I have had a few now and damnit I like them! Crazy spice and a strange aroma. 
I think I will be doing a review'

I would not keep these with regular cigars. Latakia can definitely transfer to other tobaccos. I'm not sure if I'll spend money to try one. I smoke pipes too, and rarely smoke Latakia anymore. If I want that flavor, I'll load a bowl. Not a gimmick, in my estimation, but certainly not something I want or look for in a cigar.
 
Very mellow fire cured taste. The aroma is delicious. I quite like them, but it's definitely something I have to be in the mood for...
 
I have had one of the 4x46 and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I have about 10 left if anyone wants a cover let me know. I will hook you up for what I paid for em and ship em for free. I think they were 7.20 each but would have to double check.
 
I had a Kentucky Gentleman this weekend.  I really thought is was pretty good.

I was just gifted one. Smells like some hickory jerky or something.  So weird.  Should I chew on the cigar?
 
Tastes like Fritos.
 
 
OK...two guys who's opinions I totally respect are telling me it's hickory flavored beef jerky rolled in a Fritos tortilla!
 
Can't wait to try this one 
 
What's next?...'crack in a bowl' flavored cigars?  :laugh:

aka Bacon blue cheese dip?
 
Isy, time to start a boutique cigar company and get working on this blend!  :laugh:
 
 
In respect to BTB's OP, I am definitely going to try one of these eventually.  I enjoy the smokey flavor of latakia and just smoked things in general, so I'm curious to give it a shot. 
 
This thread reads like a dish that someone made at home and posted in the Food section!  :laugh:
 
 
Now I definitely have to try one, just need to find a B&M that carries them so I can buy a single....not sure a 5er is in order. 
 
Gary, go ahead and jump on a fiver.  Then you'll have 3 years and 5 days worth of sticks in your humi....... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

...I wish I had the room for 5 more cigars!
 
I'm not convinced that these won't transfer that smokiness to other cigars.

Yeah.  I agree there may be something to this.  I know from having a lot of latakia heavy pipe tobacco blends that even sealed in the mason jars I can smell the smokiness when I open my cabinet.

I here ya guys, that's why I just want one to smoke. I tried 3 B&Ms today while out on the road today and no one had the KFC. I did however grab one of the DE Nirvana Corona Gordas while at one shop. That should be interesting....$12.41 with taxes  :laugh:
