smbauerllc Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 Have only had a box (10) so far but they have been excellent. Honey, bread, light touch of coffee and maybe a little citrus would be my key tasting notes. The one today had a peculiar touch of umami but peculiar in a good way. I bought these off 24:24 earlier this year so you may want to pretype some emails Thanks for the info. I will have to keep the 24:24 in mind as these go out of stock with my vendor quickly. I found a new vendor recently that i plan to try out soon, that also carries them in singles. They are currently out of stock too, but hopefully will get some towards the end of the month when I plan to make an orderSent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

OK, thanks, nice to know ( even if it doesn't get me the jab earlier ... ) Funny : In Cuba an old guy is called a "Puro" which is confusing to me as it means a cigar in Castilian Spanish ( cigar in Cuban Spanish is a "Tabaco" ... ? 2

Huh, interesting. I always heard it used to specify a cigar that filler, wrapper, and binder were sourced 100% the same region. Lazy day at "work". 19

This is my 2nd one out of a MAY 2019 box, and there is a notable difference since I smoked the last one, about 6 months ago. That one was good. This one was very good. Hoping the next one is great. 22 hours ago, nino said: Got it now, the movie is "Trading Places" and I can't stop laughing at Eddy Murphy's & Dan's show plus a fantastic Jamie Lee Curtis. Try and watch it if you can, great movie ! As for Oliver Kahn - some similarity is there ? Dank Uw well @DanWil84 agree with you re: jabs - stay safe and tot ziens ! One of my favorite childhood movies. When I was a teenager, I wanted to be a commodities trader because of this movie. To this day, I think I could probably still recite every line verbatim. 2
Popular Post SigmundChurchill Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Posted March 3, 2021 What a day to get out of work early! It's gotta be around 60 degrees (Fahrenheit). I would be on the golf course today if it wasn't still covered with melting snow. But this aint so bad either. Siglo VI 31

Unfortunately this is one of my few boxes that have been filled with duds...hoping my 2020 box that’s on its way is far better! Thats too bad that it had issues. I smoke a lot of all different Montecristos and haven't had any issues at all yet thankfully. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

This one has a bit over 2 years...could just be it’s one of those boxes that needs 3-5 years. I stopped smoking my 2018 898’s cuz they went from great to meh. So much of the recent stock is smoking so well young I’m probably being a bit hard headed on the boxes that do need more time. However my least favorite box of Monte 4’s I had was a 2015 box...so more time isn’t a 100% solution! 1

Correct - that is also the meaning of "Puro", which makes it a bit more confusing, but the main meaning in Spain of Puro is : Cigar.

Popular Post cmbarton Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Posted March 3, 2021 My first Punch 48. I usually park my coin with high quality regular production rather than special releases like Regional, Limited Edition, and even LCDH exclusives. But! I sometimes make exceptions (HURRs) and Punch 48 might be another one. This one, courtesy of @jsummers157, is delightful. 27

Popular Post StogieSteve23 Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Posted March 3, 2021 Sticks over the last week. Put the new FOH stand to use. First Boli 1 thanks to @NicPac or @Lrabold89 (sorry dudes, don't know which one I smoked was from who haha). Wish I could get my hands on a couple boxes of these, HOT DAMN was it excellent. The Undercrown Dogma was terrible and squishy as a foam finger.. 35

I hope you're feeling a bit better and the family is all A-OK. I certainly did enjoy it haha. Glad I have a couple singles left. Was reluctant to smoke one since they're not easy to come by anymore, but I figured what the hell! Sure glad I did. 1

Popular Post LLC Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Posted March 4, 2021 Last few days. LTO ABR 20 HDM Elegantes LCDH. Never had one before but ended up with a box due to a mix up. Enjoyed it but will wait a while before I try another. RAT DIC 19 HU Proprios. Love them. BUP OCT 18 Monty PE. Went away from these for a while but this box has me back. Reynaldo Pyramid from 2019. Last one of these. Not being able to go to Havana is cutting into my custom stash ? 33
