If its too fresh it may not taste well. Age it 90 days before smoking any cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These have been in cabinet humi since May. I gifted one to a very seasoned cc smoker of 30 yrs and he liked it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These lonsdales were discontinued a decade ago(?) and I grabbed last box from local shop. Most have been heavy cedar but I try one every now and then 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post smbauerllc Posted July 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2021 Montecristo No.2 Tied for my favorite Montecristo Extremely tasty as always and perfect draw,burn and construction yet again. Always keep some of these and the No.3's on hand Excellent cigar all around La Aroma de Cuba Edicion Especial no.1 Not very good in the taste department, first half required 3 to 4 puffs to get any smoke volume, burn required constant correction in the first half too. All around just not a good smoke. Definitely won't be buying again 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kaptain Karl Posted July 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2021 SdP yesterday and La Punta today. The SdP was very good. I was hoping the La Punta turned the corner at 90 days. It’s improved but still far from a flavor bomb. 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious as I have smoked both young and really enjoyed them both enough to but more Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk I just find the young San Juans a little rougher with more of a peppery bite when they're young whereas the young Rio Secos all have been smooth, creamy, and twangy without that bite...just my opinion. The San Juans do age into smooth twangy goodness after a few years though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say I have noticed the peppery bite, but I haven't smoked any in a few months, so possibly don't recall as that isn't really a turn off for me Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DanWil84 Posted July 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2021 Monte Petit Windtunnel ehhh Edmundo MLU ENE 18 while watching Ken and Rob doing the double review of this stick aged vs "fresh". 0 resistance on this one. Compared to the first one of this 10 box I smoked almost ROTT (after about a week at my preferred rh) a big difference, this is about 6 months stored. First one was either a dud or to wet. Great flavors, bit bolder than I expected. BTW the first review of ken and Rob sitting together, lets hope you guys can get back to those very soon, love the dynamic more than the present reviews.

Popular Post LLC Posted July 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2021 Week off continues. Great day and a solid line up of HU cigars. Walked through some trails for an hour and a half. Cleaned the car engine and engine bay. Did the rims and exhaust pipes. Made on the KJ what my wife called the best pork chops she’s ever had and roasted another batch of maple syrup drizzled, salted pecans. Now going to relax and watch the NBA finals. HU Connie A BRE MAY 19. After saying how good these BRE code cigars have been, I pulled this one and it seemed very packed, enough that I was concerned. Turns out it burned like a champ and was very good. RAT DIC 19 HU Proprios this box has been solid. Grapes are coming along nicely. After dinner a sublime ARG ABR 14 HU Sir Winston. Wow. 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
