@Bigfatpuff Those look awesome! If I may ask, where did you purchase?

Yes they do look awesome. Can you ask where they are purchased on the open forum? The answer is unequivocally no...

Rule 5 No Discussion Of Sources And Prices

There are thousands of online suppliers of cigars around the world. Some good, some average some thieves. This board does not discuss any. This country has some of the most stringent defamation laws in the world and I am liable for any lawsuits that come from threads such as "**** sent me fakes".

You may however pm the request.

Furthermore, something else that can't be done, especially here in the Cuban Cigar Purchase thread, is state the shipping history or current tracking of your acquisition...

Rule 4 No Discussion Of Shipping

Shipping is not discussed on the forum. It is a core rule and has been so since inception and always understood by members.

Posts regarding shipping, regardless of who it is about, will be deleted immediately. Mods will enforce.

Contact your supplier directly to answer any questions or issues regarding shipping.

@cgoodrich, I could have stated these things in a personal message to you but this post is intended for the many instances (in this thread) of the contravention of these rules, especially Rule 4 of late. So please, don't feel affronted by this reminder personally as this is not our intention. Rather, this post serves as a reminder and guide for all.

@JohnS My apologies for the transgression, and no affront taken at all. I appreciate your pointing this out to me, and it shows I need to learn the forum rules better, and learn how to pm.

Thank you John.

Monte #4's (RUB MAY-19) - two slightly different shades in the same box code.  Not at all unusual and something that has been discussed here on many different posts.  Both look and smell very good.  Can't wait until they acclimate to try one from each box and see if the wrapper changes the taste.

My first box of Dip 2s: RAT JUL 20. I’ll be very interested to compare with my RAT JUN 20 Monte no.2s. Turns out my four youngest boxes are now all pyramides from 2020: P2s, M2s, Unicos and now the Dips. These were HQ grade and they smell fantastic: very much in the Partagas zone of vegetal, slightly feral richness. Must wait patiently now...

Be interested to hear what you think.  There are many things that I whole heartedly agree with on this forum.  But Dip 2's being halfway between a P2 & and M2 is most definitely not one of them.    To me Diplomaticos, especially 3's and 4's are unique.  Flavours of lavender, furniture polish, beeswax etc etc. Yes there are touches of paprika (especially more recently with the 2),  but I think the P2 M2 description, sells the D2 massively short.

@99call I’ve never had one! So I’m totally open minded. The smell is nothing like Monte at all... and I appreciate your sensitivity in these things. Lavender I’d never thought of before, but will now look for.

To clarify, and as a UK member you might have some reference point to this.   'Pledge' spray-on furniture polish is a lavender and beeswax mix.   If you've ever smelt that,  I'm almost certain you'll pick up on it.   Either which way,  it's a great blend..... enjoy

I used to polish my mum and dad’s table with it...

Now became a big fan of LGC. Me and my firends bought all the stock the dealer has got. 

[zeebra]

Never had LGC stogies yet, but damn good haul 

[Gamehawker]

Look at what the postman delivered today!?

They look and smell amazing!!! It is going to really hard to not smoke one until they get acclimated. 

And these are less than two years old too and I usually do not smoke any of my cigars until they are at 3 -4 years aged.

BBF's (TUA SEP-20) - PSP / HQ selection from our host.  Look great and arrived in perfect condition. My first box of BBF's - can't wait to try them.

RGPC, UTE ABR 17. 

We all have our preferred wrapper shades, of course. I usually see RGs in more dark chocolate shades. But the best RGPCs I've ever had were a box with light wraps like these. EXCITED! 

CHEERS?

 

I have same box code and mine have similar colored wrappers. I have had since May and just so happens I tried first one last night. Showed promise but for my taste im laying down for another year! 

[StogieSteve23]

A few more PSdP landed today. La Corona factory. RAT-ENE-20. Can't get enough of these tasty buggers.

Cuban Crack baby.  These little guys pack a punch but give them a little rest and you'll be rewarded.  Easy to shred through a box of these in no time, so good call on picking up 2.

Box of robustos and a competition prize from El Prezie.

For comparison, here’s the GR thrown in amongst some standard HOYO DC’s and a RA DC.

@HuffnPuffff very nice! The best kind of FoH prize I think: one cigar you would never otherwise smoke. (Assuming you're not a squillionaire.)

Thank you FOH. 

Does anyone know how UBM code is?
