ELO 1s/3s

[Clint]

I was wondering how long it would take for this thread to show up after I got the email :rofl:

Surprised it took this long, actually!

IIRC these are West and East coast verocu blends

oh boy, the cat's out of the bag, open up the flood gates :devil:

 

[GUSTO]

Just lit up an OR ELO3 and it is smoking MyTFine right now - much smoother than what I remember when I first got them a few years ago, but still full bodied, very tasty, & complex...glad I still have a few singles buried somewhere.
I look forward to trying the freshies soon and doing a 'lil side by side.:cbig:

 

[earful]

The cigar gods do listen!!! :tiphat:

 

[Cigar Cowboy]

OK, sorry about this, but what are these sticks?

Some damn fine smokes :grin:

 

[OB-Left]

I've got a bundle on the way also. Thanks.

Awesome couple weeks for NHC. Thanks Dan and Pete.

Oh good, I am nearly out of the OR ELOs and IMO the OR ELOs are better than the original banded versions, or maybe I just like these better fresh. It would be interesting to fire up all 3 (6!) at once to compare.

Let's get all 3 going at the Socal Herf

I know that I am very late to this but...what gives with these sticks? I know they are from Pete and all however, what am I missing.

Perhaps a 5er when Dan posts them.

In the mean time. Can someone, please fill me in.

I feel like an idiot. I just passed on these in a split and didnt even know the blend. I saw that the sizes were off for petes regular production so I passed. Fail.

 

[sonarman]

singles and fivers will be out there on Tues guys...

 

[astripp]

Ordered a bundle of each. A steal!

Serious? :scratchhe

Just got a bundle of 1s...

Yes....he's serious.

Check out the vitolas......and go compare em' to the ORs.

Still haven't seen anything on inventory on these, unless I missed it somewhere??

But the bigger question. Did you order some?

Same here, that may be the point, BUY NOW!. I'm waiting, if they are out they are out.

I have yet to pull the trigger on these myself Roberto.....but am entertaining a split offer currently for both. I'm sure I'll bite....these are a couple of my all time favorite smokes, so hopefully they're just SOMEWHERE in the same flavor/profile ballpark to those. If so, a better deal may not be had the remainder of this year.

Bought a fiver of these cigars and lit one up tonight. What a beautiful cigar. Dark and oily and vaguely familiar. Cut the tip and toasted. First puff. Ahhhh, Lots of chewy smoke. The burn if laser perfect with a salt & pepper ash. Oh my. I know this cigar. I have smoked this one before. Do not miss this one. Wow. Thanks Dan.

The above post by CWS back on 9-17-2008 was what enticed my to buy a bundle of the OR ELO3. They were and still are fantastic cigars, and an incredible value when price if factored in.
