Dona Ines Torpedo #2 Sum, Box Of 25, (Avail 08/02)

Like Romeo y Julieta ??? Onyx ??? Punch? We do too! You have to respect cigars that earn Cigar Insider 90 ratings, cigars that are universally admired. And these respected brands have earned their accolades. However, we suggest that those brands move over a bit to make room for Do??a Inez ??? our nominee for a 90-plus rating. Ratings ??? real ratings, that is, are not easily gained, and never by accident or mistake. We know because we???re probably tougher on rating a cigar than the magazines. So when we say that you???ll agree with us that Do??a Inez rates right up there with the most respected brands, we know whereof we speak. It???s no accident and certainly no mistake that it belongs in the same class with these other cigars. That???s because Do??a Inez???s filler tobaccos are a blend of Nicaraguan Cuban-seed Ligero, Dominican San Vicente Olor, and Nicaraguan Piloto Cubano. All are carefully aged for five years and triple fermented to remove any trace of harshness. This remarkable blend is capped off with a smooth-as-silk Indonesian-Sumatra wrapper that adds a delightful nuance to the cigar???s mellow but authoritative full-bodied taste. With such care given to the curing and aging of the tobaccos, you can be assured that the cigar???s manufacture is held to the highest standards. Indeed, this is one well-made cigar. Such is Do??a Inez???s rich, flavorful taste that perhaps its nearest rival is Romeo y Julieta. That???s a pretty nice neighborhood to be in! So forget about the $6 and $7 prices you pay for Romeo y Julieta, Onyx, and Punch.
