This brand might have reached a new bottom....
Ron Mexico! Where to begin with this goodie-laden offering....where to begin. Well, you've got a band with a dude dressed incognito, cigar in mouth, striking a Heisman pose. WTF. Who's the genius that thought that was a good idea - can't you just picture the group of Einsteins in a boardroom somewhere dreaming up this brand and actually believing they were on to something. But I gotta tell you, if you set aside the hopelessly goofy art you've got yourself a Dominican cigar here that's all long-filler. A serviceable if unremarkable mellow, knock-around handmade. It's not going to win any awards - ever - but dadgummit it's cheap enough to burn on a regular basis and barely make a dent in your wallet.
These are a great, economically priced everyday smoke. Much better than I anticipated. The ole humidor will have space reserved for these babies. As usual, CI just keeps pumping out bargains that keep the local cigar shops shaking their heads!
Great cigar. Smokes and burns perfectly. Enjoyed them.
While the Ron Mexico might not be on par with the $10 cigars, it's certainly better than some of the $3 and $4 stogies I've bought in the past. I'm setting a few aside in the humidor to see if it will really change their flavor over time.
Michael Vick's nickname is Ron Mexico!
As comfortable as a well worn pair of Khakis. One of my "standby's." Highly recommended
Allow me to add my (limited) kudos for this el cheap-o. The ones I've had from the Po' Boy are actually not unpleasant and significantly better made than most of the others on offer in that bountiful blend of smoking weirdness. As an everyday cigar it's not bad at all.
I have bought the 40 cigar sampler which included these several times, and always thought that they were a far better cigar than their brothers which were included in the sampler. Mild and smooth, with a nice burn. This time, I decided to order a bundle of just these instead of fishing through samplers trying to find something worthwhile.
I had this cigar first as part of the "Po Boy Sampler#2" and thought that it was pretty good. I then found that I could order them in a 20 pack for $19.99. Always a consistent smoke. I am 1/4 of the way through my third 20 pack and finally had a few that were very peppery and one that fell apart. Still I will buy them again. For $1 they are still a bargain. I just figure I got a bad 20 pack.
