The New Viaje Exclusivo Robusto...

[whodeeni]

A couple of brothers have chimed in about the DES....

What about this one?

 

[benday]

you haven't bought a box yet?

just kidding...

 

[Slow Burn]

i'll find out sat.

it's the same blend, different vitola, i'm sure it'll be just fine...

No box, just bundles

No pig tail, in bundles and looks to be made with the same love as the original jars:drool::wink:

 

[Reeve11]

I saw the original jar and the new one next to each other last night. There is a pretty noticeable size difference.

 

[whodeeni]

I'd Imagine Dan with 54 vs 50 rg.... I'm just wondering if the flavors are
stronger because there's less filler.....

You know the old adage Miller vs. Miller light... ."Less Filling"/ "Tastes Great"! *Lol*:headroll:

not so much the RG, one is noticeably longer than the other. I forget which way around. (talking about the new robo vs. the jar robo right?)

The new bundles exclusivos are 5 x 50. The only difference between these and the jar release are the pigtail and a very small length difference.

New one is longer.... i think the other was 4 3/4...

and initially i thought you were comparing the DES to the new robusto!:hysterica

 

[LiLo]

The jar exclusivo is very close to 5 inches. I think it might be like 4 7/8.

 

[whodeeni]

What i'm really getting at is the difference between the DES and the new robusto from the bundle.. Not the new robusto vs. the old....

 

[Goalee1]

From my understanding, the original jar was the exclusivo blend as is the DES. The new robusto is the same blend rolled differently to differentiate it from the jar. I haven't seen or tried the new robusto yet so can't be sure but I think I heard this somewhere. G1

Any review of this yet?

Rolled differently equates to 5 x 50 with no pigtail. What I heard today in a side by side comparison was "the jars are a little shorter"...but that was all. I was actually more interested in my couple getting out the door...

You can let us all know what you think of the jar robusto on Thurs, Tak!:grin:

Yeah well I hate seeing these posts now... my ordered box of DES was shipped out last Thursday with Priority, landed at my local postal processing facility on Friday which is 25 minutes away from me, and I still haven't received it!?!

 

[klipsch]

I got my DC tonight... :smile:

I feel your pain man! That same thing happened to me with the summerfest robustos! They shipped out from NC and got to a sort facility 2 hours away from me 2 days later. they stayed at that sort facility for 3 days!!! And it wasn't even a weekend! I was so pissed!

Go down there and pick them up. :grin:

They're worth the trip.
