This was simply very, very good by comparison, which I don't mind because if this cigar represents the average then I'd be very satisfied by the time I reach for the last one! What made it very, very good and not sensational like the others was that this was slightly more woody and toasty than the others, and less sweet. The caramel was not as pronounced either. Nevertheless, this was never overpowering and nonetheless easy to draw down on from start to finish. John this review inspired me to pick up a box in today’s 24:24! Thank you for doing mini reviews on this thread! 2 1

Popular Post irratebass Posted April 5, 2019 Popular Post Posted April 5, 2019 I don't smoke a lot of JL 2'S, but a couple of brothers were raving about these, so I had to dig, but found one. I usually only have 1's on hand. I get all the fuss over these now, and may have to seek these out for a future purchase After dentist smoke I'm very good looking, and great with rice 16

Popular Post George-eed Posted April 5, 2019 Popular Post Posted April 5, 2019 Enjoying a lovely Magnum 54 this evening from our host. I haven’t had one in a while because my collection has grown enough now that I can go a month or two between smoking the same cigar. Hopefully I will manage to get some age them. Only problem is I’m now out of space again and I doubt my wife will take too kindly to a 4th humidor in the house! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 17

The stand was a gift when I bought boxes on certain days during December 2018 period. Not sure when they will be up in FOH store. I hope they will soon. Have a great weekend. Regards 2

Those cigar stands were sent out to members during the prototype phase around the New Year period, when purchasing from 24:24, I believe. A group of Sydney members caught up with El Pres this week and we asked about their current phase of development. They're not available for purchase yet, but I'm confident they will be. Indeed, they have become quite popular, I love my stand...very simple yet so handy! 19 hours ago, Kaptain Karl said: John this review inspired me to pick up a box in today’s 24:24! Thank you for doing mini reviews on this thread! It's my pleasure to assist. Be mindful though, I have another Por Larranaga Montecarlos box at home (different box code) which I've smoked halfway through and I concluded that the majority of them were more 'toasty' and 'woody' and less 'caramel' and 'honey' so I've rested that box to allow the tobacco blend/s in the cigars to settle over time. I'd suggest you smoke a few from your box when you get it and see how you go. In fact, I'm sure you will. 3 2

Popular Post JohnS Posted April 6, 2019 Popular Post Posted April 6, 2019 Montecristo No.4 UEB May 2018 This was just the second cigar from the box and it was a little more intense than the last one. Similarly to my Por Larranaga Montecarlos I enjoyed prior to this cigar (which was also a little more intense), I nonetheless didn't mind. Stronger cocoa and coffee flavours, some nut and leather but no creaminess, there was no overwhelming sign of youth other than the final third of the cigar heated up a little. I look forward to my next Montecristo No.4 from the box. 26
