Popular Post smbauerllc Posted June 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2021 Zino Platinum Scepter Series Grand Master Smoked a fair number of the Zino's about 10 years ago when I smoked mainly nc's. So have had this before, just never this particular size Excellent in every regard. Great taste and perfect draw,burn and construction. Even the appearance was outstanding. Nearly invisible seams and only a couple very thin veins. Perfect size too. Smoked for exactly an hour, which is what I prefer Will definitely be buying more '05 RyJ Exhibicion no.4 Excellent. Love the current production ones, and this still had the taste I like about them, but softer and mellower. 16 years definitely made it a great smoke in every regard Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big fan of the Reyes and Coloniales. Didn't care for the Vigia, which is actually fine by me since its a fair bit pricier than those two.

Also love the Montecarlos. Its one of the few cigars under 40rg I smoke. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Cigarsmoker81 Posted June 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2021 I rarely smoke NC, this guy is good but draw is a bit loose and it’s strong ( for my taste) especially after a very light dinner ! 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most cases, I opt to buy the Siglo VI, which I find to be more subtle/less bold than the Esplendido. So it all depends on your palate. I always like to keep a couple of boxes of Esplendidos around for the sake of variety. I have to admit Elliot that I thought the Esmeralda may have been sneaking into that top 3 list for you mate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is. It's my number 4. Might even be my number 3, but the prices are still reasonable relative to the Cohibas, so I am trying not to talk them up so much. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LLC Posted June 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2021 Trinidad day 👍 RAG SEP 17 Reyes. Always enjoyable. TLE SEP 20 Esmeralda. Rarely do this but it’s only been in my humidor for a little over a month. I have not had one yet and wanted to try it and it was impressive. Will need to get more 😋 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they only come in boxes of 10, and they go through long periods where you cant find them anywhere, so I smoke them more sparingly. I would also put CoRo and Media Luna ahead of Siglo IV. I like Siglo IV a lot. It is one of my favorite 2nd cigars of the day, but it is not a 1st cigar of the day for me. 52 minutes ago, LLC said: Trinidad day 👍 RAG SEP 17 Reyes. Always enjoyable.

Popular Post FlyingGlass Posted June 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2021 Took the plunge on delivery day with an ENE 2021 RJ Churchill from 1/4 box sales. Beautiful cigar...golden hour sunlight made it look a bit more rosado than it really was but the first half...so pleasant. One of those cigars I wonder how the flavors are packed in there! Rose water, toasted tobacco and hints of cherry. Just so encouraging! Slightly more challenging on the draw but hey, it was ROTT. Second half, all the reasons we don’t/shouldnt or... are encouraged not to expect much from cigars right off the truck. In part I went for it after seeing a 0, 30, 60 day experiment Prez did last year on these and the Monte 2. One thing to read it...I had to live it! No regrets though. It’s been years since I had an RJ Churchill and this just reminded me what I have to look forward to down the road. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to hear your thoughts behind this choice There's not a whole lot to say. I really like the taste of the Media Lunas. I have no control over what I like.🤷♂️ If I did, Vegueros would be my favorite cigar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
