cant say ive tried any of the above mate, but try not to worry. i often take punts on N.C samplers you may find a real Gem!

[Batler]

For the price it's good. The guy was telling me there are some real good ones in that selection but they're not very well known

[Ethem]

Well the best part is if there's any crappy ones you're not stuck with any more and any good ones you can discover and order more. Hoping to discover some good ones for regular smokes. Starting to sound like a dating ad now aren't I? Married late 20's looking for discreet dark vitola to spend quiet evenings with lol

Save some space for the Cubans man!

The plan is to have a 2nd (larger) humidor for the cubanos. These will be held in a makeshift tupperdor until I can find one I can actually afford lol

[Ethem]

Ps u know the situations bad when ur making a makeshift of something that's already a makeshift of something else lol

[AlexG]

Had the two Gran Habanos, very nice sweet smokes. a bit 1 dimensional, but good. i found them to be a very loose draw, so punch them if you arent a fan of that

[Ethem]

Thanks for the tip, Alex. Aren't NC's generally very dull as u say?

The Pepin Garcias are all very good, really liked the blue label I had. Gran Habanos are great, prefer the 3 over the 5 though, as the 5 is a bit strong and overbearing for my liking. The Spanish Galleons are a decent budget stick. You can get the at under 2$ a stick but certainly better than some shite out there.

Had the Serie G as well, not a fan prefer the Vs over the Gs by a long shot.

[SeanP]

Serie G Special G is my favourite short smoke. Can't go wrong with the Pepins if you like spice. Jesus Fuego blends some very good cigars but not familiar with those, can't say I've ever had a bad one though. Like Ethem said, if you get a bad one it's done and you don't have to suffer through another.

Enjoy!

[Ozzy]

Just wondering - is this a regular sampler, or is it a time based offer

[Ethem]

I think this was a newsletter special.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Looking forward to trying them all

[AlexG]

Thanks for the tip, Alex. Aren't NC's generally very dull as u say?

havent really found that in my experience, i tend to find they pack more flavour in than a cuban. I have heard it said that this is intentional, as they dont have the cuban tag attached so need to find something else that will make them sell. but ive had NCs that are a flavour explosion from go to woe, and ones that are bland, also had CCs that are full of the flavour that we know and love, but also had CCs where i may aswell just be smoking some bark.

[Ethem]

but also had CCs where i may aswell just be smoking some bark.

You've obviously had some of Jose L. Piedra's finest, sir. Lol
