So I was looking through a cigar catalog and see the Mi Barrio cigars with these two dudes just chillin on the band and thinking WTF was this guy thinking. Any one else have a crazy brand they have found and were any of them "good"

    I thought the same thing. But it's a Pepin Blend so it' either good or amazing.

    The "two dudes chillin" on the Mi Barrio band are Don Pepin and I believe one of the guys behind EO brands, the company that does the Mi Barrio line, so it isn't really a strange band at all... And it happens to be an awesome smoke.

    Is it because 40 of them for 115 bucks seems like a good deal then ( I still think that a pretty lame band as far as markiting would go)

    The new 601 bands are pretty bad. Devil Weed is a pretty bad name.

    +1 I reviewed a Mi Barrio over @ Wbfiller.com it should still be in the review section as well just several pages back most likely. It's a solid smoke and won't dissapoint.

    I'm not sure I understand your question.

    The new 601 bands are great and I saw them in person. Now instead of all the confusion I know which 601 I have. The old bands had to much crap on them and were all really similar. Hard to tell the green from the black.

    I've never tried it, but I think the worst name for a cigar I've seen is the Gurkha Status...... just sounds way too pretentious. It actually looks like it might be a good cigar, though.......

    Great Wall. Apparently, it's the only handmade premium cigar from China. I'm strangely interested and want to try it out. Maybe it's just the Chinese blood in me screaming. But then again, I'm also the guy that decided to visit the Great Wall and scream about Mongorians breakin' down my sh1tty walr.

    I was just asking if you were serious about it being good.ButI see it is a pepin blend and someone else also said it was a good smoke. So I might give it a try someone has the boxs buy one get a box free and the boxs are like 115 dollars a pice.

    I think Ccom's sister mag usually does a write-up of the worst cigars with the worst names (pretty funny, actually, especially since they then offer to sell you said bad cigars at a discount). "Raji's Demise" was one of them

    I believe they call them "The Unsmokeables" and warn you not to buy anything on that page! LOL
