Ordered my first Taboo's

So I ordered my first sampler of Taboo cigars. Just heard so many guys drool over these cigars. Would like some feedback on what I can expect from some fellow BOTL.

Re: Ordered my first Taboo's

just got mine about a week ago. Wanted to wait for a while and let them rest, but could not hold off. I smoked one of the SFBCs a few days ago, and it was truly a great cigar. I am not real good at picking up the different flavors, but this cigar had a taste that I haven't tasted in a cigar yet. But it was good. You will not be disapointed.

Re: Ordered my first Taboo's

This is one of those brands where I'd say there really is something almost everyone will enjoy in the bunch.

Re: Ordered my first Taboo's

Overall it sis a very good batch of sticks in my opinion, the Customer Service is top notch so that really helps as ordering over the net can be such a hit or miss affair with others.

The Twist for me is an everyday stick.

Re: Ordered my first Taboo's

I've only smoked one of the twists I have, but it was amazing. Also, the customer service is amazing, I think Rob shipped my order out within 90 minutes of me placing it.

Re: Ordered my first Taboo's

The unique things that really stand out about Taboo for me are:

1. The cigars are very consistent, from start to finish. They never tend to get bitter/ nasty toward the last third like so many.
2. The cigars are very creamy and smooth (twists especially). No matter which strength (including the SF powerhouse), they remain very smokeable.
3. Rob is first class all the way, great to do business with!

Other than that, nothing special.

Re: Ordered my first Taboo's

Make sure when you go to work on Monday to get a direct deposit forms and send it to Rob at Taboo. His cigars and service is out of this world. If you are like most of us plan on spending big bucks with him not because he charges a lot but because he offers such great deals and service.

Re: Ordered my first Taboo's

Amen! SFBC is truly a tasty stick. Really enjoyed it. Bought a box/bundle last week. Tried Twist some time back. Really enjoyed. Bought a box. See a trend here? Anyway, way to go Rob.
