2006 Club Habana Mons custom laguito no. 2 (XNYRW6)

[Bijan]

This one was from the Canadian box pass. Didn't know what to expect. It weighed in at about 9.5g. Used a punch, draw was a bit tight, used the perfecdraw a tiny bit.

First third started out fruity like a Punch with a tiny bit of spice, slightly creamy.

Second third became sweeter. Melon and old time bubble gum. And also creamier. This was the best third.

Final third became a bit more savoury, some woodiness and generally the flavour of herbs. Cigar also wouldn't stay lit anymore and needed a lot of touch ups.

Overall a great cigar with a bit of a lackluster finish.

70 minutes not quite to a nub. Weather was -6C/20F.

Nice review from a dedicated cigar connoisseur and Canadian. -6C/20F outside with a nice looking heater.👏👏 👏Well done.

Sigh...the memory of so many Monsdales smoked in the early 2000's.

My whole life I've been jealous of those that had access to the famous Monsdale. My favorite size! I bought a Juanita Laguito#2 at Melia Cohiba when I was allowed to go, foolishly didn't buy the bundle. She must have had the Fundy blend that weekend. Awesome heater!!!🥶

Nce review. Furthermore, did you upgrade your phone because those pictures are notably sharper than your previous image uploads in other posts?

Yes John good eye! I got the pixel 6. I had a lg g8 before.

These are using the wide angle camera, the regular camera is even higher resolution but it is a bit of a hassle to keep the cigar in focus due to the shorter distance it targets.

Edit: this is also using a special night mode that does much better on light balance

Nice work… Although I was a little distracted waiting for a moose to come out of the shadows.

Usually it's just skunks with the occasional raccoon, haven't had a coyote in a while, but the rabbits are increasing so it's just a matter of time 😉
