Hey guys,
I just tried a new label and wanted to see if your opinion is the same as mine. I went over to Tampa Humidor here in Tampa, FL to relax and unwind and did the unsual. I walked in and talked with Mike the owner. I asked him if he had any suggestions for a new blend to try, he sent me to try out the new Pride. I was hesitant to try but what the heck I listened to give it a try. I picked up a couple of Pride Cigars and boy did I enjoy them. The first one I tried was the Pride "Robusto" (5x50). First of all the aroma was pleasant and it was quick to get a good ash started. I continued to burn through this cigar, which actually had a smooth draw without any problems. It actually had a hit of cocoa throughout the smoke. Towards the top part of the label it had a cedary taste...pleasant because normally the smokes that I get, is bitter towards the bottom. The cigar finished perfect for me. What threw me for a loop was the price was $5.50. I was amazed!! How can a cigar this good cost so cheap. Mike showed me an article in Cigar Snob for Jan/Feb that had the same cigar the Pride Robusto rated a 90. I believe I found a new favorite smoke...just to take home I had a Pride Lancero which was recommended to me. Let me know if you guys have ever tried this smoke, if not give it a try...cause I did and was pleased.
