Don't get your hopes up guys, I've smoked a few of these, kinda weird tasting. It's a flavored spliff, not really my thing, but I know a few folks that swear by them when they can't get rum crooks. Just my 2 cents.

Wow, lots of strong opinions in this thread. First off, let me apologize to anyone who ever smoked one of the early Avalon cigars. There were a lot of them released before they ever should have been, he you live and learn. Our new lines consist of the Numbers series, rolled in Miami and the Juke...

Nice review, glad you enjoyed the stick.

We have decided not to post the MSRP since we only sell direct to shops. The old line of cigars is gone. Some of the blends in the Number series are similar to the old Masters line. We went through a pretty major company re-structure and basically had a false start last year. Glad you liked the...

still working out a couple of bugs, everything should be operational by days end.

The new website is up. Just like Muddy in the the 77 comeback, we are "Hard Again". Come check us out at avaloncigars.com Let me know what you think.

Ji, you probably won't like the SB-1's so just send them over to Mississippi and I'll dispose of them for you :D:D . Seriously, stop waiting and spark em up, I had one of each yesterday watching the game, good stuff.

I'm smoking a Casa Fuente robusto as I write this, man this is a great smoke.I can't wait for RTDA this year, a box of these might have to make the flight home with me.

1989 while driving home from a ball game in New Orleans, I had a Hoyo Sultan, nearly made me puke by the time I got to the half-way point, I was pretty much only smoking Don Diego's and Fuente stuff at this time.

These are the best sticks Litto has done IMO. I keep these on hand by the box, they are one of my favs.

I've spent over a grand with Julian over the last year, always taken great care of me, and usually calls me when my favs are coming in.

These are different animals for sure. I've been a fan of NC erdm for years and these are completely different. I had one at RTDA and couldn't wait for them to hit the shelves. The stick I smoked at RTDA was great, tons of complex flavor with a perfect burn and draw, I really hated to let it go...

Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned whether some cigars are "worth" the money, because as anybody knows that is incredibly subjective to many different factors. What I really question about some lines, is the difference in blend,taste,exclusivity etc. Some high end examples of a certain cigar...

I love to read the reviews that my fellow BOTL come up with on some of my favorite cigars. I still view the world of cigars in terms of bang for the buck in most cases. What do you guys think about the advent in the last 10-15 years of super high-end blends in existing lines of cigars? For...

Great to meet you in the flesh Ji. Next time I'll have more time and we can smoke more and maybe get something to eat that will be a little more substantial. I finally made it home around 3:30 a.m.
