The JJ has slipped dramatically over the last couple years. JJ maduros are easily one of my favorites, when they are right, and they are "on". It takes a good year to make them smokable anymore, and they still lack the intense body they used to have.
I have to say my least favorite is the Cuban Classic. They make me want to chunk.

Haven't had a whole lot yet, but out of the ones I've had I've liked them all. I guess the one that impressed me the least was the Holts Fumadore.
[Reply]

Forgot about this one. :-)

Old Henry from Holt's

I have tried different ones and they all tasted like cheap spice.
[Reply]

Haven't tried many newer ones. Of those I have, the My Father is definitely not one I will buy again. I'm not a fan of the Tat reds either. My Father was just boring and not the flavors I like from him. The reds I've smoked have had too many construction issues for a NC.

CI blend probably, missed the mark for me

Tobacos Baez absolutely nasty.

I agree with the 601 and the Cuban Classic but I actually like the Miami quite a bit.

Strange......I too really haven't like any of the JJ's I've smoked!!

I was sooooooooo impressed with the CI Legend Yellow Label (by Pepin) gifted to me by Mr. B, I bought a box of 'em :-)
[Reply]

As a card carrying Pepin nuthugger this is heresy but I don't care for the JJ, Nacionales W and Vegas Cubanas.
[Reply]

The only one I think i've really disliked was CI legends. The ones some of you guys don't like are some of my favorites. You're all CRAZY!!!
[Reply]

Anyone try the cigar.com corojo label? I've heard good things about it...
[Reply]

Granted, I haven't tried all of the Pepin blends, but from those I've smoked so far, it's like sex: even when it's bad it's still pretty good. :-)

:-) Well said, sir!
[Reply]

I have and liked the one I was gifted very much.

I didn't care much for Tat Red Label. I also smoked one Pepin Blue that was great and one that was pitiful. Fumadores are nothing to write home about either.

Definitely the JJ
