Darco Posted May 7 Posted May 7 RASS cab of 50 from 2018. Gave it chance after chance but no there is no hope. 2018 wasn’t a good harvest.
unaslob Posted May 8 Posted May 8 My H. Upmann Mag 54’s 2020 just can’t find a place in my palate. Too subtle perhaps?? Just not for me. Oddly enough the Mag 46 I do enjoy as well as QD50’s, which are quite mild.
jfire Posted May 8 Posted May 8 Right now probably not one box. Nothing is really failing. Just finished a box of PL Montecarlos that were tent pegs from 2018. Last one was open draw and fantastic. Go figure…As for as BR, I bought a box of OR 2010 Behike 52 from you when you were still using the FoH auctions. I think I have 5 left but didn’t keep the outer box, just the black lacquer box. I just can’t seem to smoke them knowing the market value. I know…they’re only cigars. 1
Lamboinee Posted May 8 Posted May 8 I've got a 23 box of Partagas Aristocrats that I think are the absolute worst cigars I've ever tried. Harsh, combustion disaster, ugly dark mottled wrappers, funky smells, weird smoldering. I've smoked three so far...I don't think it's something that can be fixed with aging. They are so bad, I can't bring myself to trade or sell them to anyone. I seem to have run into about 3 boxes of PCs over the last year from 3 different marcas that had similar traits, but these aristocrats are the WORST. It's caused me to be leery of buying PCs. Hopefully it's an isolated incident.
griller Posted May 8 Posted May 8 I have a box of RA Superiores from 2020 that is just flat and the 4 I've smoked have all had crazy burn issues. Stored in a humidor where burn has been great with other boxes and even loose sticks. Hoping the last 6 will be better but not too optimistic.
LizardGizmo Posted May 8 Posted May 8 I've had pretty bad luck with BBFs going on three boxes now. I've also had a difficult time with Siglo IV, as so many are overfilled and impossible to draw.
Goldeneye Posted May 8 Posted May 8 I have a box of Monte 4 from 2021 that I have tried three from this spring, and they all have a terrible draw and have been totally underwhelming.
sv_ontour Posted May 8 Posted May 8 Probably the RA Celestiales Finos APAC RE’s. Tried them young and have never gone back to them. And the sleep deprived purchase of 2 bundles of JLPs from last time I went through Doha duty free.
treberty Posted May 8 Posted May 8 I'm actually thinking to put a partial box of 2015 QDO Coronas up for sale on BR. I have tried to enjoy them...🤷♂️ just not for me.
BG318 Posted May 10 Posted May 10 Probably my HdM Epi#2's. I went a little deep on them too. Real yawners Imo. 1
djrey Posted May 13 Posted May 13 Probably a box of 2013 Lusitanias. They are excellent cigars but I rarely have time to smoke one, so I get through maybe one a year. Knowing what they are worth it is sometimes tempting to off load them. But on the same token, I know I will never buy another box so that makes it hard to part with them.
RSG Posted May 13 Posted May 13 2018 QdO 50...1 or 2 out of 20 were pretty good (enjoy the 54s though, go figure). 2014-19 Ramon Allones Superiors...not a fan. 1
