2 Boxes of MC Leyendas - one lighter coloured wrapper, the other darker.

Both have an amazing smell !

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 😂

A week old box of La Punta.

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.

Passed through dxb airport and the stock there is the lowest I’ve seen and I do travel regularly through the airport. I was able to purchase the last two hdm dc they had ( oily wrapper and amazing smell ) and a box of monte especial ( dull wrapper and the smell is not as good as the dc ) 

Can’t wait to try out the dc

Wow,  What happened here? were these somehow bought off the factory floor?   The sticker pack makes them look like "my brother knows a guy specials"  but they are obviously not

Ode to have the sweet hook ups

Nice! Hard to come by these days. It's the one minuto I'm running low on too.

You're on to something here... nothing like trusted friends to help facilitate these kinds of purchases.

Nice looking box of RASS from 24:24 Clearance. Thanks FOH!

[Rhinoww]

Perhaps my last round of the big dogs until things normalize again in hopefully a year or two. Otherwise this could be my first and last 50 cab of HdM DC. Fingers crossed boxes of 25 still show up from time to time. I’m not that old yet …

A while back I made a comment on a thread about how I have never tried a Fonseca and how I'd like to give one a try. Not long after, I received a very friendly and welcoming message from @Jimmy_jackoffering to send me some sticks to try. I very much appreciated the thought and generosity. That small gesture went a long way and he made himself a new friend.

Now, a few months, later I managed to score a box on 24:24 when everyone was fighting for... I think 50 cab of Lusis or some other gem.

Here it is, and oh my, the smell is incredible. To be honest, not sure if I should put on BR in a few years (2014 vintage it is) or smoke them up now. What do you think? Thanks again to Jimmy_Jack for being a top bloke as they say in Aussie land. 

 

Just had to pull the trigger on these Ramón Allones beauties - King of North Edición Regional Nordico-Baltico (long and fancy name...). Also got two singles to try so I didn't have to open the sealed boxes. Will post a review later. Initial thoughts, the size is great, and the smell is really strong and vibrant already. They probably need some time, possibly a year or more but can't wait to try this Rey del Norte (I think it sounds better like that)...

May I suggest you try a couple after resting a bit, then if they’re not to your liking put them up on BR as a partial box.

Some recent 24:24 acquisitions:

• Cohiba Robusto
• Monte 2
• Vegas Robainas Unicos
• Punch Short de Punch
• RyJ Short Churchill

All look like great quality. Super excited to dig in once they have some time to rest

[Boxer31]

couple from last week. knew the taste test was going to be difficult (almost impossible unless I get lucky) but been changing mind every time I look and smell them.  figure I will be even more confused when I light them up!!!

 

[Greenhorn2]

Some choix supreme showed up today.

[GVan]

Last delivery - 2 boxes of Boli CJ's, both TUA MAR-21's.  I really like the one on the left with the rosado wrappers but the one on the right says pure Guinness ..... I'll know sometime in 2026 !  Gone deep on these with one box almost gone (an outstanding MSU JUL-19) and 12 boxes resting.

[OrangePaw]

Mail call today.

Beautiful sight (wrapper slightly darker than pic), Beautiful aroma.  Muchas Garcias FOH.
