SCgarman Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Received one of these cigars a couple of weeks ago when I met Hamlet at a Cigar Dave event in Buffalo New York. Size: Toro 6X52 Wrapper: Mexican San Andres Binder: Mexican and Brazilian Filler: Nicaraguan Pre light aroma: Rich tobacco, Black pepper, Cloves Construction: Well rolled, Firm Note: This is a blend personally made by Hamlet, but the cigars are NOT rolled by him. They are rolled in Nicaragua and Hamlet's VISA will not allow him to travel there so the blend was created at Rocky's Burn lounge in Naples Florida. Cigar is medium bodied, very smooth and refined. Aged tobacco flavors, notes of espresso, cocoa, mild pepper. Creamy mouthfeel. More balanced and complex than many NC's than I have smoked in recent memory. Very long finish on the palate. My Score: I will not give one. All I can say it is a very nice blend and I recommend you try one! This cigar will be officially released on the market in September 2015. 4
Puros Y Vino Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Excellent writeup. Have one myself. Been waiting for the right time to fire it up. Better do so soon if release imminent!
saintsmokealot Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Classy way to review Sir. I never had a chance to meet the Gentleman however I do look forward to trying his new cigar based on his reputation as a master blender and human being.
treberty Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Where can those cigars be purchased? Not this one in particular, but the line? Never saw them...
Andrew11 Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Thanks for the review. Can't wait to try these.
El Presidente Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Where can those cigars be purchased? Not this one in particular, but the line? Never saw them... They should start being seen in late September at B&M's. I will e-mail Hamlet today and see if i can get an update.
SCgarman Posted August 31, 2015 Author Posted August 31, 2015 He is a great man!! So humble, I see why you all love him.
Bartolomeo Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Great review, great smoke, thanks for sharing! Bart
SCgarman Posted August 31, 2015 Author Posted August 31, 2015 A few more pics. Hamlet opening up a welcome to the US gift I gave him. He was quite surprised! Bottom pic, the master at work making a 2 foot long Culebras to be auctioned off for charity. 1
Optic101 Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Great review and pictures. Trust it may take some time till they are spread around the world to get my hand on some.
Popular Post El Presidente Posted August 31, 2015 Popular Post Posted August 31, 2015 Spoke briefly to Hamlet this morning. Have teed up a long cal tomorrow. In short, his Tabaquero cigars were an IPCR success being the top selling premium cigar line at the show. There will be no problem getting your hands on some (end Sept/October). I will do a lengthy post on the cigar and hamlet tomorrow after catching up with him. I am sure we all congratulate him on his success 5
Lotusguy Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 I'm going to wait for the Lancero vitola 3
SCgarman Posted September 1, 2015 Author Posted September 1, 2015 I'm going to wait for the Lancero vitola Funny, I asked him about rolling long and skinnies. He basically said they are harder to roll. Apparently he is partial to the Salomon vitola.
Colt45 Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Thanks for the review - I'll surely make an effort to try the corona when they become available - best luck JP

Dara Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 Smoked one of these at a friends BBQ last month and passed it around with the guys and all were impressed (although Ajay was passing around a Cuban Davidoff and a Hoyo Churchill). Looking forward to seeing these in Irish shops soon.....well done Buddy, it's a fine cigar worthy of your name!
