Popular Post ReturnFreeRisk Posted April 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2021 AF short story maduro with a few years on it is really tough to beat at the price point. Admittedly, I am a bit biased to the marca after reading the Fuente family story book. Remarkable tale.

Excellent stick. Thanks, brother! I hear rumblings that the crew might be ready for a throw down sometime this summer. Stay tuned 😉 Great view! Glad you’re enjoying it! I’m definitely ready for another Herf whenever it’s feasible again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darker wrappers with far more oil than my other box of Coloniales and it’s showing. Definitely needs more time before the stars come together! I’m having to work from home the next few days so 2 a day training begins now! After yesterday’s disappointment this 2 year old mag 46 is magnificent! It’s smoking more like a Connie 1 than anything.

GolfT3 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 @cgoodrich Similar story here. I fell in love with the brand as a kid, my dad was a Porsche fanatic. Was finally able to pick up a ‘14 Cayman at the end of February and have already put 3k miles on the clock. Awesome cars and a fantastic brand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being based in Europe helps I guess but there are still some that seem harder to find in smaller quantities to try out Yeah, very true. I just found a vendor with singles of the Coronas junior, so at least I will be able to try one more out 23 hours ago, Chibearsv said: Smoked 4 or 5 different robustos this weekend to try for a review and only the BRC was even close to acceptable. Must be me. Tonight starting with Rio Seco and it makes me want to throw rocks at all those robustos. Really enjoying this one. Glad to hear you enjoyed the Rio Seco. Just ordered my first ones a couple weeks ago and waiting for them to arrive. They seem to get good reviews, but seem to be somewhat unknown and obscure. Don't see them mentioned much 23 hours ago, Chibearsv said: Smoked 4 or 5 different robustos this weekend to try for a review and only the BRC was even close to acceptable. Must be me.

Curious which ones you didn't enjoy as I'm a big Robusto fan. It's definitely my preferred vitola 21 hours ago, baltic445 said: Vigia. Mid 19 box date, not sure offhand. Possibly my favorite cigar.

As I said in my post it may have just been me (due to weather, allergies, etc.) but the Rio Seco 2 days later knocked it out of the park. I certainly wouldn't take my opinion of a single bad day of smoking as an indictment of the Vitola. I'm pretty sure it just wasn't my day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird, all consistently good Robustos for me with the exception of one dud CoRo recently.

Is the Exhibition profile a bit stronger and sweeter? I would say that they are about the same in strength and haven't really noticed any sweetness in the EX #4, but I don't have the greatest pallet from being a 30 year cigarette smoker. I think both are great smokes and very consistent in every regard Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is strange because it’s quite different than most other Marcas who most will share at least some similarities. Wonder why that is. I guess it’s because if I want to show an NC smoker what Cuban twang is, what better stick to represent? Idk....just rambling...happy stupid Monday interesting observation since the last Lusi i had was outstanding as well. Definitely a great blend and a high bar to meet.
