i would say the same, The quality totally out ways the other over-runs to the lesser grade fumadores, but the flavor was what stood out, Both were young, a little harsh, but the overrun smoked much smoothly. and knowing it WAS a corona, it impressed the hell out of me.
i say get them both, make your own decision, they are all GREAT for the money

Re: Pepin Bundles for ~$40!!!1

Got a bundle of Robustos in this morning, and tried one freh outa the bundle.
Got to say, quite tasty. That was a coin flip that went my way, great bang for the buck. Thanks for the tip!

Mando.......I better try another this evening just to be sure.

Re: Pepin Bundles for ~$40!!!1

I've decided to grab another bundle of the robustos based upon last night's smoke.

Too good at the price to let slip away.

Re: Pepin Bundles for ~$40!!!1

I ordered two bundles of the Little Havana Overruns - one of the Coronas and one of the Torpedos. They showed up today.

The wrappers on the two sizes are completely different. The coronas look like Cabaiguans - a very light brown with an occasional green splotch. However, they don't make a 5*44 Cabaiguan, so I don't know what these might be overruns of.

The Torpedo is a medium brown color. Most brands have a torpedo this size, so no guess what that one is either.

I'll probably wait a week before trying them.

Re: Pepin Bundles for ~$40!!!1

Ordered a bundle of robustos from Holt's. Smoked about 3 so far. They are quite good for the price. I will be giving some away so neighbors can enjoy Pepin smokes. Would recommend these to anyone who would like to try the Pepin brand or can't buy Pepin at their B&M.

Well, well, well.
I only discovered Don Pepin a few weeks ago (thanks CS!!) and was absolutely stunned - so I couldn't resist this.

Ordered a bundle of the coronas, MY FIRST "BOX" PURCHASE EVER!
Now I REALLY need that new humidor...

Get a cooler you'll need it eventually, much cheaper to just go ahead and do it. Ask me how I know Anyway I just got off the phone with holts and mine should be here tomorrow. I can't wait.

ok - I smoked the torpedo for you last night after finishing an Ashton Maduro and I'm smoking the first corona right now.

The wrappers on the corona and the torpedo are different. The corona wrapper looks like a Cabaiguan. The torpedo is a medium brown.

Both cigars are well-constructed with nice triple caps. Both have a nice draw, a good burn, and plenty of smoke.

The torpedo didn't taste very pepin-esque to me. It wasn't bad at all, but I wasn't tricked into thinking I was smoking a tatuaje. Still a good value smoke, though.

So far, I'm enjoying the corona better. I think it tastes similar to a Cabaiguan, too - a bit milder than some other Pepins. I love the corona size, also.

I'm tempted to see if Holt's has more coronas left, but I don't know where I'd put them. The 3 coolers are full now and a CS-special tatuaje sampler is on the way from new havana. Maybe if I chain-smoke this weekend.

Go Rockies!
