BHK's

[TMS]

Last month 52's were going for $400+, today 56's can be had retail @ $415.

Ouch!

Are they any good? I know that is probably a dumb question but, it seems like a lot of money for a cigar I might not like...  I have almost no experience with Cohiba save for a couple of Siglo and a Maduro...

LOL someone got the same email this morning that I did..  Like all things, patience and research will do you well to get the best price..  Lesson learned for many of us.  It's also funny to see fivers being sold with a picture of the box which has the stickers used in that same country, indicating the original source is the same TMS is referring to. 

A lot of guys call these overpriced, etc..  Personally, I think it's one of the best ready to smoke Cohibas I've had.  Normally I don't like a Cohiba unless it has at least 2-3 years on it and that only makes it a good smoke.  These are pretty ready to smoke ROTT imo and there's multiple theories of whether or not that's good or bad for the future.  

Some more knowledgeable guys can probably chime in to correct me, but I don't think this blend and leaf type has been used to this extent, so the future potential of these could possibly go either way, but I'm leaning to fantastic.

I had a couple 52's and 6's when they first came out. They are a pretty gd good cigar. Are they worth 30 - 50 / each? Well that depends I guess on the individual. I smoked a 52 this winter in Aruba the same day as an 04 Esplendido and the espy beat it hands down. I gave away my last 52 and bought more Esplendidos.

i c $412  ;D  But they need to make it here.

I don't want to try them because, well, if I love it, then what?  And I am sure its an amazing cigar.

While I am not sure what the future will hold comparing a 6-7 year old esplendido and a 6 month old BHK hardly seams like a fair comparison.

Better hurry if you want some 56's only $650 for the box.  ???

If I had paid that much, I'd be trying to dump them as well. Can't blame a guy for trying  :-\

:rotf: $65 per 56.....some people have no shame. Weren't they like $40-$45 each MSRP?
