Berger and Argenti Entubar

[ndak]

Have not seen to much info on these cigars and wanted to get other's opinions. I have smoked both the quad maduro and the regular entubar and have enjoyed both very much.

I've had mixed results with these. I've smoked about 2 or 3 each of the Robusto, the Torpedo, and the Corona Macho. Most have been pretty good but not great, the weakest area being the construction, which is what they trumpet as being terrific, but which on many of these has been average at best (pretty much the draws have been in the medium/stiff range). One of the robustos was an amazing smoke, but 1 out of 8 is not a good batting average for me.

My experiences are EXACTLY the same as yours. They're suppose to have a fantastic draw, but I have experienced a very tight draw on them all. I didn't really care for the flavors of it either in the first half. I think they're worth trying, but this isn't a stick I will keep on hand.

Love hearing opinions of others. I found the construction just the opposite with a great draw and razor sharp burn.

The Quad Maduro is stellar, the others just OK.

I've only had the Entubar but I liked it enough to buy a box. Draw was great, burn was good. Flavors in the torpedo seemed better than the DC but both good.

Smoked one of these tonight at an event. The first third was pretty interesting. Floral I guess is the best way to describe it. This continued through the second third and in the last third I had some fluttering tastes of black pepper. Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan. It was mild, though the guy at the event indicated they'd be more medium to full.

The construction on mine was great, but I saw at least two others that started to burst anad unravel. My draw was perfect though.

Overall I personally wasn't impressed with this beyond the draw. It's a far cry from what I usually smoke and I certainly wouldn't pony up the $11 price tag that is the MSRP.

I ended up finishing it and almost immediately pulling out a Tat Noella to get back to something I prefer.

I have yet to have a bid experience. Favorite is the regular Robusto.

Not a terrific smoke in my opinion.

Where can I find these on the West Coast?
