Ken Gargett Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 these were always one of my absolute favourite of the LE range and one of the great bargains at the time. had not had one for quite some time, at least 6 months. late night flick recently was the 'magnificent seven' (see following trivia quiz) which i had not seen for years so settled back with one of the hoyos and a glass or two of bourbon. the cigar was as good as ever, if not better. the construction is exemplary, giving a long, very slow, even burn with a good cone. the flavours have migrated a little. still some of that dark chocolate and expresso that was there when younger but more caramel and milk coffee now. subtle and complex. fabulous. 93 with a bullet. and the film was pretty good too.

I found earlier this year that mine had lost the very essence that I enjoyed (sweet coffee cream) and I traded them in for SLR DC's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSlick Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I think he's trying to say that Ken has a difficult time passin' banana seeds. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habanablue Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 nice review Ken yes, also caught the magnificent 7. So much cigar smoking in that movie it is quite an apt film to light up to! I have not tried many ELs but that Hoyo was great (and strong) when fresh. thanks for review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Gargett Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 nice!! insults are definitely the way to go. and for the prez to suggest... something about people in glass houses not getting dressed springs to mind. jimmy, i have a box that i sent off to deep storage but if i can organise to come your way in feb, i'll dig it out and bring some over. remind me. rob, given i know what you paid for those sticks in havana, a bit like swapping beads for manhattan or the lump of rock or whatever it was. still, as an old real estate agent, i'm sure there was full disclosure. the charming thing about all this is when i was away from the forum, there were no insults. rob nags/begs/pleads for me to return (i was only away because i was actually away) and then it is insults galore.
