    Sons of Anarchy cigars

    I was flipping through the CI catalog the other day and saw a page dedicated to these cigars. Just curious if any one has tried and if they are worth it or just a gimmick. There are some decent reviews out for them, but I trust you guys over someone that may have got them free to review. Thanks in advance.

    If I have the chance I will let you know tonight. I have one kicking around from a few months ago. Should be about ready to be sacrificed.

    I've always been skeered (afraid) of the gimmick TV Show cigars although I heard good things about the "Soprano" cigar. I still have one "Leave it to Beaver"" cigar that's around fifty years years old....
    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    I've had the robusto before. They are pretty good once rested. The first few relatively ROTT were just OK.
    But the last one had 6 - 1 year months rest and was nice. I would buy them again for a good price, but would NOT search for them.

    CI has 5'ers of the robustos for 24.50 which seems ok. Being a fan of the show I've thought about getting the tin of coronas as well just to have the tin.

    I try to stay away from the gimmicks but I have had quite a few of them and they are actually pretty good for the money. The clubhouse edition was the better of the lot, I thought. and yes they definitely require some rest

    I bought a box of the original on a whim. I'm not disappointed. I expected it to be more of a gimmick like everyone eluded to already, but was pleasantly surprised. I also expected some BIG BOLD flavors, but got more of a medium, almost pepper less stick.

    The chapel edition is also good. Blended by AJF (I think), more ligero, more spice. More "nicaragua."
    @TreySC I sent you a pm. I can help a brother out.

    Check the devil site.
    $24.50 is not bad though! But like most, I say "cheaper is better"! Besides, they are sister sites.

    Club house kg9 is th best. Regular is decent. Heard they get real good with a year rest. The chapel edifion left a lot to be desired.

    Had a regular SOA robusto a while back. I'd recommend a 5er, dunno about boxworthy. My formula is almost always: Single > 5er > box
