Popular Post JohnS Posted November 4, 2019 Popular Post Posted November 4, 2019 Montecristo No.4 UEB May 2018 Today's Montecristo No.4 was the tenth from this box, so I've gone through 40% and thus far I'd say I had 7 great examples, 1 very, very good one, 1 good one and 1 average one. The last one was the average example, today's was simply a good pass. The reason today's Monte 4 wasn't elevated to the higher echelons was because the quintessential Montecristo milk coffee and cocoa (or chocolate) was simply so muted, I could barely register it. Thankfully the nut and citrus twang more than made up for it, so the cigar was not totally lost. I am contemplating whether to have another soon or perhaps re-visit in a month or two. I am desperate for a superlative example the next time I reach for one from this box. Why does the Montecristo marca put me in such a quandary on a regular basis? Why, I ask, why? 21 1
Popular Post Jbhunter223 Posted November 4, 2019 Popular Post Posted November 4, 2019 Haven’t smoked in a while! Took the day off to get the radio/touch screen in my truck fixed. Have to wait on parts now. Took the rest of the day to clean the garage. Went with a ‘14 DD, was good but not as good as the last one I had. Gona let the rest sit a while. 19

I believe they were BRE '18, I think JUN. I got a handful from a member here who snagged a box. Definitely well rested almost to 90 days. It was worth the wait! 1

Popular Post CampDelta369 Posted November 5, 2019 Popular Post Posted November 5, 2019 Going through some old 15 yr NC stock. Olivia V was one of my favorites back then. Still a fine smoke. Not the Full body spicy young beast anymore. Partagas Short to finish the show. I’m reminded again of why I’m here at FOH. No contest for me... Cheers 19

Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk Oh, every time I watch your daily cigar smoke posts, I can see a cup with spoon behind the cigar, which is definitely a cup of coffee, Raskol ?! Now, I also get what C&C Time means ?! 5

Popular Post Chucko8 Posted November 5, 2019 Popular Post Posted November 5, 2019 C&C time this morning with a short. Great little flavour hit of grass and honey. Perfect when time poor. 16
Popular Post Edward7 Posted November 5, 2019 Popular Post Posted November 5, 2019 A basic rotation cigar with a book outside tonight. Came from a 25 box and this may be the last of that one. Quite a dark wrapper for an Epicure No. 2 and it smokes perfectly with a great burn. 18

Popular Post JohnS Posted November 5, 2019 Popular Post Posted November 5, 2019 San Cristóbal de la Habana El Príncipe TOS Jun 2016 This was the best San Cristobal de La Habana El Principe I've had this year in 2019, bar none. The reason for this is simple, it oozed in flavours, especially pancakes. Sure, I got that cocoa, coffee and molasses sweetness, but the combination of the mild strength and soft pancake flavour and texture was heavenly. I don't mind a little spice in these from time-to-time. There was none today, yet the cigar was so good I didn't miss it. Also, it gladdens my heart when I have such an outstanding cigar experience and it's from regular production Habanos stock and not a Limited or Regional Edition example. 26
