    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....

    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    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....

    Yep, and being true to the cigar boom you then killed time browsing the reviews in CA or this...


    Believe it or not this is still online and doing reviews in all, thought it was long gone.

    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....
