JohnS Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 These Monte carlo's arrived last week from our host. smell great ! Was debating having one ROTT but will lay them down for a bit, at least until the snow is gone If you enjoy the caramel profile of Por Larranaga cigars, you may want to age them , as you would no doubt know. Still, I sympathise as I can imagine how nice that aroma is and I would be similarly tempted to sample ROTT. 2
luv2fly Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Ah, no worries! I always appreciate a heads up (or attempted heads up) so I calibrate my expectations accordingly. Senior moment! I have many each day...
Popular Post Akela3rd Posted March 2, 2016 Popular Post Posted March 2, 2016 Partagas Mille Fleurs - GEO ABR14. Not my latest purchase actually as they took 6 weeks to arrive. I could have realistically walked to Lisbon (from London), picked them up myself and walked home in that time. Wanted to compare them to my RyJ MFs (there's a thread on this comparison). 5
mcease022 Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Subjectively, in person, the PSP are wrappers just a bit fuller in color. Oil and sheen on both is very good, with an edge to the PSP. The aroma of the PSP box might be a bit more intense, but it's hard to verify that it's not placebo. Both are in the ballpark. IMO the HQ actually look better, but it is hard to say looking at pictures when sight is the only sense being used... 1

Popular Post CigarSeeker Posted March 3, 2016 Popular Post Posted March 3, 2016 My 1st 24:24 purchase arrived today! Small box but very impressive! 5 boxes pending lol 5
luv2fly Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Very nice. 2 boxes in my humi and the few I have had are great.
DBeets77 Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Finally got a chance to buy a couple from the famous Frank Correnti shop on King West in Toronto. This hidden gem imports pure Cuban tobacco and has about 3 rollers on site cranking out all sorts of sizes for your liking. I opted for their "Mild Robusto" which is about a 50 rg. The beauty of this shop is that these were just rolled today, smell/feel incredible, and apparently taste just as good. I can't wait to take them out in the coming weeks & will be sure to follow up and let you know how they burn. Anyone else from Toronto that's tried these before? Cheers! 2

WhiteMamba Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 After much anticipation I received my first box of Mag 46's from 24:24. They're GEO Jul 14 and they smell beautiful! Also threw in these to sample. Probably a box purchase in the future if the price is right on 24:24. 2

Popular Post skalls Posted March 5, 2016 Popular Post Posted March 5, 2016 Here's a few pictures of some shipments I've taken in the last couple weeks. Moved all but a couple 2014 boxes from my OHS and a couple 24:24 sales. The highlight of the shipment was the Upmann #2. The wrappers are just so dark and oily, and were a handpick clearance sale. Grand slam there. 9
