Good review....I likes um, specially the Grand Reserva #1 corojo.

I gave a few away to some of the CU members nobody liked um ,to spensive......it was a waste of good cigars.

I believe I was a recipient of a J Fuego cigar from you, Rudy... but IIRC I think it was a natural? Where as I was thankful for the "gifting" ;) , I really didn't get any enjoyment from this cigar. It had absolutely nothing to do with the cost or presentation, the cigar I had was flavorless and bitter in spots. I believe I may be in the minority here, though, as these are getting good reviews. Do domestic cigars go through a "sick period" like some cubans do? Maybe that was the issue, I really don't know.

I usually don't relate cost with quality, especially when it comes to cigars. I've smoked many $2 cigars that I've liked over some $10 smokes. I am a big fan of the LHO's where many have trashed 'em. Cest la vie... SWYL...LWYS.

Oh man Ron... in my experience... i'd say DEFINATELY! One example... LGC's, to me, have always had an easily detectable, very pronounced sick period. They are really great fresh. Up to only a couple months. Maybe less. Nice and earthy and spicy at the same time. But then they turn sour and acrid with a major amonia component to their flavor. Set them down for a year and they are an altogether different cigar again. They certainly have a very different taste when they are aged than when they are fresh. But just as satisfying IMO.

btw... nice review. nice pic. thanks for taking the time to post it.

^ Thank you. I tried to review a cigar a looooong time ago when I first started smoking and pretty much screwed the whole thing up.  So I desperately wanted to do a good one now that I'm a *cough* aficionado.

 I must say this is a pretty cool site. I appreciate having the feedback and hope to meet up with you in the future.

Ya know, having your brain pried open with a chemical crowbar many years ago allows one the ability to see things in a different light....even if the LIGHT is dimming

I can't say enough about the hospitality I experienced from the SonGoku boys. Puffer, posting for boys (and girls) who rename the airplane as 'Champion'^{TM, V.
