GP012 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Ramon Allones Eminencia RE - 5.6 x 44 05 release, unknown box code Drink: HC7 neat. Cedar at cold, ok construction, medium draw. First third: More cedar, perhaps some toasted tobacco? Second third: Smooth, toasted cedar. Final third: More cedar and toasted tobacco. Seems to be the RA calling card from my experiences. Wrapper is unraveling and cracking near the end, burn running slightly, but easily corrected. Overall: 90. Smooth cedar throughout, wrapper issues plagued an otherwise stellar experience. One of my favorite RE's to date, and I wish I had more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wp2 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 When young, these had a lot of sweetness (toasted marshmallow?). Now they're in the cedar period I think & need more time to age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassman Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Until a few months ago, I thought these were far too tannic to enjoy. Now they are coming around nicely. Should get even better with more age. It will be interesting to compare them to the 07 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
