I smoked one of these the other day. I’m guessing they need some age? I wasn’t particularly impressed.

Give them at least 30 days in your humidor to acclimate, after shipping. It really does make a difference in taste, IMO. I try to wait at least 30 days with all my purchases before smoking. Others will put a flame to them right when they arrive. What humidity are you keeping your humidor .?

Thanks for that! I’m glad to hear it. I was told to keep humidor at 60% 70deg. That accurate?

Three ten year old boxes of Montecristo No. 2, from a online retailer in Switzerland. A lot of extra stickers covering up the old label, i managed to peel one off and got the following code IT 095204. Smoked one ROTT, not bad but really too moist to tell. What do you guys think ?

Lol, I know who does that. Awesome vendor too btw... but I had to very carefully peel their label off the Habanos.SA serial code....

Managed to dry some out Thursday and Friday, when they cam in they were way too moist, had one every day since, spot on perfect !

Is it bad that I’m almost more excited about a box of ~4yo brevas than a 5er of vigias? ???

[encephalization]

Picked up a sampler of supposedly "secondaries" of a range of things yesterday. First time doing this, they do look really good. Will probably smoke something small from it today just to see how construction is.

I NEVER smoke a cigar ROTT. I’m very particular about resting new boxes for 30-90 days. Today, I broke my own rule. These RA Superiores were incredible ... I couldn’t resist. I just finished one, and I don’t regret it in the slightest. It was beautiful ... proof that a young CC smoked ROTT can be a wonderful smoke.

These just arrived, a box of 50

In the early aughts (the ‘cloak and dagger’ days of online ordering) I couldn’t afford boxes of all the great sticks i loved, so I’d buy ‘el dentes’ singles. Brevas, however, I’d buy by the bundle. I smoked em all the time with no complaints. 

This is the first time I’ve bought em since getting back into cigars last year... with a much higher budget, lol. 

Brings back good memories. They’re still a great value-for-dollar smoke. No shame!

 I still love those vigias though ?

Recent hauls from 24:24.  Can't go wrong here

[SigmundChurchill]

These 5 boxes just came today.  4 from our host, and I’m not really sure where the 5th one came from.  Somewhere in Switzerland.  I dont remember ordering them, and I dont see any credit card charge for them.
