Havn't tried the Cielo. How do they compare to the Pre-Embargo Counterfeit Cubans (have had these). What difference is there between the two? Should I get the Cielo's?
THANKS!

I think you should buy both, and in very large quantities!

I have one that's been hiding in humi for several months, maybe I'll get it out and try it this week.

I smoked a couple of them and liked them. The figurado shaped one was very tasty. Medium strength. The Cielo Moctezuma is totally different. Very mild and smooth!

Ramon Allones is better For ME than either one. I do not like the CPECC so between the two I would be more apt to actually smoke another Cielo.

The PEGGLCOCLECC never did anything for me. I have only had one Cielo but I did really like it, so I would go with that one. The GCPECGCECs are cheaper than Cielo. If you are unsure, why not trade for a sampler of both and make a more informed decision?

The Cielo's are a bit more rare so if you are not worried about not really liking them, then they would be better for trading or gifting.

The Cielo's have a much nicer band. And the packaging has to be nicer than the CPECGEMCCCPs.
