I had about three SFO's before the cart hit the water.
I'm usually pretty buzzed after about three of these. The Lanceros were pretty powerful, but the flavor was incredible. They were really great and the burn issue went away after they rested about three weeks. I can't wait to get some more! I just won't drive anything if I'm going to smoke more than one of these next time.
I have ordered some of these in a 6x50 and a corona.
I will let CS know when they are on the way. I just have a few robustos left and maybe a few 6x60.

On most days I smoke about 6 cigars. I try not to smoke more than one SFO a day and it is usually my last cigar of the day.
Thanks Rob, I was going to say it sounded like a sfo since I'm smoking one now, as my last cigar of the day! I'ts one ot the torp. I bought from you a couple of weeks ago and I don't know how I'm still typing.

Smoked a Special Forces Original Blend at a recent cyber-herf and the thing kicked ... my ... ass.

And that's why I like 'em.

You're right about the SFO being strong. They are a little too strong for me. My first one nearly made me sick. The sad thing is that it tasted great. I have a boot camp sampler waiting to try. I hear they are just a little more mellow in the strength department. They may suit me fine.

We sold out of the SFO yesterday. Hopefully our next shipment will be here in two weeks. New sizes too!

This cigar is too strong for some and too mild for others. If you smoke too many in one day you could drive your car off the road or a golf cart into the water! Be careful!

The "true" original blend (long before we went on the internet) was so strong that it took me more than 12 attempts before I could smoke the whole cigar. On the 2nd run until now, this is a step down from the first run.
Only 1 of 10 full bodied smokers could finish the first run on this cigar (June 2007)

Re: Just smoked a bit of a Taboo

Now I'm going to have to get one or two of the SFOs to try. Do not smoke in a tall building with windows.

Re: Just smoked a bit of a Taboo

Yes, the SFO is a fairly strong cigar for most folks. Slightly different strength levels with the different sizes.
I would recommend the Taboo Exotic Original if you want a step down in strength with a great maduro flavor. The only size we have in stock is the 6x60. The SFO's are completely sold out except for maybe a few samplers.
You can get in on the Exotic Maduro
http://taboocigars.com/category.sc?categoryId=48
at a great price with your CS Coupon Codes.
Large Taboo shipments coming in the next 2-3 weeks.
