Box purchase pron...

[hoosier]

Here is my most recent box purchase. Letting them rest for a week or so and then I am going to try one.

My name is Hoosier and I AM a Pepin whore. Whew! I feel better already.

I have not seen this vitola by Don Pepin before. Is it new? They do look very tasty, but then again I say that about most cigars. :r

Very nice. Which size is that? Can't wait to get the box I ordered.

No, they are not new, but maybe not as well known as his Don Pepin line. Here's the link to the Vegas Cubanas on his site.

Looks like a toro to me. I've never heard of Vegas Cubanas, need to check 'em out :tu

The Vegas Cubanas have been around for a while now. Tasty, a bit on the milder side from the Tats, but more than the Cabaiguan. They are Nicaragua puros. I picked up half a box yesterday at my B&M (at 50% off sales price), who was closing out the Vegas Cubanas line (they won't selling as well as Tats).

It is the coronas. 5 1/2 X 44.

Haven't had the Vegas Cubanas, but that is a great size choice for Pepin blends. :tu

They look pretty nice...

Now I need to find some of those! Great pick-up! I had not known about them, are they pricey?

For those that these are "new" to, I suggest reading the Pepin Whore Unite thread if you'd like to keep up on Pepin's cigars.

Smoke one and then do a review! It'll answer alot of questions some of us have on them (atleast the ones here that haven't had em)

I've seen these for months on the Holt's website & catalog. I'm interested too. This & the Casa Royale might be purchased real soon!

I had my first and only a week or so ago, the corona vitola. It was an unbelievable cigar. I had the cuban diplomat rosado the other night and that was incredible as well.

I have been working my way through the cigar king Pepin Sampler, and I'm finding the less known blends are very nice, most being better than the well known brands.

No, not really. Regularly they were about $7 to $7.50 a stick. :cb

Do they have any left?

It is the coronas. 5 1/2 X 44.

That's the perfect size...


I'm in the camp that has never heard of them. Look pretty cool, though!

:tpd:I'd like to see a review on these.

I got the box for about $98, shipped. Best price I've found. Unfortunately, it was the last box in stock.
