MontrealRon Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Two cigars, from two boxes received this week. First, with a poorly stamped code, apparently '13s, sourced in Canada. Havana House seals, not grey market. Bad construction, raunchy rough filler, asbestos wrapper. Utterly disgusting, surely wins the worst of the year award. Second, Dec. '11, sourced from the czar, received and smoked today. ( I strictly follow a 3 hour rest period.) Lovely smooth colorado wrapper, perfect construction, and an amazing virtually hypnotic aroma and flavour, totally delightful. In the running for best of the year! What more can I say?

Rye Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 With Majestics, you can get both in the same box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubleuhb Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Care to share the box codes ? I'm still smoking '11's but need to get more soon. Might just avoid the ones you mentioned first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk05 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Smoked some '88s and while they can have a metallic finish, rich tobacco and lingering Magnum profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sengjc Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I bought some loose stick 10-pack from a well known cigar bar-lounge-club here in Melbourne about 4 years ago. As I recall, they were very appealing at the start, then turned feral for about 9 months, then switched back on. It could have been a humidity problem due to change of seasons.
