Boss Hog Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 8 hours ago, Cigarsmoker81 said: I’ve one stick resting, how strong is it compared to 1926? I want to try it but honestly 1926 sometimes knocks me out Very similar in strength, my fellow brother. Such a smooth and well balanced cigar. The billowing smoke, the complexity… Elegance might be the best word to describe the overall experience. Wish I could smoke these on the daily, to be quite honest with you. And this coming from someone who seldom strays from Cuban cigars. Held a tasting/pairing with some local blokes yesterday evening and it was certainly the general consensus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the sweetest cigar I’ve ever had, packs a huge punch. Stewed fruit. Intriguing vegetal note at the back which may come out with age. Prefer these to RASS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Greenhorn2 Posted May 18 Popular Post Share Posted May 18 SLE SEP 2016 Vigia. 3 years ago, these cigars didn't impress me at all. This morning is a different story. Smooth as a baby's butt. Edit: OK, here goes. My palate isn't really great for picking up flavors but here we are. Started off woody with what I would guess as forest floor due to the earthy/mushroom tastes. Transitioned to a more buttery, bready smoke with a creamy coffee in the 2nd third with hints of baking spices and nuts(maybe almonds). Staying pretty consistent flavor wise into the last third. Burn and smoke output was on point. A medium bodied smoke. A 91/92 cigar for me. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we all do, and I think we all agree that perlas, minutos and half coronas fill the same 30-to-60-mn-smoke square, don't they ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerryvonkramer Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I can make minutos last almost an hour but the perlas and half-coronas barely more than 30. Let's not ask my first two wives about making minutos last though😆 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not ask my first two wives about making minutos last though😆 For me minutos usually make a 1h15-1h30 smoke and I once had a huhc who took me 1h30 without a relight. I'm a pretty slow smoker 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
