El Pres mentioned in a 24:24 prior to Easter that there'll be plenty of boxes, available for all, together with the LCDH Hoyo de Monterrey Elegantes. That 24:24 listing had minimal initial quantities of the Montecristo Dantes LE and Hoyo de Monterrey Elegantes, so it was reassuring for El Pres to let us all know about future supply of this stock.

She alone is worth the price of the trip.  Now what should I give up; 24:24 or eating?

What was the overall impression of the Dantes at the tasting? 

[Versus1ss]

Yeah I'm waiting for impressions as well especially since I bought 2 boxes not wanting to miss out

Mix of reaction from very good to so so. Normal mix of reaction 

Anything "fresh off the boat" will be hit and miss without time to acclimatize. From the Cohiba Robusto Supremo to the Monte Sublimes/520 our first week tastings have seen a mix of reaction. 

There is a great review in the store from the first 2003 Siglo VI tasting.  "Overpriced, flavourless, fail ".   I love that review 

The vid review from ken and I will be up next week on the Dante.

Thanks Rob, I look forward to trying the box I was able to get on Mondays 24. From your description here and on 24, it sounds like time will be the ultimate determining factor, as true with most Cuban cigars.
