Succulent Nicaraguan long-filler premiums from a highly-rated, newly reinvigorated boutique brand. Sampler includes 3 x Cupido Robusto 5x50, Cupido Toro 6x52, Cupido Churchill 7x50, and Cupido Gordo 6x60.
From the way back…. here comes Cupido. 'Member berry these? Originally made in Nicaragua by late/great master maker Kiki Berger, these were a cigar shop standard. Nicaraguan niche-ness before Nica was nouveau, solid steady eddies that didn’t cost a lot and always tasted tasty. 90+ rated by someone somewhere I'm certain, they had the chubby cherub fella on the band that somehow didn't look as weird it sounds. Well the winged baby's back, and the blend's better than ever. Still rolled in Nicaragua, this time around by Carlos Sanchez at his TACASA factory (makers of Don't Tread On Me, Cult, Ortega + others), Cupido v2.0 captures everything that made the OG release so special. Captivating Criollo wrappers, nuanced Nicaraguan long-leaf, rich flavor profiles, rewarding aromas, all at a reasonable price point.

Cupido toro
Got this in a Tacasa sampler and tried it ROTT. Nice stick! Rolled well with no burn issues and a nice draw. Criollo wrapped cigars have never been high on my list. I always felt they had a little bit of a citrus or lemon like taste in there somewhere. Maybe just me. The Cupido I smoked however was smooth and well balanced. A nice med-full Nicaraguan. I'd say it's in the upper end of the offerings from Tacasa. If you like the cult cigars, (I do) Your gonna enjoy these. Keep in mind this is just a one time, one cigar review.
Review by M. on 11/7/2022Cupido robusto
With excellent construction, smoke output, and taste, there is nothing not to like about these sticks. Perfect with a cup of coffee in the morning, a bottle of flavored water in the afternoon, or a little whiskey in the evening, these have become my every day smokes. My recomendation? Try 'em, I think you'll like 'em!

Great flavor, good construction, burned evenly, no issues with the draw. All around a heck of a deal for good cigars. Review by Mark on 11/3/2022Mr.
I ordered two of the 12's samplers, and I have to say that in the four sizes which came, each is a great smoke - very flavorful, beautiful burn, and high-quality construction. I plan to order more of these beauties!!! Review by Joseph on 10/29/2022This could be good. Very good.
The Don Kiki cigars with the fat dude on the box, were very good cigars, especially the Red, which the label suggests they are. They cost more than two bucks per cigar, and that was a long time ago. Review by Burt on 8/26/2022Welcome back, old friend.
From the early 90s, this cigar was sorely missed. While this version has a different wrapper, it will probably
benefit by having better "legs". Originally in the churchill format only, it easily justified it's $10-12 retail price. This may be the biggest steal on the site
