These have been some of my favorite NCs and really get better with time.

What kind of flavors do you get from these? How strong are they?

I just had my first daughters of the wind and in my estimate they are not strong at all.  I actually wish the flavors were more pronounced but they are incredibly complex and I am likely just not that sophisticated.  Very warm flavors, toasty, malt, graham and kind of felt like I was eating a warm brownie.  Very good cigar, but for my money I would trend toward a sin compromiso.  The flavors seemed more pronounced with a very similar nicotine load. 

The Bespoke was my third cigar of the day so it was likely muted because of that.  It's a wonderful cigar, just wanted more of a flavor hit and so I will try it again.  Both are amazing and I would smoke them any day.

Couple things came in while I was camping.  Fat bottom Betty toro box of 10 and a 10 pack of 601 blues, really loved the blues when I was smoking years ago will be interested to see how they are now.

Picked up a few yesterday. Capas from 2015 and Black labels from 2016. Love them both and with a few years on each, I couldn’t pass up grabbing some. 


Aged capa are money!

NO DOUBT!! There was about a half box left of them... I might need to go back and snag the rest.  So smooth and delicious. Minimal pepper. Baking spices, some molasses, florals. Pure deliciousness.

I really enjoyed the single I had of these from a local B&M, so I decided to grab a box.

In case the two bands and the ribbon wasn't enough they added a sticker outside the cellophane as well!IMG_7553.JPG.48a590270274701df260b14b74261151.JPG 

 

Those are very tasty. I’ve tried both the robusto and toro sizes, and for some reason the robusto is better. Richer. Enjoy!

These are my favorite NC’s. Hope the new batches live up to the hype.

EP Carillos age as well as any CC.   As they are priced like PDS4, nothing wrong with stashing away some boxes.

the corona is very good, i get a banana aroma/flavor that i've never experienced in any cigar. i also bought a box of the lonsdales:

not really a fan of the box lid/hinge, but whatever. i hope these are as good as the coronas, but i'm sure they will be.

ima fan of the dougle ligero lfds ........i think they will be phenomenal aged...i have a few stashed away that i plan to revisit  in about 10 yrs lol 

The pick of the litter is the chisels--more concentrated and benefits the most from aging imho.
