What a catch!!!
So I hit up the local shop today and they have a "Factory Overruns" section, which I usually skip over. However, I noticed these huge Salomon-size cigars for about $5 (including tax). Turns out, they are the Cuvee Rouge Salomons 7.25x57 from Cusano cigars. So I call up Joe Chiusano (local friend and owner of Cusano Cigars) and ask him about these. Well, turns out that the factory producing the cigars put on the wrong wrapper; they put on a Corojo when it should have been an Ecudorian Sungrown. So, they have a ton of these BEAUTIFUL cigars that they aren't going to put their packaging on. Man, these are nice.

If anyone wants me to pick up a few, let me know. I mean, when can you get a $15 cigar for approximately $5??? I was so pumped once I saw them and heard the story!

Thanks all!

Sounds like a steal...I have not yet tried any Cuvee/Cusano cigars...I did read the article in the recent CA on the company...definitely have to put them on the wish list.

I'd love to get a 5er let me know how? I've had the regular Rouge Salomons on order for months.
