Popular Post Dmpotocek Posted February 17, 2018 Popular Post Posted February 17, 2018 Came home after 2 weeks of work travel to these. Wife was a good sport and put them in the humidor for me (and only gave me minimal grief). I really wish HSA would offer more options in 50 cab packaging. The aroma is intoxicating. An absolutely fantastic cab of Epi 2. Picked them up with the intention of smoking in the near term, but based on the quality I think I might have to put these down for a while. My first box of Lusi. Pres had these up a few weeks back and I’m glad I pulled the trigger. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 23

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk As El Pres always says, they're just cigars. Don't light those up. They'll most likely taste like dog shit AND they could literally have shit in them. 1

I got a box of 25 on coupon day that are beautiful. ROE Feb 17 Gonna smoke one this weekend. It’s been just over 2 weeks and I can’t wait no longer.

cfc1016 Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Oof. Tax return came and i went silly. I’ve got 4 packages (i think?) on the way, cumulatively comprised of: 25 BLP OCT 08 Partagas 898 7x(5x5) Partagas Chicos 25 Por Larrañaga Montecarlos 2x25 XXX 10 Montecristo #4 25 La Gloria MDO4 I’m gonna have some humidor tetris to do soon. Better dump a bunch of those ‘10 monte 4s into the box pass to make room ?? 1

Monterey Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 The worst was N E T A G I D O C U. Represented boxes sold in 1999 (thru 2001 I believe). So much garbage!
Popular Post encephalization Posted February 18, 2018 Popular Post Posted February 18, 2018 Not sure if its worth posting here, only two sticks (could not get myself to buy a box). Never had a GR and I'm sure nothing justifies the price but what the hell?Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk 14

Popular Post JohnS Posted February 18, 2018 Popular Post Posted February 18, 2018 Some 3 packs of MOL Jun 17 Cohiba Esplendidos. I'm hoping to rest these for some time (let's see how I go with that!). The cigar wrappers are a typically light colorado-shaded colour and are not that dark. I had to adjust the contrast in the image as the camera flash over-exposed the gold tint on the Cohiba logo in the picture! 18

Hey John, will you take those out of the cardboard sleeves and boxes and toss them to age? Or age in the boxes? Always interested in hearing what people do to age cubans in those packs.

If you know the source, by all means, go for it. I know we'll agree to disagree but really, it's like saying "I've played Russian roulette and look at me, I'm still standing." We are literally inhaling the fumes from these things. If taste is all that matters to you then light em up! Happy smoking!

If taste is all that matters to you then light em up! Happy smoking! I completely agree. I don't want anyone to smoke junk, and there is always a risk of smoking junk, even with 100% real sticks. I've had an odd ball or 2 that had an intense stinging burn. My point is a lot of real smokes leave Cuba under the radar, and many here would raise their nose and call them fakes without hesitation simply because the box, band, or code doesn't match up. To each their own, smoke em if you got em and enjoy it while you can with the little time we all have. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

For me, I take them out of their cardboard packgaging (or tubos if they come in them) and put them in my humidor. 1
