Quintero's Finally Made It

JP Cazadores isn't as "casual " as the QF. Needs a bit of a run up - I tend to think about whether I really want to take one on or not and change my mind about half the time. Takes longer to smoke, is quite heavy in the nicotine dept. and can be a hard draw.

All good points, but I wasn't trying to compare one to the other as equals in terms of strength, etc.  I like your use of the term "casual" in comparing the difference in the two sticks.

The few I have had were decent.  Not earth shattering but to be expected.

Gone through two boxes now, both 2014s.  Another on the way.  They are a nice daily smoke, but I find them one dimensional in terms of flavor profile.  Construction, burn and smoke time are all fine for a $3 cigar.  I also like them for when I have friends over who aren't cigar smokers but want to smoke.  I don't feel too bad when they toss a half smoked cigar  I recommend them.

I really enjoy the quintero nacionales.  It has very nice sweetness.  I've had some tough draws on mine even after dryboxing.  I may use the fridge and/or freezer trick to dry them out a bit.

I've been enjoying the Petit Quinteros frequently for the last couple of months. On my second box. Not a "great" cigar, but certainly a "good" cigar, given its price point and production values. Uniformly good draw/burn and full flavored. What's not to like (especially when my source has an attractive two-box deal)?

Thinking about trying some Londres Extras. Thoughts?

Has anyone tried a significant number of the new Quintero Tubulares? Are they good?

Great question! I was wondering the same thing.
