Second box of Mag 54’s this month. I haven’t had a properly aged one yet but smoked one to test the waters out of the other box and liked it enough to stock up.

Same month/year as last one but diff factory. Also this quirky mark on back. I posted separately about it so if anyone else has seen a marking like this D62 let me know!

GEM JUN 21 with the old labels somehow!

Also: the Cuban confusion of conducting a conducive conclusion for spelling Connoisseur.

Beautiful box, looks like they used an older version.

The look, smell, feel etc is fantastic… I’m going to cut one open in a few weeks

LTO MAY 21 I believe, procured from our host.

I hope that means smoke one, and not dissect for inspection of long filler. 😄

I did this to an Epicure No 2 the other day that was totally unsmokeable. Wouldn’t even dream of doing it to the CoLa

LAT Mar 2019 Selección Petit Robustos, a multi-brand combination release containing two each of 50 ring gauge x 102 mm (or 4 inches) in length Petit Robustos across five marcas (Cohiba, H.Upmann, Montecristo, Partagas, Romeo y Julieta). It's something a bit different I know, but I decided to try (this out) because I've heard good things about these multi-brand offerings. Paradoxically, the regular production Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto is not included in this release.

Let us know how you like those. I've been eyeing a package like that myself.

Yes, I shall. I'll put up reviews in my 2021 Smoking Blog in a few weeks, no doubt! 👍

Number five is looking mighty oily. Time to get these some rest.

Now I need to decide if I keep working or build my possibilities spreadsheet.

@Nino nice grab!  Can I ask what the inverted monte piece is under the box in the 2nd pic?  Caught my eye as a matching background.

That is the red velvet bag/cover the boxes come in ...

Monte 1935 Leyenda is absolutely my favorite in the Monte Linea 1935 @Nino! I'm sure you'll like this CC although its RG is really thick (55 RG) 😃.

Wish that I have tons of Monte 1935 Leyenda in my CC collection 😂

Thanks for the post

How do you find the La Punta vis-a-vis the La Fuerza? La Fuerza is one of my favourite sticks and I've been so impressed. Not yet dipped into La Punta so would be interested to hear your view....

I’ve only ever had a box of the El Principe so can’t offer a comparison. La Fuerza seem to get a lot of love on the forum.
