riderpride Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Greetings all, I'm curious about the recent performance of prominentes, with the exception of the Lusi which seems to be doing well as of '08 production. I'm off to Cayo Santa Maria next week and have room for a box of DCs in addition to other vitolas; I would like to avoid the possibility of getting a dud box. As I already have a box of Lusis, I'm leaning toward the RAG and the Punch DC. Thanks, and I'll make sure to head into Santa Clara and take some pics of the Che museum for the rotating photo gallery.

rckymtn22 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Enjoy Cayo Santa Maria! Been there twice, kind of a quiet place but a beautiful beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Presidente Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Have a great Trip! It goes without saying to open all boxes you are considering. The box to take home has the right wrapper, the right construction and the perfect AROMA! From 08 in terms of the above the Lusi/Rag's and VRDA lead the pack. Check for spotty underfilling.

BolivarSmoker Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I have said this on a couple other threads, but I will keep on preaching it. I have had some great 07-08 HDM DC's. The HQ box I got from Czar is pristine! Give one a go and see what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riderpride Posted January 29, 2010 Author Share Posted January 29, 2010 Thanks to the both of you. I've done Varadero before and loved it. It sounds as though Cayo Santa Maria is going to be a quieter and considerably more relaxing. Some friends came back from there yesterday and didn't leave the island once; great scenery and great people. Rckymtn - where did you stay each time? The lady and I will be staying at the Melia. Pres - Thanks, the 'shop' description had me leaning more towards the RAG, but the cuban Punch is the forbidden fruit up here in the great white north. Looks like I just might have to get some deep, dank stewed fruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rckymtn22 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I have stayed both of the Melia places. La Dunas was the nicest and try to get a view of the water. Do the tour of Santa Clara, it is worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
