Carlos Torano - Virtuoso Baton A Review

By
Real Estate Agent 0488515

Last weekend we made a road trip to the Houston area, which gave me the opportunity to visit one of my favorite cigars shops, Elite Cigars located at 24627 I 45 in The Woodlands.  What is so unique about Elite Cigars is that they are located in large gas stations.  You have access to some of the best cigars 24x7, with great prices.  

I happened upon a new Carlos Torano Virtuoso Baton.  It looked like a finely made cigar so I thought I would buy a box of them.  

Here are the particulars.  

Color: Natural Size: 7 ½ x 38  

This cigar is made with a sun grown wrapper which is grown by the Torano Family.  It is a full bodied cigar with Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama filler tobacco.  Turned out to be a smooth well balanced smoke.  Great flavors.    

I recommend you give it a shot.

No offense Rich but YECH!  These are the types of posts I hide from my hubby.  He has recently developed an interest in cigars.  I can't stand the smell myself.  I run from him whenever he even picks one up.  LOL

Hi Richard... that's an interesting conept, a cigar shop in a large gas station.  I might be concerned about someone lighting up too close to the pumps!

Debra,

Thanks for the comments.  If the cigars he is smoking smell bad, then he is smoking cheap cigars.  I promise you a good cigar does not stink.

Steve,

It is a great concept.  The stations are large truck stop facilities.  He currently has 9 locations in TX and 1 in AZ.

I will have to tell him that.  Maybe I will buy the next batch!

Richard... sounds interesting <cough, cough> ...  I like the smell, but not the smoke.
