Any Oldtimers Remember "Casa de Nicaragua"...

I remember buying this box back in the 1990's and they were a very good smoke. Anybody else remember ever purchasing these? I guess these went by the wayside like a hundred other brands did. I did see some listed from Villager, but they don't have the same logo and I don't think they're the same brand....

Yeah I think I remember a friend buying a box of these possibly from JR.s. Don't remember the actual cigars though.

Reminds me of the Maria Mancini's. We used to herf through boxes of those. I still remember the cedar smell from the freshly opened boxes. It was incredible.

I think I got them from JR as I purchased all my mail order stuff from them back in the day. If not, it was from Ted's Pipe Shoppe locally....

Yeah JR's was popular with us too. We used to "call" and order them on the phone. A house phone. Lol

Same here! You received their catalog every month and jump on the phone....

Didn't know it was still puffing along. I seen Smoke rated the John Starks #3 Maduro at 93. I have one and guess I need to try it out. I smoked the CT version a few weeks ago and it was good....
