That's the only SC that I haven't had. Love the Elegancia & Classic lines, haven't had the Revelation in a while but remember enjoying it despite its size. The Ovation is the only one I've had that I didn't really care for, but it was at a lounge and probably too wet for comfort. I may buy one or two & let them get to 65% & try it again.

Hi Brian, Like you I've smoked and liked most of the San Cristobals. Just read the review you mentioned. Noticed Katman didn't like the Del Sol. The Del Sol Fireplug was one that I really did like, wish it was still made.
Top of the regular S.C.'s *for me* are the Guajiro. That Del Sol fireplug next. The Revelation Mystic. Then the Elegancia Corona. With the Quintessence in the next spot. Katman said in that review that flavours are hard to detect/isolate. Tho I may be aware of changes,can't put a name to them. If it's a good cigar,one I enjoy smoking...good nuff for me. Have only had one Don Pepin Garcia that I hated. It's a line that many like,and like a lot.However the one I tried to smoke was so bloody bad I'll never light up another of that Brand. Haven't had the Ovation.
No "this is the best..." from me,just a bit on the ones mentioned.
Pepin makes Cigars that I do like to smoke. Or,maybe I just like pepper.
Cheers,
Bob.
[QUOTE=allusred;153440] I agree about DPG!
I can't think of one that I do not like! Like I said about the Ovation, it may just have been due to it being from the lounge vs me keeping my stock at 65% - 67%.
I too notice the change in flavors, but don't ask me to name them either!
Pepper is good! But they do have lots of flavor as well. Their entire My Father line, the Jamie Garcia line. The Blue Label & Cuban Classic!!! Do I need to go on?!?!?!
Sure wish I hadn't been so foolish to think it was cool for whatever reason. Hated seeing my dad smoke as a kid knowing it was bad for you. And most certainly glad my daughter doesn't see it from me. Still couldn't tell you why ashtray didn't seem to taste so bad...
[QUOTE=Brimy;153442] With you 100 percent. Those you mention are outstanding. One of his first brands, a milder one, I would put as my #1 D.P.G. smoke, natch can't recall the name right now. Kinda funny how some who don't like the pepper swear that its all there is to Garcia's cigars.
Had this RyJ earlier today. The flavor was nice, but the construction was a little wonky
