Re: Is this a good deal

I guess it's OK if you like Fonsecas a lot....very mild cigars in my opinion. I definitely won't be buying this. The question is, have you tried Fonsecas and are they worth it to you? That's the only true measure.

Re: Is this a good deal

its efinately not a sampler you want if you want to get to know lots of different brands, more if you want a good deal on Fonsecas.

Re: Is this a good deal

I think Fonseca's are going to be way too mild for you, knowing what cigars you like. Dont get it.

I have tried the F series and it wasn't bad. The others are very mild. Wait a week and I'm sure they will have a better sampler then.

No worries, bro.
My response was not directed at you, per se. It was only to point out how eerie it was to read Tom's reply. I'm not a big Fonseca fan either.
My advice? Avoid getting caught up in the Cbid frenzy. (I know - I've been there). Take a deep breath and be selective. There are ALWAYS tons of choices.

Re: Is this a good deal

I've got some marginal smokes in my humi that I probably won't get around to smoking because I pulled the trigger on some cigars that were on special.

My wife will be proud to know that I fall for the "on sale" tag too. I'd never admit it to her; only to you guys.

Great minds think alike?

Creeps of a feather flock together?

I've done that before here too Peter, it always makes me think how much us Gorillas think alike....it is creepy sometimes.

I can throw together a few Cu-Avana's, for you to try. However, they are Belicosos and not Robustos. If you are interested, pm your addy...No funds required.
