Luv 'em but can't find 'em

**ashauler** · 10-19-2006, 02:01 PM

I have been searching to find something on a cigar that I picked up at an auction. It was a partial box (6), and the box itself was in rough shape. All I could make out on the bottom was Superior Cigars, Importer of fine Boutique cigars. The band on the smokes is black for the top two thirds, yellow below. In the black section is HABANOS all in gold letters except the O which is red, and in smaller letters and fancier style of printing the word Puros. In the bottom section, yellow background with black letters is the word fuerte.

These are fantastic, very strong....mouth tinglers and random thought generators for sure. The flavor is pretty intense with some cedar tones (listen to this newb go)

. Anyway, I have been to the Superior Cigars site and can find nothing.....and searching the word Habanos anywhere provides enough reading material to last me years......was hoping someone here could recognize this stick.

Any help appreciated.

I bought one of these the otherday at a local B&M (or at least I think we are talking about the same cigar) I was told it was a new brand, not sure of the manufacturer. The shop had two types, a reserve series in a torpedo and a fuerte.

go here:

If the link doesn't work just go to www.2guyssmokeshop.com and use their drop down menu.

There are three seperate pages for Habanos puros.
Regular,
Fuerte
and reserve.

Also you can order online from these guys but you might be able to find a better price out there.

Yep, that is the label. I googled my ass off and never saw this. Thanks for the link, back to lurking for me.....

I have been looking for them for about a week and delayed asking this question until I was so frustrated I couldn't resist.
And it was still a stupid question.

The ones that I have are not Torpedo, more of a Robusto shape, and the wrapper is very, very dark. Most definitely the fuerte. What is everyones impression of them? I really like them.

I have never even heard of them.

edit: and check the link that I posted. They have many varieties of the brand.

I just got back from following the link....looks like they used the same photo for all the different sizes listed. Does look like there are many to choose from. None of the local shops here have them, so I will have to find online if I want to restock the Humi. Thanks for the help, I wish I knew why they didn't come up when I googled......I'm really only half the idiot I appear to be.
