You get a bug ring but a nice chisel tip or belicoso tip and it can be very enjoyable similar to smoking a toro.
Yeah - I've smoked a few 60s - just don't like the esthetics, even if the cigars smoke and taste OK. Especially unpleasant if you use a V-cut, if you know what I mean ...
Not as bad with a bit of a chisel tip, but still just an ugly cigar in my eyes.
Insert witty comment here ...

I feel you. While talking oddities, what about culebra cigars? how do we feel about those? If I had two other friends I would smoke them but sadly I dont.

It took me forever to try a Culebra. Hell, sometimes a well-known maker's straight cigar has draw issues, how are three tied in a knot going to smoke?
I've been shocked at how well they smoke and burn and wouldn't hesitate to split one up with

I've never tried them, but I'd like to. There's a cigar shop that opened recently a couple of miles from my house, called Culebra Cigars. I checked them out for the first time yesterday. Will definitely return, BTW. I teased the owner about not having any culebras in the humidor. He said he's working on a house blend culebra, so I'm looking forward to that. Sounds like he plans on three different wrappers.
Also, there is a culebra not mentionable in this forum that is surprisingly less outrageously priced than other offerings from the same party gas company. I have seriously thought about giving it a try.
And of course I'm with SoCalGunner - I'd share a culebra with Tombstone (and TJ) any time
