Siglos

[USCftbl67]

Whats the deal with the Siglos cigars by altadis. Is it worth the prce? I wanted to try one but can only find them by the box and I would hate to buy a box of smokes i dont like. Any input would be great

 

[Soundwave13]

I had one given to me & did not like it. Even for free. YMMV.

The obvious attempt to rip-off Cohiba already has left a bad taste in my mouth. If you aren't good enough to sell your stuff without trying to fool people into thinking you're a different company, how good can you be? They also have a rip-off of the RP Edge going as well.

I agree and understand it's a cheap ploy to get sales. But I don't agree it's a rip-off or misrepresentation. Altadis has a controlling interest in Habanos, SA and would likely be the sole distributor of CCs in the US if the embargo was lifted. Plus this may have something to do with the recent General Cigar/Habanos Cohiba litigation.

Zen is correct

 

[goin' fer smoke]

Well, I went and picked one up yesterday, not seeing this post beforehand, so I will try it out. My b&m has them individually, I [icked up the corona for $6.30. Not sure if that is in line with other stores but I felt obligated to make a purchase since I went there originally to use my free coupon for the El Baton. So I have one good smoke to look forward too. El baton cigars seem to have a good name to them here.

the guy at my b&m suggested these, but i just can't bite. plenty of sticks out there i know i like. not interested in helping altasis anyway.

I'm not normally picky, but I even think this stick tasted like @$$. Difficult draw, went out every other puff, no flavor, very little smoke, all around a poor experience. I chucked mine in the woods halfway through. Maybe I got a bad one, but I wouldn't recommend it to anybody.

i do my very best not to smoke wannabee cigars. i've tried way too many, they never hold a shadow to the island stuff, and aren't even good cigars in their own right. i've been thinking really hard since all this altadis stuff came out, and i still can't think of one good experience. even one that is on par with a 4 dollar cigar. always a disappointment. especially for what they want you to pay for the right....

 

[VirginIslander]

Definitely better smokes out there for the $$$

 

[Volusianator]

I didn't think it was terrible, didn't think it was great. We sell a freakin' boat load of them at the lounge, I mean a LOT. It's a decent golf course/lawn mowing cigar for those who downgrade for those events.

Love it ! Now only if we can have better looking chicks (left and middle are out) :chat:

 

[TexaSmoke]

To my understanding this cigar isn't really meant to be around (with the current blend) for very long.

 

[derek]

Around here they sell them in gas stations next to the blunts....... That right there told me a lot.

 

[PLUSH]

Yeah, weren't we boycotting Altadis? :angeryell :devil:
