Which blend do you prefer, the Carlito or Carlos? and why?
[Reply]

For me... I prefer the Carlos. :-)
[Reply]

Carlos, definately, amazing flavors, a really nice and complex stick
[Reply]

Sad to say I have never had the pleasure of smoking one . :-)

Are they really worth the $$ they demand?


Chris.....

Carlos. Neither one is worth the $$ though, IMHO. :-)
[Reply]

Nope... and I am a Fuente whore...the GOF is just one cigar that I don't care for at all and especially not at that price point. I think I may have one more single left of them...

I've got two sleeping. I just can't bring myself to try one....maybe when I finish finals this semester

I liked the Carlos a bit better, seemed to have a smoother flavor than the Carlito, though they were both excellent cigars (I have only had the 2006 blend). Are they worth the money? These are in my top 5 NCs that I have tried, so yes, but I only enjoy one every once in a great while (usually for a special ocassion, but sometimes not). When looking for something smooth, strong, balanced and packed with flavor, this hits the spot for me.

We were just discussing these in chat. In my opinion, the Carlos is a better smoke. However, I think the Fuente people are really milking the price on these. A year ago, I couldn't find these cigars anywhere. Nowadays, I can order them on CI. The downside is that the price has stayed the same. I can't afford to be a GOF smoker, but I do enjoy them.

Would love to give one (or more) of these a shot one day, but have never even teen them being sold. Are they only available at Casa Fuente?
[Reply]

I like the Carlos better but I agree with everyone else. They are not worth the price.
[Reply]

Nope. You can get them anywhere from CI, as said above, to Thompson and really almost anyone. You can also go to GodofFire.com and look up the dealer closest to your location.

As for my preference I like the carlitto, because they are easier to find. :-)
[Reply]

Ok... So the general consensus is the Carlos. I'm a huge Fuente whore and I haven't yet tried a GOF. I couldn't resist and had to do it. Just ordered a box of 4 tubos.

Carlos Definately!!!
[Reply]

I prefer the Carlito blend. I have smoked both. I like the Cameroon wrapper flavor better than the wrapper from Ecuador that is in the Don Carlos.

Its ok Jon, I just go bombed with one of each blends.... I figure I'll let em rest for a week or two and do a side by side comparison.
