Zino Event - suggestions?

[buzz]

There is a "Zino Platinum Red Carpet Event" this Friday at my B&M. A buddy and I are going to meet there for a smoke and some scotch. I did a little searching about Zino cigars (I haven't tried one yet). Seems like they may be overpriced. Does anyone have some experience with Zino - any suggestions on what I should try from them?

One review I read called the brand "pretentious" - haha

I have had several Zinos.......I don't buy them or keep them on hand. Imho, they are indeed overpriced and nothing special in the flavor department. YMMV

About the best I can say about em is that the construction is tremendous. They won't hold up against scotch. I smoked a "Platinum" several months ago and it tasted metallic.

I have two Zino Platinum Chubbies in my humi now.
Nothing to write about. Overpriced. I bought three, smoked one and wished I had
not bought two more. But, go to the event and work them for some freebies.
