Put that on my list of things never to try :P I have wondered if Cigars are intentionally going down an easier to produce mass market line to usher in a new group of casual smokers..

Always good to read your work Jose.

I sit here smokind a Vegueros no2 from 2000...full of floral/herbal flavours.

An excellent cigar, unique in many respects.

Far removed from the fat, flavourless rubbish that will dutifully follow the Open ranges.

I may be worng but my impression is that Habanos want to introduce a brand to beginners, like Monte Open.

This ring has an appeal to the young smokers.

Young smokers have plenty flavorful options to chose from already, now posers who hate the taste of smoke and want to smoke a fat tasteless cigar to show off are well served with the Eagle.

It's about marketing and not flavour that I am talking about.

Sorry to hear they are such a disappointment. Always hate it when great cigars get discontinued only to have mediocre to subpar cigars released.

Agree Oliver,

the newly released Vegueros Mananita I had was quite pleasant and, again, the band was liked for its "retro" ( Art Deco ) design. But taste & design is a battlefield ... yes.gif

I'm a "younger" smoker. That band has no real appeal to me. Looks like a cheap gimmick
