A good Culebra?

[Dr. Xikar]

I don't know why, but the shape caught my eye. I really want to smoke a Culebra now. Can anyone recommend me one that won't be too expensive, and won't taste like a novelty smoke? Also, being fairly easily available would be helpful.

Thanks guys,
Jeremy

Illusione 23
Partagas (cuban)

that is all, do not buy the Medusa

Partagas is great
Johnny O can be great with a few years on it.

 

[Dr. Xikar]

Thanks for the suggestions

For record, I don't have access to Cubans, so that Partagas will have to wait... I'll look for the Illusione 23 though

Thanks

those two would be the only two i would suggest although the illusione is a bit one dimensional...

I have a few of the LFD ones as well and they are pretty easy to find. Not sure I have smoked them but have rarely been let down by Litto

 

[bdc30]

dumb question, but do you break these apart and smoke individually or just light up/cut all 3?? lol

Smoke them individually...

The LFD Culebra is also on there.

If anyone has an Oliva Serie V Culebra... I'm jealous.

YES you can cut, light, and smoke all 3 at the same time. Thought would be like smoking a 90RG stick, not took cool looking. Most come with a ribbon or string to unwrap and gently unwind the cigars. Best things is bring those to a HERF or get together and share them with a couple brothers. :ccowboy:

The LFD Lancero Culebra is amazing, each of the three have a different wrapper on it (Oscuro, Natural and Maduro I think)...only 200 made though...

I have tried and enjoyed both the Partagas and Illusione culebras.

 

[Treinenwj]

I had the LFD culebra a while back and thought it was pretty good.

Same here, I had one with Eddie and Kevin when I was in LI for work and we all thought the Illusione was missing something. But the Partagas was awesome

 

[terrantheman]

I personally love the opus culebras.

Well like the LFD too many folks have not seen those. I bet it was good.......

LOL I am totally kidding. I have seen the LFD though and they are a little hard to find but I have seen them.

 

[whodeeni]

You got that right Dave!:hysterica

 

[Superbad]

Davidoff makes a Culebra as well.
