I was near McLean Va a few weeks ago. I have always wanted to stop by and see the store. Nice place and his son was very nice. I was hoping to like there cigars.
I purchased two sample Pks to try there full rang in the Robusto and figurado sizes. I tried the first last weekend. It was a Robusto in the Gourmet series. It was rolled top notch, felt good and smelled good. The draw and burn were perfect, lots of smoke. Too bad it tasted like crap. I have never had a taste sit in the back of my tongue like this. Only smoked half the cigar. It was a total tease..
Last night, I figured to try another. This was a 15 Anniversary robusto. Same as the first in quality and construction. This was spicy and rich. Better than the Gourment. I could still taste the flavor that i did not like in the first cigar. It was not as bad, but could only finish half the cigar.
Now I am stuck with 12 more stick. I am not looking forward to smoking. Anyone smoke these?? Very nice people and the stick looked great, but flavor was not for me.

Re: PG Cigars
I actually like PGs, with the caveat that I have only smoked a few of the 15th Anniversary and Gourmet series -- oh and the Symphony, which is excellent. Probably overpriced as a marca but well blended and made IMO.
