ajgagnon Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I was impressed by the Punch half corona, rather unexpectedly. I'm also a firm believer in plmc. Funny, I never expect a small cigar to be impressive, but they certainly can be. I may end up wanting more, but these meet the need for quality in short time format.
mgravito Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 QdO Coronas. They're so delicate and delicious.
Orion21 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I remember being pleasantly surprised by these when I first tried them back in '06. I didn't expect much but was blown away. Not creamy, but woody, peppery, earthy with touches of fruit, leather and tea. If these are on the money now, I might have to consider a box. For the price consider 2
tommggeorge Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Total surprise but I'm smoking a Bolivar No.3 tubos right now and it might just be up there with the best cigars I'v ever smoked! So good that I thought it worthy of my first post...
CdnLimitada Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Been powering through 2011 Connie 1s. Great size and flavor.
saintsmokealot Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Big Cohiba fan here however not much of the Siglo line other than vi. This year had some Siglo iv that blew me away.
Pedro2486 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Gotta say the Siglo VI gifted to me last Christmas. I hadn't smoked in a while and everything about that 2 and a half hours was perfect

mk05 Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Toss up between Monte Double Edmundo and Sir Winston Connie A. Very well made cigars.
garbandz Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Upmann Royal Robusto.........so good young,and for such a large ring cigar................. 1
Laxman Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Loving the La Flora Grandioso's. Cannot stop smoking them, such a refined tasty young smoke.
LeafLover Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 <p>HUHC. Its almost as if someone screwed up and just blended thus cigar with nothing but sweet secco. Strength is touch above mild. Although it is fatter than a petite corona, you can't smoke it too fast otherwise it burns hot. Very little complexity. But so what, the flavors keep you wanting yo take another puff and another. The length is juat enough to give you your fill of the flavor without going too long as to bore you. Its like 3.5 inches of the sweet spot of a regular cigar. I recently had an 08 Does Dieux (which was amazing) and a good Mag 46. This I would say would be a blend of those two. Blend the sweetness and creaminess of the Does Dieux minus the woodiness with the muskiness and flavor of the sweet spot of the Mag 46 and I get a HUHC./p>
LeafLover Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 Love the L&S's in my stash. LGC, Montecarlos, RG. Some are not long but definitely skinny. Enter Hoyo e Monterrey Du Gourmet. MUS Nov 12 to be exact. Exquisite smoke. At this age, already ubbelievable!! The flavors are incredible. Light wood infused with sugar cookie, caramel and vanila. Smoked the du Gourmet and was even more impressed than the last Des Dieux because it had the same DNA but at the age of the Gourmet, it was almost at the level of the Does Dieux. Medium strength, full flavor, great draw. Must keep from drawing too hard and too fast though which is hard because I keep wanting more and more. Lovers of this leaf must know what I'm speaking of. Oh man!!
DWC Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 P 8-9-8 V and CoCE were new to me this year. I didn't know what I was missing! Both are smoking great ROTT. I'll try to leave them alone to get some time on them. Wish me luck.
