Quesada has been marketing the hell out of these on social media. Has anyone tried these yet? I haven't been able to find any at my local B&Ms.

I can't remember who it was, but somebody recently bought 12 boxes of them in the "what did you buy" thread...

I haven't seen any local either. I'm gonna pick up a couple when I do see them though.

They are surprisingly good! by far the best Quesada blend and the only one I like. I have been so hooked on these that I have bough every one that the B&M can get their hands on. They are very complex and medium-low strength IMO. I would buy boxes but I think Habano has bought them all...

Have you tried the 40th Anny Corona Clasico?

I just picked up a few 40th and 35th. Haven't gotten around to smoking them yet though

Which blends did you not like? There are some that I also don't care for but, in my opinion, when they get it right they knock it out of the park. I've tried a lot Quesadas so maybe I can point you in the right direction.

I'd be interested in how they compare to the Reserva Privada. The Corona Clasico is probably the best Quesada I've ever smoked. I haven't tried any of the other 40th Anny blends because they're not the same.

The only one I could tell you off hand would be the Oktoberfest... Just wasn't my cup of tea. However these damn reserva privada are like crack! I want to pick up a couple boxes but they will be gone by the time I get authorization from swmbo

100% the same feeling on the Oktoberfest.

I like the Tributos but the last dozen I bought had major burn issues. Not a fan of Oktoberfest either.

The Oktoberfest is kind of a stand alone in their lineup. I actually love that cigar but have had duds when I've smoked them young. It really does taste like a dry beer so if you don't like german beers you probably won't like the Oktoberfest...if you do like German beers, try lowering the RH of the cigar before smoking.
I don't think you'd like the Heisenburg but the Tributo, Espana and 40th might be right up your alley.
