These cigars don't get enough airplay. I've smoked four of their blends now and all have been stellar in taste, construction and combustion. The four I've tried have been the Ligero Maduro, DR4, Crillo Limitada and Corojo. Anyhow, if you haven't tried one before, giv'em a shot!....
Edit....and also the GC blend I'm smoking now...
The Maduro and Sumatra are two of my "top ten" rotation. The Maduro Ligero is also very good, IMO.
I've only tried the Ligero Maduro so far, but I love it. Wife likes the aroma too.
I smoked a GC the other day, and the first inch or so tasted very cuban, then switched to a more normal profile. I thought it was an interesting example of a 3-4 country blend, had good construction, and the flavor profile pretty good.
Kristoff Maduros are awesome!!
They have been in our humidors in Illinois for some time now. Glen Case lives a few towns over. Nicest guy. It's taken them a while though. The first of their stuff from Exclusive Cigars wasn't anything most wanted to put flame to. Ever since using the Kristoff name it has been smooth sailing for him and his company.
The GC is always in my rotation. Awesome cigars.
Well next time you run into him, tell him he has a new fan....Quote:

Kristoff maduro was "the cigar" that got me serious about cigars.
They are always in my rotation and I have a couple boxes on hand at all times.
Big fan of the Ligero Maduro. I recommend it every chance I get. Great example of rich full bodied creamy smoke without a lot of strength.
The kristania is the cigar that made me a cigar smoker, so I will always have a spot in my heart for Kristoffs. Smoking one of their blends right now, my first of a box I bought without having tried it, not disappointed.http://i1335.photobucket.com/albums/...psfccqacpt.jpg
Count me in I'm a fan, the De Palta is a must try as well
I'll have to check that one out. Thanks...Quote:

I think I need to find some of those. One of the few I havent tried yet.Quote:

Fire it up tell us what you think about it. I like the dirty barn yard smell it has, that's always a good sign that it's going to be a good cigar.
The ligero maduros are great smokes.
