Popular Post David88 Posted June 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 9, 2019 I smoked a Monte 1935 Maltes this weekend. I picked this up in the 1935 sampler from a few months ago and it’s the first I have had from them, although I have previously sampled the Dumas and Leyenda. What an incredible smoke, it’s my least favourite of the three but still fantastic. With the scarcity of Behike and the crazy prices they are going for, I’m not sure why more people aren’t picking these up 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like everyone says, Leyenda is the best of Montecristo Linea 1935 in my opinion. What about yours? I agree that Montecristo Linea 1935 deserves to get more attention since it is not only the super premium lineup of the brand like Cohiba Behike but also out of this world in terms of taste and flavour especially Leyenda ?! P.S. The Montecristo Linea 1935 and others like Connoisseur B are still not available in my country (Korea) even now by the way... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FHFinster Posted June 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2019 The wind kicked the heck out of this one. And (Beach + Sun + Wind) x 5hr = Wicked Sunburn Was pretty cold, so I really had no sense of the sun’s strength today. I should know better though. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted June 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2019 Cohiba Talismán 2017 - Edición Limitada UAO Ago 2017 Do you remember the hype surrounding the release of the Cohiba Talisman 2017 Limited Edition? It was launched in London in October 2017, it sold out quickly despite a hefty price tag and it was subject to rumours of unauthorised pre-sales in the United States or distribution of copied fakes. From a marketing point of view, what more could Habanos S.A want? It is the seventh Cohiba Limited Edition since 2001 (Piramides Extra 2001 and 2006, Double Corona in 2003, Sublime in 2004, 1966 in 2011 and Robustos Supremos in 2014 were the others). It is a Cañonazo Doble at 54 ring gauge x 154 mm or 6.1 inches in length. The common name for this cigar is a Robustos Extra, however take note of that factory name as the Cohiba Siglo VI is a Cañonazo, being slightly smaller, and in my mind, this cigar is its direct cousin in terms of how it smoked. If you have picked a 10-count box of these (or two), or perhaps split them as I have (with our dear friend @Luca...thank you mate), what can you expect? How do you approach this cigar in terms of when to smoke it and how does it compare to other Cohiba vitolas? After smoking this today I can assert that the Talisman is like an amplified Siglo VI, much like the Robustos Supremos was like an amplified Magicos, in my opinion. There was complexity through the thirds too. Prior to smoking it, I untwisted the pigtail and removed the cap with my thumbnail. The draw was fine, as was the smell of hay/barnyard on the wrapper. The cold draw has notes of coffee, nuts and a little spice. The first third saw this at its very best. I was especially impressed by the smoothness and velvety plumes of smoke on the draw, which were plentiful throughout. Cohiba mocha coffee, citrus, a little honey and a buttered cream texture reminded me of some of the best aged Cohiba Siglo VI's I've enjoyed over the years. The middle third saw some spice or white pepper notes and anise sweetness pick up in the blend. At this point I wanted to compare notes on the retrohale as I find aged Cohibas very pleasurable to exhale through the nose, and this did not disappoint, it had quality spice but did not overwhelm via retrohaling at any point. The final third saw change further still. The cigar picked up in darker coffee, earth and leather notes but it still had that honey and anise sweetness. It was easy to nub. My conclusion on the Talisman? It ended up being a great choice to celebrate my birthday this weekend. Like the Robustos Supremos, this will get better with a few years as the middle and final third meld and becomes more akin to the flavours in the first third, no doubt. However, I enjoyed the cigar for what is was. I wouldn't hesitate to choose it to celebrate another milestone event in the near future. 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bri Fi Posted June 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2019 Partagas Serie E no2. Fireproof binder for the first two thirds. Construction was shit. My first E2 but it was ROTT so probably some moister content issues. Next one will be a year from now. Trinidad Reyes ARS SEP 17. Had put the E2 down. You can see it blew up in the background. Crazy how you can want a cigar to relax and if you get a bad one you end up with a worse mood than when you started. Much better now. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CampDelta369 Posted June 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2019 Another great impromptu meal with neighbor. New Zealand Lamb chops, Colorado Elk Ribeye, Gluteney IPA, and Laphroaig Single Malt. Oh, Diplomaticos No.2 for me and MC#2 for me mate since he did the grilling and kept my glass full. The Dip No.2 was cigar of the month. A single out of the store? Smoked like an aged beauty. He nubbed the MC#2 as well. Cheers 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
