Pinay Cigar

[Billybats]

Was browsing my travel photos and found a pic of me smoking an Indenpencia1898 in Manila. Wasn't really impressed but I did hear people say they like Philippines  cigars. If you have tried, what were your thoughts?

Heard from a seasoned CC smoker who said Philippines cigars are pretty good.

Now this is interesting. I have coworkers going back for vacation to the Philippines next month. Will ask them to bring me back samples.

Ive tried Don Juan Urquijo, wasn't bad actually, and relatively cheap.  Might be worth trying to get some.

Interesting. Didn't know that the Philippines had local made Cigars.
My girlfriend lives in the Philippines, so I will see if she can get me a few to try.

         *The Fighting Cock cigars from the Philipines, the original formula, is a pretty good smoke. Some folks have compared this cigar to a weak Bolivar. The Double Happiness (which I'm sure is discontinued now) was more a novelty piece than a serious cigar, although I'm sure it had its defenders. I've not had any Don Urquijo Philipine cigars but am willing to give them a try some time.

I quite like the Tabacalera Coronas.

If you have a colleague heading up there, tell them to find downtown, not at the airport.

Downtown you will pick up a box for say USD60.  Airport prices will be tripple that.
