What are these please? Are they discontinued formats? I initially thought the box on the left were RGPC but maybe they are longer…

A few things graced my doorstep over the past few days. From our gracious host:

Picadores BRM JUN 22 (these smell heavenly)

Punch 48 BRM JUL22

 

A few other things as well:

SCdlH El Principe BRM JUL 22

SCdlH La Punta BRM MAY 22 (pic to show how they have insanely dark oily wrappers that rival box of Unicos El prez sent me--need to put these down for a bit).

 

 

SP Non Plus (BRT ABR 22, OSG ABR 22)

Cpl quarter packs of HDM de Depute for a first time purchase of this particular stick. They smelt great after I opened the plastic package.  Sweet spicy barnyard.

What's the box code on the avocado?

Some Edmundo tubos from a recent 24:24. I've never had an Edmundo before; is the general wisdom to go now or let them be for a few years?

'21 and '22 PE, Edmundos and DE are smoking beautifully. If I were you I would try one and see how it goes. Put at least 3 to sleep and try them between 2 and 5 years. Anyway, you're in for a treat because they're delicious. My favorite MC cigar these days.

Used it as a size reference.   It was the closest thing within reach once I had opened my package.  Other then the cardboard box….. lol

They are possibly 37 ring gauge x 127 mm (or 5 inches) in length short-filler Rafael Gonzalez Panetelas Extras on the left and similarly sized Por Larranaga Panetelas on the right.

If so, the Rafael Gonzalez Panetelas Extras has been readily available throughout the second half of 2022, but the Por Larranaga Panetelas were discontinued in 2019. There's been hearsay that they've been re-produced since (Sancho Panza Non Plus or even Fonseca No.1, anyone?), but I did an extensive search on our forum last weekend and was unable to find any references past a 2019 box code date.

In any case, just because they are short-filler it doesn't mean they are necessarily inferior in the flavour department. On the contrary, these are both very handy acquisitions as a cigar when one is doing work tasks, for example, and doesn't need to contemplate or ruminate over the elegance of it.

I just couldn't resist... They look and smell absolutely fantastic.

Well done @stevenhaugen!!! H&F always come through. I would definitely grab them if I could.  I’m sure they’ll be wonderful.

You know someone will ask you for a review of the first one you smoke from the box. Just sayin'... 😄

Got a single to taste it. I was told it should rest at least 2 years. Anyone?

I've only had a few of the RyJ Linea de Oro cigars and I felt they needed a little time to settle. Classy cigars though.
