Popular Post JohnS Posted June 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 9, 2020 Quai d'Orsay No. 50 LMB Jun 2019 This Quai d'Orsay No.50 comes from a 10-count 2019 box, and after having perused my Cuban Cigar Website Smoking diary today, I can easily see in my ratings that my 10-count 2018 boxes have consistently rated higher. A number of those 2018 QdO 50s received full marks in those ratings, in contrast none of the 2019 QdO 50s have done so. This No.50 today exemplifies why this is the case. The 2018 QdO 50s have been mainly soft egg and butter brioche bread, cedar and ginger/toffee sweet for me. The 2019 QdO 50s have been more woody and spicy, like this one today, although it did have a little toffee sweetness and Quai d'Orsay-like citrus to redeem it somewhat. If you've experienced Quai d'Orsay No.50s like my 2019 batch, then it's no wonder why the No.54 sells so well in comparison on our forum. I have 4 sticks left from my 2019 box and it's a shame that they've being so underwhelming thus far. Perhaps I should leave them for now and return to my 2018 stock? After all, who knows what further time down can do for these? We shall see! Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.2 ABO Jun 2018 I reached for this Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.2 today because I needed a light cigar after feeling a little queasy in the morning. The cold draw was all cloved spice and vanilla, a wonderful combination that had me anticipating for more! And yes, this did not disappoint. I got that cloved spice and vanilla sweetness on the edges wrapped around a cedar and light powdered cocoa core pretty much consistently throughout. I was grateful as this one cigar was enough to redeem the day for me! 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post havanaclub Posted June 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2020 An absolute tent peg 19 PP tossed. So disappointed as the aroma was outstanding. Zero draw. Even after sticking it with a screwdriver and splitting the wrapper Moved on to a Monte Esp No2.

Popular Post armada_crew Posted June 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2020 A few from the past few days, was really blown away by the massive sweetness in the Connie A, wow. Punch was as advertised, peanut flavors predominantly. First try at the Dip 2, probably a little too fresh, got some sourdough and bell pepper, but not alot, will give the rest of the quarter box a little more time, Cheers, hope everyone has a great rest of the week. 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kongelunden Posted June 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2020 Decided to fire up a La Fuerza - box code LGR ABR19. I did taste a small buttery undetone, but the prevailing taste was mostly bitter. So overall mediocre at best. However, in all fairness, the cigar was enjoyed ROTT and after spending six weeks on the road due to corona - so far from ideal conditions. The burn however was surprisingly quite good - will clearly have to rest these for quite some time before firing up the next 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
