Anyone Heard of These Beauties
I just noticed CI has put up for auction several boxes of a smoke I have yet to ever run across. Esteban Carrera by Rocky Patel. 5X50 Robusto Maduros.

Anyone familiar with good old Esteban? It doesn't even show up in the Cigar Review Database. I gotta stay the heck away from that site.

Re: Anyone Heard of These Beauties
They are on liquidation at CI, so check those prices before bidding. $39-$49 for boxes of 20. I don't think "liquidating" a cigar line usually speaks to well for the quality.

Re: Anyone Heard of These Beauties
CI has them on deal, but other websites are selling the boxes for a bit more. I bid because they're Rockys. It's $35ish for a chance. I won't bid any higher, though.

Particularly if they're liquidating something that has never been seen before, but I really don't think that's the case here. With my limited space at the moment, I think I'll wait and watch for the reviews and see if any more turn up later.

Thanks for the input.

Esteban is the guy in the black cowboy hat on QVC selling guitars.

Re: Anyone Heard of These Beauties
I saw these also, i researched and the only thing I found is they are represented by the same group in LA, Ca. that handles Pepin and Padilla. Other than this, there is absolutley nothing bout this cigar anywhere. so i concluded i would stay away (even at CIs blow out price), i dont need another box sittin round gathering dust that ill never smoke!
