Newest addition to the Hummi

[openendstraight]

Box of Tatuaje Noelas
Box of DPG Black 1950 Toro

After buying these the shop owner threw in a few sticks he thought I would like....

601 Cubao No. 5
Illusione 4/2 G Churchill
601 GL Trabuco


I know about the Tat's and DPG I bought, but does anyone know about these others?

Wanted to give a thanks to Chuck, he told me about his place. www.pheasantcigars.com

Paul is a nice guy.

601s are DPG I believe. I have one lying around but haven't smoked one. Illusiones get a lot of love around here (and from Cigar Aficionado) and are supposedly "Cubanesque" as well. A bro here gifted me a couple of little ones, have yet to try them though.

BTW I'm jealous of your new additions

 

[RigilKent]

the Illusiones are great

I love the Pepin Black Toros, Down to 3 from my last box. Time to re-load...:smokingbo

Yes, the 601s are a DPG cigar made in Esteli for United Tobaccos. Couple of guys named Eric Espinosa and Eddie Ortega with EO Brands appear to be ram-roding this outfit. All Nicaraguan, the Reds are Habano Natural, Blues are maduro and the Greens are Oscuro. I like these sticks but they can get a little pricey for what they are. JMO

EO Brands holds the 601 name, but yes they are made DPG.

dion makes the illusione. dan at nhc sells a lot of them. they aren't bad, but i like the cruzado better.
that noella is a great little stick. did anyone ever get to try the "reserva" noella that pete put out a while back? that was a powerhouse!

 

[Anthem]

So I hear. Hey dude.

Is the Cubao a medium brown stick with a brown label? If so that is not the DPG. I had a Cubao at Cigar King in Scottsdale. Really nice stick, with chocolate notes.

The Cubao is another DPG made for EO.

In reference to the 601s, here's a BOTL Blog post I made about a year-and-a-half ago:

Did not know that. The one I had did not say 601 just Cubao.
