Habana Mike Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Sooo, that double post thing is still happening eh? Could have done one here as the post above is still 'saving' in another window. I've learned that when the site times out, even it if says the operation couldn't be completed, the post gets posted! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've learned that when the site times out, even it if says the operation couldn't be completed, the post gets posted!I have found the same and never try to resend, but it still likes to double up. I guess tapatalk thinks I need to make up for the couple of years that I was just lurking and buying on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westg Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Romeo de Luxe with the lucky dots! How was it ...thought about starting a box last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habana Mike Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 How was it ...thought about starting a box last night. Not a bad smoke but nothing to write home about. On the lighter side of medium, some cedar, light toast and mild spice. Didn't develop much from beginning to end. I am hoping they improve in the coming months, don't think I'd rush out to get another box..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplepie Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Romeo de Luxe with the lucky dots! How'd you fancy them, Mike? Aside: I just heard about the 'lucky dots' a few days ago from a good mate. He said it signified luck and I called him a voodoo witch doctor. Was there a thread on this a while back or is this just a coincidence of two separate people's similar train of thought?

Hmmmmmmm... sounds like an RyJ (good, quintessential flavoured one) then! You're lucky then as mine smoked like a Guantanamera. No joke. Might get better with a year or so of age. But you should know with your experience, Mike, that it may very well not be the case with LES in general... unfortunately Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry.

I could actually see small bumps on the wrapper that are what I believe resulted in the whit spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, interesting that the wrapper is not typical of an LE (lighter colored, not as thick/heavy) so maybe they'll turn in to something in the near term though may not have legs for years of aging. We'll see though, don't plan to light another one in 2014 at any rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were a pleasant surprise. Perhaps they've finally realised the dark wrappers really turn people off? Wait- we're talking about Habanos.. :lol:But like a few good LEs, there's a good chance they're only in their prime within a year or so only. Back on the RyJs! Will be interesting, yes. But personally, they're too much to even buy a box for me to lay down. Too many other good cigars from '13 to lay down for a bit! Stay strong, Mike! Stay strong! Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry.

Maplepie Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Love the tiny pie avatar...well done!Don't thank me! Thank Ross (Colt45) for scribbling the do! Aside: Small, tight pies are always better. Maybe with some meat inside too. Small, Game pies. Mmmmm. Much better when they're wild, free-range game. might hold off for a bit... Don't hold too long. Aren't getting any cheaper... Im personally just holding on them. Full stop! Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartolomeo Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 ERDM petit compania RE France from 09 courtesy of Charlton, highly enjoyable, not worth the $20+ price, still fairly young tasting for a 5 year old ERDM but has a great blend foundation, loved the size for a 80 min smoke ENE 14 Conn A....this example seems sick compared to earlier examples I have had from same box 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onelove Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I unfortunately just finished a monte petite no 2. It was terrible, then read the two review threads on it and thought it was just me, watched the czars video and felt a little better. Nearly lit a JLP cazzie (that I got for free) to get rid of the taste or lack there of. I'm glad I got this ten box cheap. RAE NOV 13. Only positive is copious smoke of which I'm a fan.

subport Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I was digging in my MGR DIC 12 box before I got this one. Both boxes are smoking great, but I like MER JUL 13 HQ better. I think I will smoke these first Good to know, thanks mate. Maybe I'll give it a try too altough my mar 12 box is incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
