El Presidente Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I was discussing this with a few members over the weekend. In your experience, The cigar/cigars that have been the most consistent over the past decade? 2005 to 2015. Box to box over the years, your cigar or cigars that have been most consistent in flavour profile. My three: Montecristo Especial Bolivar Petit Corona H. Upmann Magnum 46
glassbase Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Unfortunately my experience with this hobby does not give me the ability to answer this question.. But one day I hope to know. I've only purchased the same box once and it was Upmann No 2 with a JUN13 box and more recently a MAY14 box. It's going to take me a while before I can chime in on these discussions, cheers everyone. 1
tmac77 Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Upmann Conni #1 Monte especial #2 Bolivar royal corona
melies Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Cohiba SIglo III Monte 2 Trinidad everything hahaha just kidding Most consistent for me has been BPC and BCJ Cohiba Lanceros HU SW
UpInSmoak Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I'm going with PLPC. Heavy in my rotation and a staple
mk05 Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I'd rather say that the name of the game with Cuban cigars is actually inconsistency. If just pushing to the button and waiting for cigars to appear, you can bank on inconsistent box to box experiences from the following: Partagas D4 - the most consistent Robusto in its inconsistency Montecristo #2 - the most consistent Pyramide in its inconsistency Hoyo Petit Robusto - I can always count on these to taste like hot air! Oh I guess I could answer it differently. How about these three: RyJ - I can consistently count on any RyJ to disappoint Cohiba - consistently the most beautiful cigar regardless of substance Montecristo - because we are smoking an idea, at least that much is consistent

santela Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Cohiba SIglo III Monte 2 Trinidad everything hahaha just kidding Most consistent for me has been BPC and BCJ Cohiba Lanceros HU SW Didn't realize it's a joke until I saw Trinidad...
Homebrew Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Bolivar PC Partagas Shorts H.Upmann PC Dave (A.K.A. Homebrew)
RijkdeGooier Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Over the last decade for me would be from production years 00 - 10 Monte Esp 2 Partagas Lusitanias QdO Panatellas
Smallclub Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Bolivar pc and CG (but certainly not the BRC nor the BBF) Upmann Connoisseur No.1 Quai d'Orsay corona
CaptainQuintero Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 QDO corona Quintero Panetela Quintero Brevas Monte 3 PLPC Bolivar PC Dip 2 In positive terms at least, either the blends are very forgiving (I'd guess this applies to Quintero the most) or production is staying with same teams?
Bartolomeo Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 off the top of my head in my short smoking experience CCE JL#1 Quai Corona
reliefdvm Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Bolivar Royal Corona has been the most consistent for me. The Monty 2 one of the worst and best cigars depending on the box.
ogus Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 off the top of my head in my short smoking experience CCE JL#1 Quai Corona "short smoking experience" The sticky is called Bart's growing collection
ogus Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Most consistent is not necessarily most enjoyable for me one cigar only to choose from would be PSD4 or Montie 4 lastly Parti Short
topdiesel Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Luckily, most consistent is often most enjoyable for me: BPC BCJ Same excellent flavors that started me on this journey a decade ago.
mikemerry Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 PSD4. I don't think I have ever had an off one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
LLC Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 The two that come immediately to mind for mr are Bolivar Petit Corona Bolivar Simmones (ok not a decade as it is a 2007 Canadian RE)
mk05 Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 So from this Marc I surmise that the Hoyo Petit Robusto is the most consistent to your mind?
