kevinfj Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Hated this when I first purchased the box. But, they have really aged well...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckSARTech Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Are Jorge and Mons the same person? No. One is an older man named Enrique. One is a mid-forties man named Jorge Real Lopes. I figured that would answer the question as to why they would taste differently. Enrique Mons is the "namesake" creator of the cigar. However, he hasn't rolled them (generally) for years. His protege does, Jorge Lopez Leal (close, Shlomo, but no cigar! LOL). I believe that it's been Jorge that's rolled them exclusively for roughly the past 5 or 6 years (Nino may have more specifics on that). And for what it's worth, the ones we picked up this past November, the ones that are in essence the 15th Anniversary batch I believe, are some of the greatest I've had. Wonderful stuff.

Puros Y Vino Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Party Short for lunch. A 2011 stick. Very good earthy flavours, typical Partagas but not as complex as their larger smokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sw15825 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 From Memorial Day, just got around to posting it RASS MUR JUL 12 Amazing richness and flavor, without being harsh to the end. Somewhat muddled but it seems like the blend is right in these. IMO, will be glorious in a couple more years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrody Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Partagas P1 - a third in and I am in 93/94 territory I am convinced that HSA should immediately release these as regular production. What a blend...albeit different than a D4 and an 898V or Short, it screams partagas but adds some new twists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotusguy Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Continued from my Punch no-tobacco day I am sticking with this Marca in a sort of vertical test. Starting out with a Punch Margaritas BD2008. On deck for later a Petit Punch, a Petit Corona, and a Ninfas, as time permits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
