Popular Post X-Man Posted January 7 Popular Post Posted January 7 Not exactly a purchase, but a belated Christmas present. Can’t wait to give them a try as I have been away from NC in the past few years. First time seeing this mini Boveda pack too. Have a pleasant Sunday FOH! 17

Popular Post ctsigler317 Posted January 20 Popular Post Posted January 20 Jumped on the bandwagon and grabbed a couple boxes. 15
Popular Post Pmo13 Posted January 20 Popular Post Posted January 20 Had been hoping for a box of the Maduro, but those have yet to reappear on most sites. Absolutely jazzed to have a box of the Claro though, absolutely phenomenal after dinner sticks. 19
Nizzlefuzz Posted January 21 Posted January 21 Lots of Warped - La Colmena, Black Honey, Sky Flower, and Moon Garden. Excited to try the Black Honey because I'm a huge fan of La Colmena. I wasn't heavy into the hobby when the previous releases came out. 2

Excited to try the Black Honey because I'm a huge fan of La Colmena. I wasn't heavy into the hobby when the previous releases came out. Look forward to your thoughts on the Black Honey. It is much beloved. I bought the new one but haven't tried yet. Just because I wanted to give it another spin. In the past, I was not a fan. A dissenting opinion. I think the black honey is a mix of La Colmena and El Oso. I LOVE La Colmena but am not a fan of the El Oso. The Sky Flower is fire. Had my second Moon Garden yesterday. I liked it a lot but it is strong. I felt it for about an hour after I smoked it. Jason

Jason As I understand it, Warped had just partnered with the El Titan de Bronze factory to roll both La Colmena and El Oso and one of the rollers messed up one day and used the El Oso wrapper on a days worth of La Colmenas. Kyle went with it and the rest is history. I've heard in releases since they've tweaked the blend a bit. I agree about El Oso. Not that I didn't like it, it just didn't seem worth the cost for what it delivered. Sky Flower is the blend that turned me on to Warped. I think I have bought 6 or 7 boxes and have gone through about half in the past year. The new Moon Garden is a beast! Definitely one to space out in the rotation. 2
Popular Post Ford2112 Posted January 26 Popular Post Posted January 26 Decided to give these a shot. They smell like a forest fire mixed with foot! They taste surprisingly good! Robust little smoke with a sweetness to it. Not for everyone but with a fat morning coffee and an attitude like I usually have before 10 am ,I can dig it! Liking the classico a touch more than the antico. 14

Liking the classico a touch more than the antico. That style of cigar is remarkable good. Very different with the fire-cured tobacco and dry instead of humidified texture, but still great. I believe the Toscano is from Italy. The US has its own versions of that style sold by Parodi and Avanti cigars. 1

I have and prefer the 64. Love the natural too. Padron 26s are good too just my preference as I feel the 64 is a little more balanced. 1
