Popular Post RDB Posted April 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2020 A nice PLM in the sunshine and birdsong today. LGR AGO 18. Doesn’t look very special, does it? Pale and dry. But a lovely fragrant sweet woodsmoke aroma and a satisfying experience again from this box. Fairly punchy, and a nasty black ash, suggests long life ahead. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted April 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2020 Nudies N3 Carlota If you aren't familiar with the Nudies releases on our FoH forum, I can tell you that they are a 2019 collaboration between El Pres and master Cuban roller, Hamlet Paredes using Non-Cuban leaf. Specifically, the filler is made up of Nicaraguan quality aged seco and volado, there is no ligero which means no strong pepper and less 'kick'. The Nudies N1 Lancero was designed to replicate the Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No.1, the Nudies N3 Carlota was designed to replicate the Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No.3. Both Partagas cigars were discontinued in 2010. The Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No.3 was 35 ring gauge by 143 mm (or 5⅝ inches) in length. The N3 Carlota is slighter bigger and longer, 38 ring by 152 mm (or 6 inches) in length. The reason for this was the difference in blend and taste once it got down past the 38 ring gauge mark in testing. Hence why the N3 Carlota is slightly bigger than the Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No.3. In comparison to the N1 Lancero, which is the same ring gauge but 40 mm (or 1.6 inches) longer in length, the N3 Carlota had similar flavours but was much more bold in its leather and more diminished in its sourdough. There was some mild sweet cocoa and Partagas-type spice at times. In summary, this N3 Carlota was even more full-flavoured than the N1 Lancero yet I'd still label it every bit as classy an effort as the N1. I was fortunate enough to discuss the N3 Carlota with El Pres whereby I noted, in my opinion, that the Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No.3 tended to be more 'toasty' or crispy from my memory. He agreed, but they did what they could with the resources they had. By those standards I concurred that El Pres and Hamlet did a fine job. Yes, a fine job indeed! 28 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raskol Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 How was it? I’ve only got one box, but they have all been bland and disappointing, with very little of what I think of as Rafael Gonzalez character.My first one was more than year ago. Having doubts about this one before I lighted.. Pretty bland like what you experienced.First third was smooth and mild with some cocoa and hay aroma..Retrohale was easy..no spice or pepper at all...Second third..hints of leather, nuts & cocoa.. Strength picked up a lil..Ending.. Leather & cocoa mostly...could sense it needs more time..for the flavors to stand out.Overall much better than my first one. Will be looking forward to the next one in a few months time..#staysafealways Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
