I am NOT one who is big on cheap cigars or bundles, even. But on BinDerSmokeDat's recommend, I bought a bundle of Nicaraguan Factory Corojos (Cuban Corona size) from JR's. Bundle of 50 for $30 plus shpping... under $1 each!!??!!
I wanted cheap smokes for the garage, for giving to friends, and whatever, and I'll be darned if I didn't smoke my first one last night and I have to say NOT BAD! But for under a buck, BRILLIANT!!
Tastes vary of course, but I thought it was a pretty good smoke. Thanks BinDer!

I heard about stogemiester's love for them. Didn't he send them to donshenck as a sort of botched assassination attempt. He should rot in jail for such a dirty trick. I hear don liked them ok. Must be related to Tiny tim somehow. You guys crack me up.
Hard work may pay off eventually but laziness always pays off now.
Not before he sent me some to try. He gave me a raving review that I couldn't refuse, so I said if you like em so much, I'll try em. Worst mistake I've made in a while. I guess if he likes them....
I had 3 from Tim. they weren't offensive in any way. They were just a very boring Nic Cigar, and very ugly. Very, very ugly.

I never sent anyone a factory Nic Coro! I bought that baccarat for Don, PMP!I dont stock them and I tried a Baccarat when I didnt know any better and it almost ruined me for life. What about those Don Tomas Candela you rated a 95 Idesign??????

The NFC's have been a favorite of mine since they first came out in JR's catalog. I'm currently waiting for them to have more; scheduled for later this month or September. I can't remember who all I sent some to, although prcaptain did get some, but trial cigars are just that; to try!
They are very typical of the Nicaraguan taste. I've been out of them for so long, I can't remember how "ugly" they were (as prcaptain refered to).
Once the 7.25x54 size is in stock, I'll be getting more!

Matasa Factory Rezagos, Nicaraguan Factory Corojos, there all the same. Hey Don Tomas Candela are the shiznito. Almost, and I do mean almost, as good as that fake Coheeba you sent!
I still have about 120 churchills left from the original release. Trying to see if age does any good for these. CC and Churchills are the best of the lot. IMO. Wrappers seem slightly darker than others I have had.
