Which is the best Don Pepin Garcia?

C-LOVEC-LOVE Posts: 1,407 ✭✭✭
The only one I've smoked is the blue label and it's one of my favorite cigars. I recently ran out of the blue and am thinking of placing a order but would also like to try some of the others. I would appreciate some opinions on the different lines. Thanks in advance.

    I like the JJ Maduro. The Cuban classic is pretty good but not at the top of my list for DPG. The El Centurian is great. San Cristabol is another great stick. I'm assuming you have tried the My Father line?

    Are you interested just in cigars with his name, cigars he blends (like Tats), and/or cigars his son blends (like My Father)?

    I'm asking about ones with his name, Cuban classic, series JJ, series JJ maduro. I really like Tats and the El Centurions, haven't really tried a whole lot of the My Fathers. Thanks for all the feedback fellas, I should have been more specific about which ones I was asking.

    Now that could just send this tread through the worm hole. The Tat. Miami is one of my favorite smokes. But, these are not blended by Don G. are they?

    The original JJ was amazing, the new one is good as well, but the wrapper changed and it has a bit more power. i still like it alot. Teach gave me an original JJ maduro and it was unreal, I since got my hands on some as they are gone from the market. The blue lancero is amazing as well.

    When did they make the wrapper change on the JJ Maduro? I recently bought a handful a few weeks ago an the one I have smoked was pretty powerful. Just curious.

    Have to agree. Those old JJ's are fantastic. Of the current stock, I would go with the El Centurian or Blue (especially in a lancero).

    Perhaps it was a bad stick, but I had the El Centurion this week. It was the first stick I had to put down in a LONG time. Tasted like asshh.

    The only other dpg I've had is My Father and I've enjoyed those.

    iagree that those are some great smokes right there. i still think the DPG blue is the best out of that factory. if you can get one with about 5 years on it, you will be one happy camper.

    I have not had a ton from DPG as I keep going back to the Blue because I like it so much...one of my favorite sticks...so my vote is Blue
