Here's a question - I've smoked about 6 of the robusto-sized Capoeiras I believe they are the "professor"?)

How does the toro compare? Will I get just about the same flavour profile?

I ask because I LOVED the robustos (obviously) but I am finding more and more that I prefer the smoking time of a toro. That extra inch rounds out the experience to about 80-90 minutes for me, which I find perfect.

Same blend, same ring gauge. Just an inch longer. I didn't find there to be too much of a difference.

Aluno, on the other hand... ROCKS!! A tad more intense without any flavor loss. But that's just personal preference as Cuban Coronas are my favorite size.

Thanks for the heads up guys. I will pick a few up to try out. I usually avoid stuff I have never heard of, but if you all like them this much I will give them a shot.

Been smoking the whole line of these cigars. I did some reviews on another board and this cigar is a diamond in the rough and I have bought about 5 boxes off the Auctioneer. It seems people are catching on to this brand because the pricing is going up. They are very consistant and burn excellent. They are at their best with about 6 months of rest and if you can wait for about 10 months you will really be rewarded.

I want a Capoeira Lancero. I think I may want this more than world peace.

Every box and/or bundle sold could theoretically bring this idea closer to reality. But ya'll gotta step it up a notch.
