Mike33 Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 » What would you say to the 1998 vintage? Yay or nay and why. Thank you. Only had one single and it was very good. Loads of creamy coffee bean and leather. Great construction as well. I have seen a wide range on prices for these....and imo, anything under $350 is a good buy.
broozer Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 » What would you say to the 1998 vintage? Yay or nay and why. Thank you. i smoked one from '98 back in may '04 the night before my wedding. it was hands down one of the best 5 cigars i've ever had in my life. BUY THEM. bruce
Mel Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Dear Sir I would stress that when buying aged cigars you must trust the storage history completely. They can be treasures or dung depending on how well the have been kept up. I have some 98 HDM Churchill that I bought from Czars and they are great. I do also have some less than stellar sticks that I have purchased from private collectors that are nearer the dung catagory. Good luck mate.
habanohal Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 I have smoked quite a bit of them.From 98 to 06. I want to like them, but for me,there is not enough flavor to really enjoy them. I love the HDM line, But anything bigger in gauge than the Eoic #2 doesnt float my boat. The La Hoya line to be the best of them all
FLitiGator Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 I've always liked these. They were my introduction to smoking habanos. Some guys think they aren't strong/bold enough and way too mild. I've always looked at them since as a tasty change of pace cigar. It will never have the in your face flavor of a Lusitania or a Bolivar CG, but it isn't supposed to. I also enjoy the Epicure #2 that's a robusto that's always in the regular rotation. I don't smoke many dc's because of the time issue as a father with young children and being self employed.
