Cohiba Atmosphere Rioja 2011 Reserva - only 18000 bottles produced - plus 3 different Iberico Ham packages and ERDM La Reina and Bolivar Immensas from 1997.

Popular Post JohnS Posted October 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2020 Quai d'Orsay No. 54 MSU Jul 2018 It's been awhile since I've smoked the Quai d'Orsay no.54, approximately six months since my last one. Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck with this 10-count box code thus far and I've gone through half of it periodically over the last two years. This QdO No.54 began as usual with creamy cedar, ginger and hay flavours. There was little or practically no spice, nor complexity throughout the thirds as I smoked this down, although it was impeccably constructed and smoked very well. Ash was consistent. As usual, this was a very mild smoke, you could easily smoke this first thing in the morning and it wouldn't overwhelm your palate. In summary, I aim to smoke a QdO No.50 soon to compare it to this QdO No.54 as I want to keep an open mind on these two releases. Hopefully a superlative QdO No.54 is 'just-around-the-corner' for me! 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BlueRidgeFly Posted October 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2020 PL Panetela UBM ABR 18. These are often really good, other times they are like this one -- mediocre. RyJ Cazadores from 2019. Also mediocre, may need a few years to come around. This may be the closest CC to a Nicaraguan stick that I've had. Partagas Short UER MAR 19. Always good, right? Typical Partagas flavors. H Upmann Connie A BRE JUL 19. Third from this FOH clearance box from last fall. The first two were disappointing, but not this one -- great draw, perfect construction, mild unit it kicked up a bit in the final third, lots of shortbread, citrus, creamy... yes yes yes. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted October 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2020 Quai d'Orsay No. 50 SMA Jul 2018 This 2018 Quai d'Orsay No.50 box has been much better, in general, than my 10-count 2019 box (which I've since finished). I had found, in general, that the 2018 QdO 50s have been mainly soft egg and butter brioche bread, cedar and ginger/toffee sweet in flavour whilst the 2019 QdO 50s have been more woody and spicy. Today's Quai d'Orsay No.50, from my 2018 box, was actually quite good, light in body with flavours consistent with the recent re-branded Quai d'Orsay marca. I got an egg and butter brioche pastry core flavour, some ginger, cedar, toffee sweetness and roasted hazelnut. The only thing that let this cigar down was the thin wrapper which split around the band. It meant that I had to be more careful smoking past the halfway point, but I did manage to smoke it into the final third. Overall, I'd say this SMA Jul 2018 Quai d'Orsay No.50 was still better than most cigars from my LMB Jun 2019 box. Hopefully next time the construction will compliment the flavours! 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
