Hats off, stellar box Pure luck. I bought these blind. Despite El Prez and others' seeming lack of concern, the "Last Box Codes" thread from last week has me concerned. So I'm prioritizing grabbing 898s as my budget allows. They're my favorite day to day smoke, and a worry that they're going the way of of the Des Dieux hangs over. If I'm wrong, the downside is having more of my favorite day to day smoke on hand. They're not quite as light as they appear in the photo, but they're a bit lighter than I'd usually choose.

They look great, and yes, best stock up on these whilst you can. In the new reality, you will be buying a flat box of 10 for the same price.........if not more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went straight to ordering a second box after reading that thread. Just came in yesterday. Excellent day at the mailbox yesterday. I splurged dearly here, as a reward for recently completing an intense 9 week resort renovation project on time. These are absolutely stunning in every way. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you were asking someone else, so I hope you dont mind me giving my opinion. The only way they compare to each other is that they are supposed to be the best of their marcas. So it would be like comparing beluga caviar to kobe beef. They taste nothing alike, but the link is that they are both the best of what they are. If you like Cohibas, you will probably love Behikes. If you like Montecristos, you will probably love the 1935s. But in my own experience and opinion, the Dumas dont belong in that category. The Maltes and Leyenda are much better examples. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very thankful for the video doorbell today. I was on my way home from my daughter’s soccer game, when the doorbell on my phone rang. I had a feeling this is what he was holding, and I was able to convince the mailman to wait a couple of minutes until I got home. I have to admit, that's the coolest looking mailman I've ever seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SonGoku Posted October 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2019 Just had a box of these in the mail today. I’m eager to try one after watching @JohnS reviewing these on youtube. But with a box code from march this year I would guess they need quite a bit of rest time before they reach full potential. I forget if you address this in the video John? Is it +5 years as the PLPC? 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are approachable younger than the Por Larranaga Petit Corona. My view is that if you get a 'caramel' hit from them than they are good to go, and that honestly could be when they are 12 to 24 months down, perhaps sooner. If they are more 'woody' and/or 'toasty' for you, give them a little more rest. This could be past the 2 or 3 year mark. The main thing is to sample one every 3 to 6 months to see how they are coming along. You will know when they are approaching their peak. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
