Nica Libre 1990

SMoking one right now. I havent liked these in the past, but I had a few in the humi, so I lit up the little one (Compliments of Joeyjoe's fantastic bomb--you rock, man!) and Im enjoying the crap out of it!

    Okay, overall it was not a bad smoke. A lot of pepper, a little cocoa and cedar, and a little maduro-ey sweetness. However, it wasnt very smooth and definitely doesnt match up to Padrons.

    A Padron they are not, but with some rest and the right rum, I really like them.

    Haha with the right rum, black and milds would be fantastic!

    I've noticed with a little time on them, the Nica Libre turns into a nice little smoke too. When I first tried them, I was really hoping for more since they were compared to Padron so much, but like someone else already said, Padrons they are not, but I still enjoy them.

    Yea, the comparison to Padron is hype. However, it's a great smoke at that price point.

    I love these, one of my favorite smokes.  If you guys dislike them that much I would be happy to smoke them for you.

    I like the Nica Libre. Not a Padron but I just got a box and thanks to Kelly's deal last weekend they were only 2.50 a stick. QUESTION? Anyone know what the 1990 refers to?
