Edmundo question

[poorman]

Just smoked my first Edmundo, it's from May 12.

It was a complete wind tunnel. If there were a few holes in it I could

have played it like a flute.

Curious if this is typical of this stick. If so they have moved to the top of the golf course rotation.

Thanks

I've not had good experiences with it, suffers from typical monte cq issues, the petit seem more consistently well made from my experience

I've always enjoyed Edmundos from '08 and '09. Haven't bought recent production...can't believe all would be that bad when everything else has been so wonderful.

Only edmundos Ive smoked have been from 2005. All very good, no issues with any of them. Inconsistencies seem to sum up Montecristo as a marca. When they're on they are amazing but there is no in between. The bad ones are baaaaaaaaad!

Got a box from early 2012.

No dramas with the 8 or so I've had

This has been my exact experience with Edmundos.

(sorry, couldn't resist)

2012 box of Edmundos and Petit Edmundos, 2 or 3 sticks out of 25 where wind tunnels in both boxes, the rest where just perfect. How is the rest of the box?

How is the rest of the box?

That was my first one. Will try another tomorrow.

Hi Poorman,

I have a box from SEP 11, and I have only had wonderful experiences with this box so far.

Thank you,

Ditto that. Not Sept but was 2011 and I am almost done with the box. Beautiful

Unfortunate. They are among Matthew's favorite. Maybe we just got lucky with the box we had.

I would always recommend trying more than one stick from a box of cigars before judging the whole lot. . .

[Ptowncigar]

I have 08 tubos, construction has been fine, maybe a little to easy of a draw. But flavor wise, they've been good.

Had very good luck with Edmundos from 2008, 2009, and 2010. I haven't smoked all of mine from those years yet so I didn't see the need to buy newer ones so far.

I have an early 2012 box and it is also very loose. Maybe not 'tunnel', but a bit too loose for my liking.

A few years back I was lucky enough to meet someone online selling Edmundos from 2006 at a great price. These have been some of the best Cuban cigars I've ever smoked, perfect construction and a real rollercoaster of ever evolving flavors. I can't imagine how many rollers produce these great cigars but I'm sure that from time to time a few are constructed with less than perfect characteristics. Its the chance we take when we buy hand made products, I am often disappointed with Cuban cigar products but will continue buying and smoking them until they are no longer available.
