2025 Cigar Hold'em....what are you holding, what are you throwing?

[El Presidente]

Cigar Hold-em 

 

From what you actually hold in your humidor 

Hypothetical. 

You have the opportunity to throw out up to three boxes/cigars to be replaced at random (but at the same price point today)  from the cigar gambling God.

 

1. What are the two to three boxes/cigars you are throwing out. 

 

2 Conceptually, what are the Ace pair (or three) cigars in your humidor FROM YOUR CURRENT ROTATION  that you would not throw out? 

 

*****5 cigars in play only

Throwing Out: 

1. H. Upmann Noella LCDH Jar.  I have a jar that is producing 100% plugged cigars. That is hard consistency to achieve. 

2. 2014 Saint Luis Rey Regio.  Now I love the Regio but this box was bad when I bought it and it is still bad today. 14 remaining. 

 

 

Holding

1. CORO

2. D4 

3. Mag 46

Throwing out: 

Bolivar PC - not a size I like and the flavour has been distinctly linear from the ones in this box.

Diplomaticos No 2- I've smoked 18 of this box and they've been absolutely delightful. The last few though have been stronger than a kick from a heavy bodied NC and the flavour has been sorely lacking (they're now at the 6 year mark). I'm wondering if they're undergoing second fermentation but if anything were to get the hammer at this point in time its these. 

Holding: 

VR Unicos

Partagas E2

H Upmann Mag 50/ HDM Rio de Seco (cheating I know but both are very very good right now) 

[zacca]

Throw away:

Hoyo Petit Robusto - tastes like a mouthful of cedar closet

PSD6 - a few have been total wind tunnels and the others taste like cigarettes 

 

Holding:

Party Shorts

Media Luna

Bolivar LE 2014
