06 SLR DC\'s

[xibbumbero]

Anybody tried one? I'm curious how they are and what the aging potential is on this crop of SLR DC's. X:hungry:

Still young tasting but do they have some great flavor.

They are stronger than my 05's and these just have not come around yet.

I am starting to think the 06's are better...

[stever]

Had some from two different '06 box codes. They were very good, I think better than the late '05s I've tried. The '06s appear to be richer and have more depth of flavor.

I have only smoked one of my SEP05s and I thought it was a truely delicious cigar given its' age.

Now I am gonna be thinking of another cab from 06.

I would be really interested if somebody could do a comparison with the legendary 01s...

Oh, the question is absolutely honestly intended. PM on it's way.

I've been smoking 02s & 04s. I seem to be in the minority, but I prefer the 04s. They seem a bit spicier & all have had perfect draws, while some of my 02s have been rather tight. I also picked up some 06s (Thanks Rob & Lisa!), but won't touch them for a while.

i'm glad someone posed the question. i have 5 sitting in my humidor, just waiting for the weather to get a bit warmer, it's not fun sitting on my patio in sub freezing temps by the looks of it for a couple hours.

Dave I've smoked thru almost 2 cabs of the 01 SLR DCs. This is truely a classic.

Had the opportunity to smoke a 04 SLR DC and I would say that although you can tell they are from the same family the 04 is like a distant cousin. It was milder and less flavorfull.

The 04 is a good cigar but it is not in the same league as the 01.

If anyone has a couple 01's they would be willing to trade for some 06's, I would love to try a couple 01's... maybe 2 for 3 or something like that :-D

[josie67]

I just had one yesterday from 12/05, and while it wasn't bad, it was a little bland and tiresome.

From what I hear,you better make it 5 for one and then you may get lucky. However,I doubt it. X:-|

Ok, lets not turn this into Fuente Opux X cigars... If someone really is that greedy, then I'm not interested.

It's not that they're greedy. The 01 SLR DC is a classic smoke and it's no longer available. I know cause I've scoured the earth w/o any luck. The people that have them cherish them and are reluctant to let any go. X:cool:

2001's are a classic. 2006 are the best since then but at this point I need another 6 months to allow them to settle down. Fuller than the 01's. Nowhere near the complexity at this time....however if the stars align as I think they will in 6-12 months...you will have another classic.
