Popular Post JohnS Posted February 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2019 Montecristo No.4 AEM May 2014 I think that this has been the best Montecristo no.4 from this box so far and I've almost finished it (I believe there is one left!). What I adored was the Montecristo cocoa and coffee combined with smooth creamy texture and hints of nut throughout, which was just perfect. Unfortunately, I find that Montecristo No.4's are a lottery at times in terms of flavour and they can vary wildly. Some may surmise that this is due to mass production as a result of worldwide demand (the Montecristo No.4 is one of the most popular Habanos cigars) and I would naturally concur, but I do wish they were more consistent flavour-wise as per many other regular production Habanos vitolas. El Rey del Mundo Demi Tasse SGA May 2017 (thanks @Luca!) Thank you Luca for gifting me this cigar. It's been awhile since I've had one of these, but after having this tonight I wonder why that's been the case? The lemon citrus, shortbread and honey and toasty goodness in this made me lament my current unintentional smoking hiatus of the El Rey del Mundo Demi Tasse. When young I do find these 'toasty', when aged long-term they are more 'creamy'. There was a lot less 'toastiness' in its youth here, and I certainly appreciated that in this smoke. I don't think it will be long until I have another. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOM SEP16 is the box code. Enjoyable one for me. Will smoke again after a month or two. Hopefully it gets better. Give it a good rest & try again. It will turn around.

Popular Post liquid360 Posted February 26, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 26, 2019 I have become madly, passionately in love with these stupid f’ing Trinidad La Trovas... I rank them among my all time favorite things, not only cigars. I’m comforted that I managed to get 6 more boxes, but this is getting very expensive, very fast. Having expensive tastes is a complete nightmare. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 22 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked my box code and it’s UBM OCT 17 so yours are year older. I think I’ll leave them alone for now and maybe try another towards the end of the year.
