Thompsons Cigars:
St. George, with its all-Dominican long filler
tobaccos, is ready to compete with flavor with
any full-bodied smoke out there including the
Cubans. This is indeed a man's cigar

Notes:
To be perfectly honest for the most part Thompson's
is over priced and full of shit. Every once
in a while however, they offer a good deal.
You just have to be really careful, and know
what you're doing, or else be willing to gamble.
This cigar was a gamble that paid off. It
was part of a four box special that came with
a ton of accessories for only $100.00. All
the smokes in the assortment were good but
this one was the best. It really was a full
flavored cigar. It burned really well and finished
in about an hour and a half. The ash was solid
and white. By the time I was finished I was
satisfied that I had just smoked a good cigar.
Now how much they try and sell them for in
the future will determine if the St. George
is worth buying again, but at less than a buck
a piece when you consider all the other stuff
that came with the deal, it's a really good
smoke. Bottom line, if priced right I'd buy
'em.
