rfenst Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Just need some recommendations from you all. Box codes would be nice, but just the year will suffice. TIA!
maverickdrinker Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 2010 and 2011 Cohiba siglo VIs have been great. light wrappers, excellent construction and good ROTT
dicko Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Alot of my smaller sticks from 10 have been excellent. Boli PC, Party Short, Trini Reyes, Siglo I, rascc, etc...Haven't tried too many 11s, but what I've had has been OK. Nothing that has stood out and screamed "smoke me now!"... good to hear I need to restock on smaller sticks
CBL Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 RASCC POL NOV 10 Amen to that! Also PL Montecarlos URG NOV 10 are smoking great!
randomhero1090 Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Smoked my first RASCC from a box POL MAR 11 and it was just dandy. Not once did I think the cigar was bitter. I also have some early '10 RASS that are smoking great, don't remember the box code off the top of my head. BUT i'd wait on PSD4s and BBFs. I have early '10 boxes of both and they need time. Nice smokes, but you can taste a little bitter buildup after the last half. Purging helps, but I think age will help more.
ewipper Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Just need some recommendations from you all. Box codes would be nice, but just the year will suffice. TIA! In the words of Min Ron Nee, opinions are opinions, but sales figures do not lie. Just check out live from the humidor. That tells it all.
dB69 Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 In the words of Min Ron Nee, opinions are opinions, but sales figures do not lie. Yes, but sometimes trend is more the driver than quality...
bstarrs Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 I've found that the 2011 Bolivar PCs and Partagas Shorts have been great ROTT.
nonameno Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Hello Fellow FOHer's, Here's another vote for JL2 (SAO AGO 10) and both RASS and RASCC (POL NOV 10). All right and flavorful. Thank you, Curtiss
investandprosper Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 I've smoked several Monte 4s from a POL SEP 10 box, and every one has been fantastic. Punch Petit Coronas Del Punch from URG MAR 11 have been stellar as well.
Dbone Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Man I'll tell you, the 2010 Monte 2's are out of this world. I've also been very happy with my box of PSD4 from March '10. Great stuff.
j0z3r Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 I've smoked through most of a cab of Partagas shorts in the past couple months from March 2011, aside from a couple duds, these have been great.
ksblazer Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 I only sampled 1, but the box of 2010 Bolivar Royal Coronas that I have are going to be very good smokes.
vivalanation734 Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Good to know Boli PCs, RASCC, PL Montecarlos and other thinner cigars are smoking well.
laficion Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 I received this box of Bolivar Coronas Extra last week with a box code ROU NOV 10 I could not hold back so, I smoked one tonight. Woww, great Bolivar tastes, animal, barnyard, leather, creamy and they are not even 1 year old, they are fantastic now. Grab them if you can.
Len Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 I only sampled 1, but the box of 2010 Bolivar Royal Coronas that I have are going to be very good smokes. I must agree with this. I've smoked through 5 BRC's from a box of ABR2010 that are lovely!

Thanks for these recomendations, I think I need to revisit the RASCC--I'm in need of some more small smokes, but can't justify the price on the Sig I (and already have the ohters). For me, well I don't smoke too many Habanos that young. But the Trini Rob T, BRC, and Party short I've enjoyed from 2010, and more recently a RASS that was very good to me (first young RASS I've liked, will have to keep experimenting)!
