Very interesting review, Rob. This one seems to fall outside the profile with which I am familiar. May be worth a go.

Have you tried any '06 Grandes de Espana? If they have this strength and complexity, they might be legendary.

I haven't tried an 06 GDE but I will keep a look out. My work never ends ;-)

I got an 05 box and have smoked 1 and it wasn't too enjoyable. I have decided to wait another year before I break it open and torch up another. I see potential though!

I have a box of July '06's that where very nice at about the 6 month point. Fruity mild to medium body creamy sweet finish and easy on the nose exhale. But a month later ,wooh, just like Robs review, peppery very harsh on a nose exhale and only hints of what is was. Needless to say I've put them away for a bit. If they come back around to my intitial impressions and improve on that profile its going to be one hell of a smoke.

Forgot your cutter at home and used your teeth in the cuban way apparently :-D !

Obviously it was quite a nice smoke, your pen did not move an inch ;-) !

Always a wonderful cigar that gets far too little attention. I have some 98 cabs that just keep getting better with age. As Havana's go the CS is IMO one of the most elegant cigars they produce.

» I have seen these referred to as both a Robusto and a Hermoso No 4.

» Which is the correct definition??

»

Hermosos No.4 - 48 x 5'' (127mm)

Posted

Hermoso no 4 is indeed the correct description.

To me they are Robusto's. When you are on my deck and I hand you a ERDMCX I will ask if you are in the mood for a Robusto....not if you are in the mood for a Hermoso No 4 :-D

» To me they are Robusto's.....

I've heard, from a source that shall remain unnamed (Lisa), that the reason

sizes are sometimes "confused", is that what is sometimes referred to as

"My morning Merlo coffee" is actually some type of 100 proof distillate.

I wonder what else the size of gets exaggerated while "having coffee"

I was lucky to get a handful that are 5yo and they are unbelievable. I may be forced to buy an entire box soon.

I just recently recieved my 98's and as usual I smoked one OTT...I was amazed at the flavors and taste of this awesome cigar...my experience with OTT is sometimes its a hit and sometimes a miss....this was a HIT and I cant wiat for them to aclimate

Wow, that threw me at first, too! I looked under El Rey De Mundo and saw nothing. Then I caught them down the list under Rey De Mundo. They must not like definite articles down under? ;-)

They don't have a cab but they carry a box of 25. I'm a fan of this stick, too. Haven't tried the young ones yet. It sounds like a wild ride from your enjoyable review. Thanks, Rob! :-D
