Popular Post bishop532 Posted February 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2022 Had my box of PL Montecarlos arrive today. They look, feel, and smoke (I couldn’t wait) perfect. These are one of my top 3 - not just cheap and cheerful, but out of all cigars. Can’t wait til they get a few years on them. Habanos needs to start making more long panetelas / ninfas again. EDIT: For anyone who ordered from 24:24, these are RAT AGO 21. I think you’ll be happy. I definitely am. 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I’m experiencing the same aforementioned issue with the box not closing. I have the same box code, and mine are clearly overfilled. I’ve punched five or six, and almost all of them are unacceptably tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Drguano Posted February 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2022 No need to freeze these Por Larrañaga Petit Coronas after being delivered on a rather nippy -18°C morning. Still, they look lovely in the bright winter sun and have good aroma SOTP. 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jakebarnes Posted February 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2022 A few additions this week while I was on vacation. Pretty excited to dig into the PLPC and RASS--been a while since I've had the latter. Unfortunately the RASS had obnoxious stickers on them so the box is a little worse for wear as I didn't want to see that every time I opened the coolidor. 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JohnS Posted February 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2022 For those of you have have been participating in this hobby for awhile, you'd be aware of certain Habanos cigars that you'd favour in your 'rotation' (I.e. Cigars you turn to on a regular basis because they are personal favourites, usually this can be up to perhaps six or seven different cigars. Also called 'go-to' cigars) and others that are meant as a 'change-of-pace'. (I.e. cigars you enjoy on occasion for whatever reason, it could be that they are hard to source, have distinctive flavours that appeal by having them less often etc.) In my case, I made sure to pick up some singles below for a change-of-pace when I feel like a different cigar from my favourites this year. Below is a 10-count of Rafael Gonzalez Petit Coronas and a 5-pack tin of Partagas Serie D No.6. Both cigars have been dependable over the years for me. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you try heating the sticker up with a hair dryer and slowly peeling it off as the heat releases the glue? I find that works great.

havanaclub Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 What’s your source where you feel the need to freeze? I thought everything on the grey market has already been frozen?Rob/ FOH is not Grey. He’s is talking about his temperature outdoors, and apparently everything leaving Cuba to regional distributors are flash frozen.

Popular Post Connoisseur Kim Posted February 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) Montecristo No. 1 ROP JUL 21 Hand Picked Box from our host has just arrived today. The wrapper of Montecristo No. 1 looks so gorgeous, shiny, and tasty as milk chocolate that my Koraen FOH BOTLs want to buy lots of Montecristo No. 1 boxes on 24:24 sales 😃. Unfortunately, it has a box lid closure issue like some recent Monte 1 boxes and one Montecristo No. 1 stick from the right side of the box has a cracked spot on its wrapper. Other than that, this box is pristine as PSP graded ones and I'm really happy since I finally got one of my favourite CCs in a box 😄. Edited February 21, 2022 by Connoisseur Kim Just noticed the box code of this Monte 1 is ROP JUL 21 not GEL AGO 21 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
