God of Fire?
- Thread starter andysc83
- Start date
a little gunpowder and you'll be blown away for sure.
I've smoked 2. The first one was ok (Carlito 2006 robusto), but I was expecting great. The second one was alot better, don't remeber which one but it was a churchill.. I remember picking up a unique flavor, which was very enjoyable in the second. Don't remember what that flavor was though.
Overall, I have a few in the humi that I will smoke but won't be picking anymore up.

Imo the best NC out there, it is the only NC that is as balanced and complex as a CC.
I smoke 10-15 per year and they are a bit expensive but well worth it!
I had a couple with me on my roadtrip and handed them out to my buddy's and they just as me hardly ever smoke NCs and most of the said the same thing, best balanced NC!
I prefer the Double Robusto.

Tip: Don't EXPECT any cigar to blow you away. It's just asking for a let down. This should be a pretty good stick, sure, but don't expect to be blown away.
The God of Fire is a good blend, imvho, and if you like subtle but sophisticated cigars, this will be right up your ally. If you're after flavor-bombs full of pepper or what not, you might want to let it age for a while until you're palate can appreciate it more. But if you like the Fuente's other medium-bodied blends (Don Carlos Anneversary, Casa Fuente, etc), then you'll probably like this one too.
In Cuban terms, this is a Cohiba and not a Bolivar or Partagas. The flavors aren't in-your-face. Also, the God of Fire will improve with age, so there is no harm in letting it sit for a while.

I prefer the Carlito but they both smoke great if as others have stated you aren't expecting a Pepin profile. Price is a factor considering I can smoke both a Cohiba Magicos Maduro and a Boli GM for the same price as one GOF.
Close. :grin:Good $8 stick MU?

I really like this cigar,
Ive had a couple but loved the 2006 Don Carlos Robusto!
Now the debate - is any cigar worth this much $?
I got a few for about $13 ea and they were worth it.
But im also not sure any cigar is worth much over that amount.
