I was just curious if anyone else has tried the stuff from these guys and I wanted to compare opinions. I had a mixed experience with their products.
The Don Kiki line I found OK. I can forgive them their shortcomings because of the low prices and generous sizes. The Greens are a mild smoke I like in warm weather with a cold drink. They're also good to hand out. The Browns are a decent full flavored smoke with a good nicotine hit. The Reds I don't care for. Just like the Greens, but harsher.
The Cuban Crafters Cabinet I found pretty unimpressive and the CC Cameroon was pure crap.
The Beck and Vegas Cigars were well made and looked nice, but tasted like crap.
The JL Salazar Y Hermanos was a nice surprise! I really like this cigar and still buy it. Nice oily brown wrapper with an enticing bouquet. Smooth medium bodied smoke that you feel in your guts. Good stuff IMO.
I have heard good things about the Cupido, but never tried it.
The first order I placed was for a bundle of cigars for baby birth announcements (Don Kiki Greens) and a small humidor. The cigars were good and they threw in some extras for me!
The second order I made for a sampler turned me off. The cigars were dry
and some were damaged.
Anyone else have something to say about these smokes and Cuban Crafters?
