dicko Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 In my experience (albeit limited to multiple singles or 1 or 2 boxes only) the Asia Pacific regional editions are generally pretty damn good. Not stupidly priced either. Maybe they aren't "uber premium" but for this punter they are haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikB Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Worst: cohiba1966 that I smoked in the cigar lounge of a London hotel, it cost 100 pounds, unfortunately it didn't do anything for me. Also: the Habanos millennium cigar (cohiba or cuaba, I forget) that cost me some 35 pounds in London at the time. I lit it up on new years eve 1999 and it was unsmokeable, completely plugged.. Oh, the RyJ Churchills Reservas I received at the Habanos festival were also both completely plugged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikB Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Most of the dutch regionals have been pretty decent though, including the RA Robusto Corto. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigcars Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I was able to take advantage of a 3 sampler pack deal of the Montecriston No.2 Gran Reservas upon their debut. I truly enjoyed the regular production Monte No.2's than the Gran Reservas. Kind of bland they were to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stunod Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I buy and smoke Monte Sublimes when I can find them. Big bucks, worth every penny ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdnLimitada Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Good to great: Monte 520, Monte GE, Punch D'oro, Grandiosos but my favorite is the QdO Superiores (if these are considered premiums) Not good: Any RA Extra that I have tried, I have given up on the Upmann 2009 LE for now. They seem so far away that I won't touch one for another year I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
