler, lacking quality, and marketed at tourists in clear plastic tubes. They are a big seller at tourist shops in Cuba, because the price is right.

Got to agree !

My buddy gave these out when his kid was born.
Needless to say, the newborn was even insulted.

VERY mild machine made ISOM. Not too bad if your inclined to enjoy sucking wind.

 

[drew_goring]

I had one a couple years ago. Definatly not worth it. Especially when you are going to be dealing with ISOMs to start with...

 

[Fyodor]

Seriously, you have never heard of them? The are the official Cuban dog rocket of this forum, refered to often. I for one think they are O.K. for what they cost, very little.

 

[cletus]

I have around twenty, will trade if interested.
Also I have some called Columbus, heres the link

Probably have around twenty of them, also if interested.

... pretty catchy song though. :thumbs:

 

[ggiese]

I was gonna say they were the Macanudo's of the Cuban cigar world, but Macanudo's would be insulted if they were called "Guantanamera"... :whistling:

And, no - it's not a "glass" tube - it's plastic... And kinda cheesy at that...

Yup it is. It's a favorite of Pete Seager and other Socialist rable rousers.

Doc.

 

[siva66]

had them about a year ago myself, and i wasn't too impressed with them at all really.

It's hard to even think of a shittier cigar!!
