I'm gonna pull out a Boris today...just to confirm my belief.

Is that burlap under the paper wrap?
[Reply]

Yep!

There has never been one before that I know of... haven't heard anything about a new one. I think Pete goes to too many things it would be too much work! LOL

I called 5 local shops this morning that hadn't even received any calls or had any plans for how they were going to handle the sales this year. The chase hasn't even begun around here yet.

Not saying it's not good, just not my favorite of the series.

I'm not a fan of Mexican wrappers, it just doesn't do it for me. The initial few puffs were great, I got tons of smoke and spice. After a 5 minutes into, it just went away. I was able to taste that sweet tobacco but that was mainly it, didn't change a whole lot to me.

Now, maybe it was because I opened one of the 10 count boxes as soon as they arrived at the shop. I will sit on my box for a little bit and see how that goes.

I'm not saying that the cigar sucked, I liked it. I was just saying it's not my favorite of the monster series.

Well, after smoking one, I think a lot of people are going to be surprised with the profile of this one, esp considering the idea of who it was named after...

Why will people be surprised? Just curious...

A Cojonu blend with the Mexican wrapper sounds mighty tasty to me! :-)
[Reply]

And I couldn't agree with you more. When I was smoking it, I pretty much said that to myself.
[Reply]

I have to agree. But I found it to be the most complex of the monsters I've smoked. Keep in mind that the Drac did nothing for me at all...either when it was released or presently.

Smoked a Boris tonight while watching Halloween II. Great cigar. But if I'm choosing between the Frank (the way they're smoking now), the Boris (I'm not even considering the Drac in the running) and the Face...I'm liking the Face as the front runner. Though the Frank was my favorite stick period, for some time... :-)

Haha, you can tell yourself you don't want them all you want, when you see that bundle/box it goes out the door :P too bad no where locally sells very much Tatuaje or I'd be able to get a box (october birthday for the win! Wife and parents like buying me cigars :-))
[Reply]

Saw a box on OH for $300 already... Some people have no shame

I'd love to get a box but not that way.

[Reply]

I'd overpay but not that much, dang what you said!
[Reply]

Your not supposed to ask double the price until this time NEXT year. Where's that stick with a nail in it...?
[Reply]

I was bracing for $175 maximum for the 13 stick box, no way i'd pay more than that for that few cigars, limited release or not
[Reply]

$300 for the box, class act...
