winelover Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I am a fan of the vitola and brand but I have read on many boards that upmann londsdales suffer from severe draw problems. Does anyone have any personal experience of this? BTW looking at a box of ASP JUN 01's. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you just got them, you should contact the vendor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they suffer from draw problems but that is what a drill bit is for. I know people don't want to take the time to drill a plugged cigar But I feel it's worth it for this cigar. They don't disapoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I have that ASP JUN 01 code - maybe 5 of the 25 were okay. Stay away from that code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I will probably instead settle for 06 Upmann no.2's, sample a couple, then put the rest to bed for a long sleep. Love the marca and very curious to see how they will compare with connie no.1's after 5 years ageing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
