Don Pepin Garcia ‘Blue’ Generosos Cigar Review
This 6×50 milk chocolate stick offered a slightly toothy but satiny wrapper, with a firm and slightly bumpy construction. Burn was almost razor sharp and the draw was absolutely perfect. Total burn time to the nub was 1:15 where it got hot for me. The second half especially produced great amounts of thick rich smoke, giving flavors of coffee, leather, sweetness on the first half, and a bit of a pepper zing on the short clean finish. A touch of cocoa came through at the 1/2 way point, and the transitions were very nice throughout. Thank you to Shuckins for trading with me for this stick! Photography by BG Pictures.

Thats sounds like a stick I need to get! But afterall it is a Pepin! Great review!
It was delish! Thanks for watching!
Great review Bryan, I haven’t had one of these in a long time and don’t recall much about it – sounds like one that is worth a revisit.
It’s nice to know that they let you smoke cigars on survivor island
I have not ever had anything from DPG, so maybe this should be my first?
I have a few of the robustos of these in my humidor. I loved ‘em. They reminded me a lot of the RP Vintage 1990.
I had a DPG blue today, and I don’t know why I’m not smoking more of these. Just a solid cigar with a great taste.
I have these and the Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic 1979 Black Edition in my humidor and I must say that these are delicious smokes. Great burn and draw throughout, filled with flavors of cocoa and kind of a nutmeg spice in the middle and end. These are my favorites and great for the price. Like most Pepin Garcia’s, there is not a lot of sweetness that comes through, but what there is works very well.
Thanks for the review.
