Has anyone tried one of these? I had meant to buy a box of Ruinations from CI when they were including 5 free Armadas but time slipped away. I see that they now have a tin of box pressed MoWs that has 1 Armada in it and am thinking of picking it up. I'm a big fan of the Ruination and have really enjoyed the Virtue as of late. Those Virtues are super smoky!
So what's the verdict on the Armada? Worth the hype/price? (probably not worth the price...) EDIT* And I just became a member for the first time! Now to find an avatar... |

I have and have one left....
All I can say is OOOOHHHHHMMMMYYYYY......What a stick....A true KICK IN YOUR TEETH MOW!!! A full stomach and ice water galore will be required....OK....so I also had a wee dram of scotch as well but I AM old enough! Very expensive smoke and I had two given to me....you guys know who you are!!! We may need to do a group buy for a box. 
I may know someone that would be willing to start that......

Quoted: And where can I find that? CI? That looks awesome. I bought a 5 pack of the Puro Authentico ligeros and thought they were pretty good. It is listed in Cigar.com's forum area under upcoming new releases http://www.cigar.com/cs/forums/thread/272298.aspx They haven't been listed anywhere yet. Is a limited run of 500 boxes and are estimated to be about $60 each. |

I got a 5 pack from CI as a freebie. Got two left. I think they are one of the more complex cigars I have ever smoked. To echo what Echo said, it will kick you in the teeth. I smoke cigs, chew snuff on occasion, and it still gave me a nicotine buzz like I was 15 again. Well worth it if you can get them in a freebie, but to quote a wise old man "i loved it but at 20.00 a stick it needs to have tits!" |

I swear just thinking about smoking it gives a buzz...I will happily do it again after I eat a meal like no other and I have time to do so lazily!!! I cam sooooo close to dropping the trigger on the 10 pack of the newer Puros on feefall yesterday...but I was able to resist and my credit card was VERY thankful. |
