Has anybody tried these? He's in Florida and rumor has it they're $5 a copy. Very interesting

I could be up for that. Would be a good way to try em without committing to an entire box.

Just placed an order with this guy. It was Jorge himself. The number on the web site is his personal cell phone, and the order has to be placed by text message. Not too worried, card is protected against fraud. Interesting guy to talk to, real friendly. Says he'll ship within the hour, and send me a picture of the tracking number. He has dropped the 20 cigar minimum order, but if you order less he charges $13 for shipping. 20 or more and he ships free. So we'll see how it goes. Did tell me he's looking for vendors.

Please keep us updated and let us know how they smoke.

Hmmmm...I'll have to check out his store. Its 20 mins from my office

Like I said, ordering was a little different. He doesn't have a checkout on the Web site, and when I called the number he simply answered "hello". To order you text your information and what you want to that same number. But he answered right away, called me back to confirm the order, sent me several thank you texts, and in under two hours sent me a photo of the shipping label with the tracking number. Should have an update on Tuesday.

Well his store is actually a booth at the local flea/farmers market. Not a place I frequent but what the hell...I'll check it out some weekend when I'm not working. Love to support the locals.

Looking forward to your take on them!
They look good and are reasonably priced.

There's a guy on FB who I talk with where he belongs on a Forum called Angels and Demons Cigar Club who raves about these cigars ALL THE TIME. May have to pick up a few when I head on down to the Keys in a few months.

Even better. I love a good flea market.
For the rest...I forgot to mention he does take PayPal too. I don't use the service, but it is an option.

They arrived this morning. Four five-packs smothered in bubble wrap. Jorge is not the most sophisticated vendor I've dealt with, but he packed them well, and shipped them fast. Included a nice little hand-written note, and like I said before, was pleasant to talk to and communicated well by text through the order process.
May have to try one later this evening.

Nice! I look forward to a first impression on these. I am off this weekend but Bike Week starts so I am definitely staying away from Daytona for the next 2 weeks

I was actually going to wait before I tried one of these, but after examining the cigar, decided I had to smoke one.
DISCLAIMER: This is more my impression of the cigar rather than an actual review. I'll leave that to someone with a more refined palette than mine.
On visual inspection I noted the cigar was firm, not hard, not soft. The wrapper was clear and free of defects, with the barber pole blending nicely with the other wrapper. I did note in the bundle that some of the cigars had a base wrapper leaf of (?) habano, and others had what appeared to a candela (greenish) wrapper. The unlit aroma of the cigar was a little sweet, aromatic.
The unlit draw was smooth and free. When lit, the draw was smooth and even. The cigar burned slow, it took me about two hours to smoke the toro size that I bought. The cigar burned evenly throughout the smoke, with no need to touch it up, and no need to relight it. I would describe this as a mild to medium smoke, but with plenty of flavor throughout.
I really enjoyed smoking this cigar. At this time, I have no regrets on buying these. Since he sells by the stick, I may mix the order up with some of his other blends. This was a great cigar ROTT. I would definitely order from Jorge again.

Yes I have smoked JNV cigars, my recommendation is to smokes as many as you can get. To tell you the truth in the past 40 years I have smoked all verities of cigars and JVN are some of the best. The price belittles the actual vibrancy of these cigars. I just think Jeorge is a master blender and roller who loves every aspect of the cigar. He's also a very remarkable and kind man. So, my recommendation smokes these cigars, you will not be disappointed.
