PigFish Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Funny, but I cannot remember the last time I took the time to smell a box of cigars. Probably because I have not bought cigars in so long. I just typically open my humidor (one of them) reach in for the box, take a cigar and run. Or, just grab one from my singles drawers... I honestly cannot remember what one box smells like, much less distinguish one box from another! Perhaps I will start the practice again. Hello, Guy... nice to see you again my friend. We need to catch up when you have some time! -Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmypa Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I'd have to say my stash of Johnny-O!'s that I have stored in a large box in my humi, when I open the box the smell is just intoxicating! As far as reg production I'd say I love the way my box of LGC MdO #3 '02 smell because it is so unique, light, sweet and floral only begins to describe how they smell.

Random Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 my best smell sticks currently are 520s (as someone said still fresh) , Punch RS11 07 and PL PC (Sam's present so no info on year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubba Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 A couple boxes come to mind....have some 2010 Trini Rob Ts that have the most unique scent. The other box are some 2011 BCGs.....exactly how you want a great box of cubans to smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Wow. So much to choose from. I routinely enjoy the aroma of the following boxes. La Escepcions RE. / QdO Coronas from 2011 / Cohiba Piramides 2006 LE / 2004 Siglo VI Jar Some of my vintage stock is intoxicating. Davidoff No 2 Tubo. (1982) Bursts of a perfume like aroma. Floral, but woody. 1926 Clear Havanas. Very odd, unique aromas. Hints of soap, tobacco, wood, pine. 2001 Dip 2's. Nice, solid tobacco earthiness, leather, cedar. Really dark wrappers on them too. Ramon Allones Mille Fleurs. Powerful dark chocolate, cocoa and nutmeg notes. Even more intense when lit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypersomniac Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 The few singles I have of 2009 Mag. 50's smell amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo17pip Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 The first thing that to comes to mind are the slr series A from ARB 11 They smell so good and I just love them. I filled up an old mag50 ten box with them and let them sit for a year. Maybe that helped with the aroma at cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jnaube Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I have a 300 count humidor filled only with Cohibas... The minute I open it, it smells like paradise. It's just like heaven. Aromas of 1966, mixed with PE's, Sig6, Lanceros, Magicos and Genios and some leftover BHK's... It's just perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeafLover Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I giggle when I smell the 898's I bought from Rob a few years ago. Allones Extra smells pretty dam good. But, they just aren't tasting that good right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanbeer Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 A tubed Punch conronation from 1970s, smell like old cheese, amazing... as for newer stuff, a box of 09 punch RS11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk05 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 If you keep your humidor at around 70% or above, everything smells like magic. Especially jars and wetpacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew11 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I would have to say its a tie between my BHK54's and Padron Family #45 maduro's. Both very different, but so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdlfoto Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Upon return from HAV last November I put all my stash from the trip (250+ sticks – mostly Siglo VI , Lancero , BHK, custom rolls) in one cooler. The smell upon cracking that thing open is unparalleled! Sometimes when I’ve had a long/bad day, I go downstairs and just crack it to take a whiff.

mk05 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Not only did this cigar recently make me completely swoon from its aroma and subsequent taste, it made me change my purchase from a box of 520's to a box of these after the first half. Nice, what was the box code on that? MAR OO? Or late '01? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolio Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Two recent purchases, a box of 2012 BoliRC's and 2011 BBFs are pure farmshed, and by far the strongest of my collection. But for the nicest, I have a box of PSP monte 2's that are so dark and oily it smells like I've just tipped a cup of hot chocolate over. I keep mine in their boxes, and open them once a month if not smoking them just to check them, and each time it's a wonderful experience of aromas. My box of Parti 898's smells so strongly of tobacco you can just tell how strong and rich they are without even lighting them. I've a box of 2005 Hoyo Du Prince's that have a very delicate floral type aroma. Love them all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
