2 more boxes of JL 1's (UTL JUL-19 on both) - gone deep for me on these at six boxes of 2019's.  These are a little lighter than the first two UTL boxes that were MAY-19 and the right one definitely has a rougher looking wrapper.  Also, not as much sheen to the wrappers.  Will put these down for 2 to 3 more years of rest before trying one.

RyJ Mille Fleurs

Ramon Allones Superiores

Montecristo Petit Edmundos

Five and a half years on the MFs and 3 and a half on the RAs. ??????

CHEERS?

 

 

Really enjoy the RyJ Petit Royales and was debating a box of Mille Fleurs. Any similarities? Enjoyed that charred cherry note

I havent smoked many MFs, but the ones I've had do contain Romeo DNA. They arent as complex as a PR, and any of that cocoa and cherry in a PR is  lighter in these. But the MF is also a bit less expensive than the PR too. I'm liking them for an inexpensive quickie. But NOT taking cost into account, the PR is better in my opinion. 

Perfect! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

A well traveled box of HdM Escogidos arrived today. SOU JUN 20. Very nice aroma...

[prshah25]

Siglo VI Tubos arrived from the hosts! 

 

[Kaptain Karl]

So excited that the Coronas Claros are back in regular production! These have darker wrappers than my MSU ‘18 box but they have a lot of oil and aroma. Hopefully this time around I can load up on a couple of boxes!

Got some long and skinnies for ageing... MAR JUN  20 Cohiba Lanceros and RAT JUN 20 PLMCs. One final purchase is on its way and I will be done for the year.

@benfica_77 I told myself I was done back in April. Thousands of $ later, I have another new Coolidor to store my “shouldn’t have looked at today’s 24:24” boxes.

Yes 24:24 can be awfully tempting. The Mrs. was giving me the look when these 2 packages arrived today. I showed her I didn't have anymore room in my 2 tupperdores. My goal is no cigar purchases next year except for the Portuguese regional if it comes out. Instead spend on a nice humidor to stored the cigars, i'm leaning towards the Avallo 2000 cooled edition.

@AJS...they look awesome! Are those from the Nov 16th 24:24? I snagged the 2 box deal but haven’t yet received shipment confirmation, and don’t expect them shipping until this week if lucky.

I will send a DM (rule 4)

[Amanj]

Bought these from a local b&m, feb 19 box code and was surprised how dark these sticks looked when I first opened the box! Gonna let a handful rest in my glass top humidor while the box sits in my pelican humidor for long term storage.

Me every time after I tell myself I’m done buying off 24:24 for awhile. 

[Kongelunden]

These arrived on the doorstep today, kindly provided by our host ? They spent some weeks on the road so will need a bit of rest, however, I'm unsure whether the Famosos can be enjoyed young or need a longer rest !? 

[Drguano]

A very nice HQ box of Romeo y Julieta Churchills was a handed to me by a government employee this morning. They look and smell great! TPL JUN-20.

[Bijan]

Siglo II from 24:24. One lighter and one darker. Lighter one is MAR factory code.

HQ box of Monte 4s. LEP OCT 16

Connie 1's came in today.  These were from the 11/8,  24:24.  I thought the box code shown that day was  BRE DIC 19 and not the dreaded BRE 18 codes.  It was probably me seeing things, but can anyone confirm?

It was indeed BRE DIC 19 according to my notes, but that's just the most common code, not the code for all boxes.

I just got two boxes from the 11/3 24:24 that were listed as REG FEB 20, and I got MAR ABR 20, and UMR MAR 20.

That’s when “Mostly” is listed, it’s not all the same code, they list the code of the most recent or numerous of the lot. Same thing happened to me. I think these will be fine with some more rest, as I bought from that same order that you did and got the same box!

I get the “Mostly” part and not all boxes will have that code.  Just didn’t expect it to be off a whole year, lol.  Anyways, after all the talk about avoiding 18 Connie 1s, I hope these dont have the same fate.  I’ll rest these for 4 months and hope for the best?
