Nica Libre....surprise

[piperdown]

Bought a couple of sample packs cause they were cheap and figured, if nothing else can pass them off to friends if they're not too bad.
Now I just got them on Monday and I usually let them sit for a while after traveling but I decided that, what the heck, I'll try one.

Wow! What a surprise! Very nice little smoke (had the principe, 4.5X42).

Big hit of pepper right off the bat and then it mellowed out nicely. Bit of a burn issue that one would expect with a stick that hasn't adjusted but only had to touch it up a few times.

They aren't Padron's (as listed as an alternative to) but for the price they are a really good smoke.

I'm excited to see what a little age might do for them.

I picked up a 5'er of the torps and I was surprised at how nice a smoke they are. These will definitely be in my regular rotation in the future.

I picked up a box of the principe size a couple months ago and was going to let them sit a few more months before giving them a try but now you've got me curious. I may have to break one out and give it a go.

Great cigar for the price point.
