A fresh box with a promising smell, BRM JUL 25 

Edit: Thank you @JohnS for rotating the picture, I can't seem to figure out how that d*mn thing works 😅

Almost 80% of the boxes I've purchased in the last couple of years are from La Corona or the Partagas factory and it's just me picking up the nice boxes that show up here 🤔

I had written one up a few months ago on the 2025 Smoking Blog, but I've since had a chance to re-visit the box this week. If I were to tell you that it still had a beautiful balance of cedar, leather, a hint of sour cream, some Cuban twang and clove, with a strength that defies its age because its almost ten years old and the cigars are hovering around the medium mark, you may not believe me, but there you go. I am quite content that this box has 'legs' for quite some time yet!

For those who may find it interesting, upon further inspection of the box I can say it entered the French territory before May 24, which means the Coprova does have some stock of "regular" CCs and chooses not to provide anything besides premiums.

Not cool Coprova, not cool...

I find it interesting, how can you say that?

The labelling and packaging don't comply with the European Commission traceability requirements that came into effect in May 2024. 

That box couldn't have entered the French soil after that without applying KPL2F codes and an additional seal 👍

L’étiquetage et l’emballage ne sont pas conformes aux exigences de traçabilité de la Commission européenne entrées en vigueur en mai 2024. 

Cette boîte n'aurait pas pu entrer sur le sol français après cela sans l'application des codes KPL2F et d'un scellé supplémentaire 👍

Oui je comprend 

merci du retour 

je n’achète plus rien en civette française, c’est devenu n’importe quoi avec Coprova.

Nice to get a box of these with a '23 box code, cheers FoH. Couple of years head start is always a treat when you plan to let them sleep.

The deep dive on these steered me away from grabbing some. What’s your opinion on them if you’ve had any?
