Anyone tried the "Brown Bag Special" from CI?

[MMAB]

1- CAO Criollo Pato
1- Carlos Torano Exodus Silver Robusto
1- Carlos Torano Signature Robusto
1- Gurkha Master Select Toro Grande
1- Partagas Naturals
1- Puros Indios Magnum Maduro

Those are what I would consider the better cigars in the lot which would sell for around $35 to $40 in most shops. The other cigars are fine, just lower levels of the particular manufacturers and of course their are the mystery cigars.

But overall it sounds like a good deal.

Sounds like a good deal to me.....

Looks good to me, minus the 5 Vegas. I wouldn't call it a rocket, but I just hated those things! But doesn't mean you will.

I saw the same thing. It looked like a good deal to me. I think that I am going to order it.

Basically, about half of them are good and about half are possible junk. You never know though. Sometimes there's a hidden gem in junk. I think you're probably better off getting a sampler of eight well known cigars. Please feel free to comment on any of these cigars if you've tried them. Let me know if they're good or nasty!

At any rate, a nice assortment to keep me occupied for a while!
