Who makes Maria Mancini cigars?

[RumblePen]

Couldn't find the answer anywhere on the net. The packaging looks very similar to Camacho, from the box to the wrappings and the inner graphics.

Its Nestor Placencia. I'm almost positive. I recall seeing an article with nestor in it and several ads followed throughout the magazine. Low and behold one with Maria Mancini in it and if I recall it claimed they were by the man himself, nestor.

I am CRAVING one of these cigars.. I have considered buying a box lately but there are still several other cigars that come first.. I use to smoke these things ALL the time but they are impossible for me to find now.

They are made by N.A.T.S.A. in Nicaragua. I don't know if Nestor is involved with this company or not.

N.A.T.S.A. makes Mayorga, Remedios, Jose Marti, Flor de Farach, La Finca & Villar de Villar, among others.

I don't care WHO makes them.....all I know is that the ones I have had are DELICIOUS!!

I was gifted two torpedoes that were box-pressed and about 6" long. I didn't know anything about them-but after having one, well, all I could say was WOW!

I was SO happy to find out that these are very affordable smokes. In fact, I haev recently put this one on a short list of cigars taht I am going to buy by the box.

Here is the place I have found to have the lowest price (so far):

20 nice fat torps for about 46 bucks is a steal!

haha! Thanks for that link boobs! I've been trying to find something better than JR!!Now.. if only to convince my wife..

I got two boxes from JR's awhile ago, Robusto Largas, 1 H2000 and 1 maduro, 30 bucks a pop. Was either a weekly special or a midnight madness. Not too long ago they ran the same deal again, this time with Toros or something like that. Same price, 29.95. It's worth checking JR's once a week just for that.

I also picked some up on that weekly special from JR's, I'm glad I did because they are fantastic.

I've had about two that have been gifted to me. Very tasty and they would become a staple in my humi if they weren't so expensive.

???

They can be had for 1.50 a stick. And I thought I was a cheapskate

Hmm.. I am cheap, but a $1.50 a stick is good for me. Apparently my pricing index has been skewed. I've just seen boxes in the $100+ range, although admittedly I haven't looked too hard for them.

What a coincidence.....I ordered a sample pack of eight Magic Mountains yesterday from JR's.....20 buckos for the eight. Never tried them but look forward to 'em based on all the kudos I've read.

I have noticed that they are made in Honduras, but was pretty sure they were a N.A.T.S.A. product, but I could be wrong (it's been known to happen ).

Does anyone here know?

BTW, they are a dang fine cigar for the money IMHO.

D'oh! I just realized I was reading this thread under the influence last night.

I was reading Maria Guerrero instead of Maria Mancini. There was a lot of beer consumed this weekend.

I have a box of Magic Mountains in my humi that I love. They are a great smoke and a great price.

I have some these MAJIC MT. I think that have been sitting in my humi for 8-10 months and had one about a week ago. Your right they are a great smoke. The Mayorgas I liked too but don't they dye there maddys? Plus they all have been a tight draw too.
