El Presidente Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Didn't risk it and went a JUL P2. Brilliant in every way as expected. I could have pulled a vault cigar (New year) but I wanted something a little more 2021. Glad I did. Yours? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anacostiakat Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Went looking for something for Christmas and saw I had two 04 Esplendidos left. So I grabbed one. Nubbed it!!! Fantastic. Kinda sad only have one left. LOL Followed this up with an 08 Punch SS#1. Nice! At least I have a few more of these left. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a ATE FEB 2018 Sir Winston and I all but tossed it. First third was plugged so bad that the wrapper popped and split about a half inch down. After about 30 minutes of pulling my brains out it finally came around and started burning right. Last 2/3's was pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lfhard Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 My brother-in-law and I had a CoLa box codes unknown was bought as singles at the LCDH in Cancun last year. Father-in-law and cousin picked a Medina Luna (not much of cigar smokers). Good cigars after a nice dinner. The CoLa was amazing. Wish I knew the box codes on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicPac Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 I had a ‘15 RA Club Allones on Christmas Eve and a Monte 4 from the 1970’s on Christmas. The RACA was really rich and a wonderful smoke. Wish I had more. The Monte was pretty boring through the first third due to it being a bit tight. I hit it with my perfect draw tool and that woke it right up. The next 2/3 was really a treat. I smoked it till it burnt my fingers. Glad a have a more of those left. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wine_junkie Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 2020 Punch DC that was really showing…soo much more approachable than even 6 months ago…beautiful now and I’m sure even better moving forward… Also a RA Gigantes that wasn’t quite in the same league but damn good - add bourbon and we’re happy… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigaraholic Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 The best of my Christmas lineup was a Montecristo Grand Edmundo 2010...what a treat! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bords Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Johnny O EL Siglo 6 from 2018. I have a few bundles but wish I would have bought hundreds before the price jump. Probably my best cigar of the year, certainly aging like a Cohiba! Letting the rest go until 2023. Finished off the day with a HLP 60, wonderful leaf and construction but need years to settle down. I had to put it down at last third but I’m confident these will pay off down the road.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JohnS Posted December 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2021 Mid-2017 Montecristo A. It was every bit as good as the last one I had a little over two years ago! Simply put, it was a brilliant cigar that I wish I could smoke again right now! 😊 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevrknow Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 The Monte from the sampler. WOW! Hit me unlike any other Monte yet. Don't get me wrong, other Montes are good ( except for those few 5's which were confirmed not to great by another member ) but this one hit all of my check marks. Will be aiming for more. 😉 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BigGuns Posted December 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 27, 2021 I intended to have a Punch 898, but my good friend insisted I take one of his Fuente “Blues” (the “Believe”) - their 20th anniversary stick. I must say, it was a pretty incredible cigar. The 898 will be set ablaze shortly. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bill Hayes Posted December 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 27, 2021 Nubbed a fresh PSP JL#2 with a cherry stout. Superb. Later had a CORO that maybe needed a little more time for flavours to come together. Worked ok with a triple NEIPA with a fruity profile. Lovely. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be happy to wear them next flight to Cuba. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
