Smoked one yesterday and I could make this a daily cigar if they weren't $12+ a stick. Described as a cross between a Pepin Centurian and a Cubau.

Mi Barrio...yumm

We have had the "EL PURO" since the end of August, getting to box number three in the next couple of weeks. It is quite excellent, and yes, fairly expensive. For those that don't know, this is a seasonal blend by Pepin and the 601 guys, meaning it will change every three months. It is also VERY limited. Not like Opus limited, but pretty tight as far as amounts being made and all. I haven't heard much about the next one from the series. All I have heard is that it is as good as this one, which, obviously, means it will be excellent. I haven't had one cigar from these guys that I would throw away before finishing. Even the approximately 2 dollar a stick eo#21 is excellent for a value priced cigar. I guess it helps having Pepin in your corner.

Their customer service tom me as a B&M store is quite excellent as well. Eddie Ortega and his evil minions are freaking awesome.

I think the only complaint I have about them is I don't have enough time to smoke their cigars all the time, and I don't have enough stamina to smoke more than 2 of the green label trabucos in a row (BOOO me being a wuss)! But for real, the "El Puro" is freaking awesome.

Tampa Humidor has at least 3 or 4 boxes left in stock. Just give them a call.

Mi Barrio

I'm glad to hear that you all enjoy Mi Barrio. For those of you who haven't tried it I suggest you get your hands on some before the first round is out. For those who can't find it, feel free to contact me & I'll direct you towards the nearest Mi Barrio authorized retailer.

Keep smokin'

Found them at my local tonight, Serious Cigars. I always check his web but I guess these are a no web cigar because he doesn't have them listed. I picked up the one size he had, don't rememeber the name of the size but it was a monster!! I also picked up a couple of the My Father by Pepin, smoked it. I hope the Mi Barrio is better, I'm thinking it will be!
