Hi Speedbump!

How are you? Please excuse my post, I'm just trying to state the facts.
I will be happy to send you a sampler pack to make my case. thanks

I was certainly not asking for a sample, as you said we can trade I have sent you a pm, I thank you for your response getting involved here would certainly help build your brand. Also contacting the admins for sponsorship may help as well

I appreciate your comments and I have to agree, but I also have to disagree with you.
Our cigars are made at "El Titan de Bronze" in Miami Fl, makers of the La Palina, Padilla 8-11 series among others.
I rest my case!

I recommend making a lancero. or petite lancero. Would love to try that.

What did I say that you disagree with ? El tiante is made at the my father factory, that does not make it similar to the dpg 10th aniv, does it ?

This has turned out to be an interesting thread. I don't think I have seen your brand in my area. I will keep my eye out though. Keep up the good debate. Always cool to see all view points.

We are made at EL "TITAN" de Bronze, big difference.

I seriously don't understand what the term boutique cigar means. A lot of smaller "boutique" cigar brands have their cigars made for them by a bigger company. If the tobacco comes from a large company, and is rolled in the factory of a large company than how is it boutique? Also, at some point smaller companies such as DE and Tatuaje become too big to be considered "boutique" IMO. The size of your company, or the production quantity doesn't always dictate quality. For the most part, I've noticed that most of the bad cigars I have smoked in the last five years are from "boutique" brands. There are many good boutique brands, but often I've noticed that often these smaller companies make inferior products as the people doing the blending don't have the experience or pallets that resonate with consumers. Often they're simply just cigar smokers who think because they like smoking cigars they can make a good cigar, which doesn't usually hold true. They come out with fancy labels, which are meant to catch your eye, but the quality of their leaf doesn't catch your pallet. There are plenty of good boutique brands, and often they offer creativity in their blending that didn't exist in the marketplace before. Unfortunately, they often are less reliable than the bigger brands.

Just a little info, some fact and some opinion. Fact Willy Herrera blended the Cremo Original. My opinion and experience is "boutique" cigars made in small shops such as El Titan ( where the La Palina Goldie was made as well as Cremo) produce much more consistent sticks than any of the huge manufacturers.

Please re-read what I wrote

Yes yours are made at el Titan de bronze, and el tiante is made at my father, that is my point of contention, I have not had your cigars, and they may be great, but stating that they come from a great factory is more about who you know that what is in the product

Thank you for your comments...

I can't wait to post my Thread about Cuban Cigars, again is just my opinion as a cigar enthusiast!

General Cigar has a bunch of lines they consider "boutique" this year because they are limiting production numbers.

I have a question based on the previous statement. Would you consider it to be truly "boutique" if one of the largest manufactures in the world makes it?

I am excited to see this. I love many non Cubans but the best for me have always been Cuban. Nothing else seem to be able to balance flavour and finesse while not destroying your taste buds

I second the comment regarding a smaller RG in the Cremo natural. Great flavor and balance in this blend with a clean finish. Seems perfect for a lance!

To your questions, I would consider it to be a "boutique brand" as long as cigars are made in small quantities to ensure perfection.
Also ensuring that the best premium tobacco is being used.
At the factory each roller is limited to 100-125 cigars per day to maintain quality. Each days work is inspected by a Master Roller. After that cigars aged then boxed and dated to ensure the highest standard.

Cremo natural is available in a Corona size (5.75 x 46)... is this small enough?

Then wouldn't the price of this cigar be more expensive and not cost effective, thus making it a limited edition cigar? Thus charging a premium price for the cigar? Not my idea of a boutique cigar, but everyone has their opinion on this topic.
