Baccy Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Everyone is different. I prefer underfilled to overfilled. Obviously I'd prefer perfectly filled, but like you said you can just smoke an underfilled cigar slower, and then the flavours are more or less ok, and you'll just get less smoke time out of the cigar. If overfilled past a certain point then a perfecdraw won't help and there'll be nothing else to do but hope it gets better resting over time or suffer through a tight draw that ruins the cigar for me. Also everyone's luck is different. It seems despite my preferences, the universe only sends me tight/overfilled boxes and never loose/underfilled ones Thankfully I don't get the overfilled boxes too often.Same here. Most Cubans are plugged rather than underfilled so I never mind seeing one that's underfilled. I can normally fix a wind tunnel smoke by using a small punch, vcut, or in the case of Trinidad, just by untwisting the cap slightly. A plugged stick, on the other hand, can be a real pain to get an acceptable draw, even with a perfect draw...Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t have a cubanesque aroma when I opened the box and they seemed seriously underfilled. I could squish the stick Between my fingers pretty far on the majority. I’m hoping this is just because they were over humidified before shipping. Only thing not making me panic was that I had a seriously underfilled LGC 4 this past week and it still smoked amazing. Just had to smoke it slower. Just an update. I had one of the underfilled cigars rott. Smoked it slooooow and it was one of the best smokes of the year. Pure sugar sweetness I have rarely seen in a cigar. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rhinoww Posted December 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2020 Got a prize pack from FOH. Three are staples in my rotation and will be enjoyed after some rest. Now the Cohiba Sig IV is a new one for me. I keep trying to resist jumping in the Cohiba train. It will be interesting to see how I feel after some side by side comparisons close in time w some of my old faithfuls. Just love the size. Arrived the evening before my birthday, so I’ll count this as a birthday present this year, and the first one. Thanks. 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bijan Posted December 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2020 I was waiting for all my outstanding boxes to get here but got a little surprise today. I was supposed to get 2x dress boxes of RyJ Petit Coronas. But 2x 5x5 cardboard packs showed up. Also 5 random bonus singles. Usually I wouldn't be too happy but the box codes are 07 so I'm not going to say no ? Just hope everything doesn't taste like cardboard by now. Edit: old bands ? 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they've been stored well then I would assume that time frame would still be okay. I'd accept this delivery as a pleasant surprise indeed! 1 hour ago, JayHabanos said: Por Larranaga- MonteCarlo How exciting @JayHabanos ! You've got two boxes of PL Montecarlos with practically the same dating but with different shaded wrappers. I'm eager to find out how similarly and/or how differently they smoke according to flavour. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
