Cheap cigars ? What up with that?!
Oh, my deary dear, do I have a treat for you...
No, no, nothing like those dog rockets that I was handing out at NERDS on Friday night. And I do apologize profusely for those. I bought those from JRCigars on a whim, and based on some good online reviews (obviously from people with inferior taste). You might recall that I hid the remainder of that box away after the first time. Maybe they will be better. In about 2015. Onyx had been a good consistent brand in the past, but apparently they have suffered recently, and have become rather harsh and crass flavored.
But this past week I ventured to the local Cigar Emporium Extraordinaire,
Two Guys Smoke Shop in nearby Salem, NH, one of, if not THE, biggest cigar shops in the country. I went there to buy a box of my preferred Padron 2000's for the trip to EOM, but the guy at the counter put me onto one of their house brand, "Dos Hombres" (get it?) ,
box-pressed Dominican bundles. He lit me up a complimentary out of their display case, and I want to tell you... these things rock. Very comparable to the Padron X000 line even though they are not Honduran. And yeah, that's right... just $2 a stick. I intend on smoking a whole bunch of these things unless/ until they change their pricing.
They were so inexpensive that I also scored a bundle of the
Dos Hombres Dominican Robusto paretos with a Conn, wrapper that will be more suitable for those of a more, ummm... delicate palate. But being a lover of the habanos, I know that the box pressed robustos will be right up your alley, Missy.
So... tell me. Who else's mouth is watering right about now?
