Some prefer darker wrappers, but those smooth, just under colorado beauties will be a gorgeous, slightly lighter-bodied smoke. Citrus, butter and grass... only Cohiba does that.

Bri Fi Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 @zuhaib those sig VI look absolutely amazing. I’m truly jealous. If those are HQ then I’d pay to see PSP that look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already smoked one with a few friends (We did it in a backyard, one is tested daily for his job, me and my other friend WFH and are low risk). It was not bad, for sure needs a few months down to fully shine. Next are some QD Senadores EL2019, PTG Feb 2020. Got it in a split from a discord channel I hang out in. Have not smoked any yet, I think some more time before I light one up. The next are what I got today, Siglo VI HQ from FOH. They look pretty good, i notice some small "dust", maybe mold? in one of the photos it looks like mold but it come off very easy. For sure going to wait a few months, maybe try a few years. I missed today 24:24 CoRo but I need to get more inventory so I can age more. @zuhaib Not mold, it is called bloom. Natural process from aging. Very nice acquisition you have there!!!

Bloom or plume do not exist. That's just my personal opinion though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have collected and smoked CC and NC over 30 years. I’ve encountered both plume and mold (mold only once when I was a newbie and finding my way...). It only happens sporadically, and not all cigars from the same box. Here is an article on the subject, and there are many more out there.

Popular Post GVan Posted March 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2021 Latest arrivals -- another box of JL2's; brings me to 5 boxes which is enough for a while -- the UTL and MTS box codes for JL2's and JL1's (7 boxes) have been on fire! This one's (UTL SEP-19) and looks as fine as the others! Next delivery was a box of Parti Shorts from another of my favorite box codes (MSU SEP-19). Been buying a lot of 2020's and late 2019's when I find them. Away for a 6 month rest .... 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he states exactly what his motive is for the article and his thoughts. This was just one of many links I grabbed, perhaps with more time I would find a better suited article with peer review. For now, I’ll leave it to each of us to decide for one’s self. Enjoy your next herf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bigfatpuff Posted March 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2021 Well well well, today is my big day. I just cannot forget this lovely cigar. So long story short, I found a few EMS boxes in my friend’s club. I bought one box. Then I smoked one on site. It was more than perfect, I decided to buy two boxes, one for my best cigar buddy. He gave me half box of Cohiba 1966 as a gift last year. It’s my turn to return the favor. I also see a few boxes of ROBUSTO RESERVA COSECHA 2014 in the shop, I have never tried. The price is quite good. Then I end up with two boxes of Robusto Supremos 2014 and one box of Robusto Reserva COSECHA 2014. I remember I talked to my wife earlier this week. I told her cigars were too expensive nowadays. She taught me to smoke less, but smoke nice ones. Do not smoke in the bathroom everyday, go to the club twice a week. 从我的 iPhone 发送，使用 Tapatalk 34 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoked one out of the NOV box other day just to give it a try and was very pleased. It was slightly underfilled, but far better than being too packed in my opinion. Easy to draw and nice nutty/creamy/slight floral flavors. On 3/5/2021 at 7:37 AM, Devo said: Steve - I received the same box today (BRE NOV 18). It does look and smell amazing! I am going to smoke one ROTT tonight and see how it goes... I'll be in touch! @Devo what did you think? I smoked one and was pleasantly surprised.
