Popular Post LLC Posted November 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2020 Beautiful weather today and it’s supposed to stick around for a while RAG DIC 17 LGC Invictos. Very good. REG FEB 18 Siglo III. I don’t normally smoke a Cohiba this young but decided to crack this box and give it a try. Started out quite tight but manageable, it opened up for the last half but wasn’t as good as usual. I should have grabbed an older one.

Popular Post cfc1016 Posted November 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2020 LGR FEB 18 hoyo petit robusto. Ths box is coming along nicely. Lots of the characteristic "mushroomy" flavor I love in hoyos. Accompanied by a couple cups of earl grey and chai, quite a nice way to start the day. Further evidence that the 16-18 run of TOS/LGR is one of the greats. I woefully dread the thought that someday I will inevitably run out of TOS 16 principes... 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AugustWestNH Posted November 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2020 Mid morning break with Connoisseur #1. Was a single purchase, so no idea on box code or date. Sourdough and sweetness for sure. Matches the beautiful, surprise 60 degree weather! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted November 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2020 H. Upmann Connoisseur No.1 BRE Nov 2018 It's rare for me to smoke two cigars of the same marca in a row, let alone two instances of the same vitola, yet here we are! The late BRE box code 2018 H.Upmann Connoisseur No.1s have been noted on our forum for utilising unfermented tobacco and been sour and/or bitter as a result and lacking in that typical H.Upmann shortbread flavour so it's intrigued me to see how many from my BRE Nov 18 box have been duds, fair, above average or outstanding. Of the five sticks I've had from the box thus far, I've had one definite dud, one fair, two above average and one outstanding. This sixth one was outstanding from beginning to end. Not only was the construction pinpoint, the burn was immaculate and the flavours were 'right on the money'. Make no mistake, this was your typical H.Upmann cedar, coffee, shortbread and cream-textured stick and I enjoyed every minute of it. I'm still intrigued by the box code so I envisage that I'll have some more from it in the next month or two. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a few months off from your box. It was a nice gift from @captaincaveman so I can't comment on the rest of the box. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mprach024 Posted November 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2020 In the middle of smoking this glorious BBF, (this kid was a 93+ point jewel), I get my Covid test results back and I’m positive. Bonkers, only took the stupid test out of precaution after my travel last week. Guess this will be my last stick for a while.

Popular Post BlueRidgeFly Posted November 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2020 All of these were fine, but this PLMC from 2017 was fantastic. Some warm weather, so the PLP needs a margarita. Man, dry boxing these 2018 RASS sticks has made them so good. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kaptain Karl Posted November 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2020 REG OCT 18 especiales no 2. This has been one of those boxes that has not really been on. This one has really nice flavors of vanilla and cream, but just isn’t on the same level as other cigars I’ve had recently. However, I’m a glutton for the laguito no 2 vitola and have 2 more boxes gathering some age. 88 pointer! 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
