Cienfuegos Aged Piramides Review

[Smokey Bob]

[SIZE=3]It only took one for me to become hooked.[/SIZE]

Recently, SmokeyJoe bombed me with some cigars I have never smoked before. Among them was a Cienfuegos Aged Piramides.

This is a cigar after my own heart.

Blended by Rolando Reyes Sr., this vitola measures 6.75" X 64.

The wrapper is an Eucadorian-grown Habana leaf, cultivated in 1999. I believe that means that it was harvested in 2000.

That's just the hype from the cigar catalogues.

This is a seriously HONEST cigar. It's not 'pretentious' in any way. It is a FULL-BODIED stick, with huge clouds of creamy smoke.

None of those overblown attributes here. This is a cigar. A cigar made from quality tobacco and rolled by craftsman. The ash and burn were perfect. The flavor was.... tobacco and a hint of coffee and leather.

I found myself ordering a box of 12 from CI before I finished the gift stick.

Thank you Joe for turning me on to this wonderful stogie.

I too have recently smoked these and I love them. They are a great smoke.

Thanks for the review. Haven't tried anything from the "Old Master" yet, but this make me want to.

I have one waiting to go and they smell awesome. Sounds like they taste just as good.

Robert, thanks for reminding me, I have had 12 of these sitting at the bottom of the cooler since April. Here are the photos I took when they arrived. I hoep you don't mind me illustrating your great passionate review.





Now I have to go dig to the bottom of the cooler.

PS They came in a bundle so that box is not it's original home.

Nice review. I have had a few of these and they are my favorite of the Rolando line.

Great review.

I just got five of these in the mail yesterday, now I'm really looking forward to it.

Great review! Thanks!

Now I have yet another cigar to my must try list!

Thanks for the pics! I'd far rather see a members pics than any by ad image!

Well, I just got a box of the Engine No.5 off Cbid for $40. It is a robusto size cigar. I hope it's as good as the pyramids. But for $2 a smoke I guess I can't complain.

Bringing up an old thread. I lit up this stick expecting to put it out about 1/2 way through, because its a puros indios product, and generally, I don't get along well with PI stuff... I am pleasantly surprised by how good this stick is. I am smoking the Engine #5 as well.. Might have to get me some after the credit card cools off from my Nub buying spree
