Do NOT light any of these! Quick now, box em up and ship them overnight to SMOKE20

Believe me I am telling you this for own good!

Run, do not walk to the nearest shipping place/Post Office!

Go MAN! GO LIKE THE WIND!

Whew! ... that was a close one!

I have the same sampler and have burned two already. Can't remember which ones now, but they were both well constructed, burned evenly, had enough strength for my tastes. My only criticism is they burned fast...I was down to the nub too soon...wanted more....and no I am not a hoover puffer

Re: Don Pepin 5 pack

I went through one of these a while back. Pepins tend to be spicy. I found the blue and the black the strongest and most peppery. Liked the black best, then the blue.

Did they burn too fast? Or were you puffing away faster then normal?
I find myself puffing faster on Pepin's cigars.

+1. There isn't a Pepin cigar I don't like. My favorite is the JJ Maduro and the Cuban Classic Robusto.

No, I was not puffing faster or harder...Pepin's just seem to burn faster, at least the ones I've tried...a small sample...

Re: Don Pepin 5 pack

Well i smoked the the blue lable one on my way to work today. I was impressed with the construction and how the cap lasted to the bitter end. I have run into some cigars where the cap is falling apart halfway through the smoke but not this one. It deffinately had a peppery tone during the first third then that calmed down and I noticed some earthy undertones and the pepper came back slightly for the last little bit. I can't wait to try the rest.
