I just saw the misprinted price Alex referred to in last months catalog, 5 Pre-embargos and a 5 count herfador for $50, now that would have been nice to notice about a month ago...damn!
good cigar, but just didn't think it was worth the price point, think there are better cigars out there for the price.
This. For 25$ there are some high end Fuentes, Padrons, and ISOMs I'd much rather smoke, though I am glad I have a couple PEs in my humi, because they ARE good cigars, just not quite worth the cost to me. It does have a very interesting, and enjoyable musky, aged flavor and aroma to it that it pretty cool. I did a comprehensive review (with, admittedly, dark, crappy photos), for my blog. Link is in my signature. One of the first reviews I did for the site.

i picked up one of those samplers and today I just ordered another 10, the price is a little high but if you can get a deal they are amazing!
Personally i will not pay $25 for ANY cigar. Sorry. Not doing it. I just think there are too many other GREAT stogies out there for 5 or 6 dollars. I have to think to myself...one of these or 5 of the others for the same amount of money. Always comes down to the other 5 for me. I am choking on paying $9 for the Liga Priv's out there. Anyone else with me on this or is it just me?
I'm on board, dowjr1. I do have one in my humi that was gifted to me about 2 months ago. However, I seldom pay more than $3-$4 each for my smokes. I smoke very few during the winter and keep a close check for good deals and stock up. I have about 150+ on hand which should get me well into summer.

See, I've gotten to a point where I don't smoke as often, but I smoke better. I would, in most cases, spend 25$ on a Padron 80yr. than on 5 cigars that aren't as good.

I don't think too many people are paying full price for these, but still I'm with you. $25 for one cigar is ridiculous for me and my funds. I don't think badly if anyone else thinks it's fine to spend this much but for me it's not a good use of money. I'm happy with my bulk internet orders and the occasional more expensive B&M smoke but $10 or more I consider expensive.
I've got 3 resting now. 1 i paid $25 for and the other 2 I got in the super-premium sampler a few weeks back. I'm looking forward to trying one, it might be as close to a cuban as I ever get!
I ordered one before but psyched myself out becuase of the $25 price tag and didn't really enjoy it. Not bad but it didn't meet expectations.
Smooth and balanced for sure, but a bit lacking on the complex flavors site. I am a full body/maduro fan so I may not be the best critic and typically cuban style cigars aren't my go-to cigars.
