Guibou Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 By the way, I had the opportunity to have one Armonia cigar, that I did not smoke the night of the evening party. I've tried it yesterday afternoon after a Champagne Brunch ... To make it short, it is a salomones I so 57x184, like Cuaba Salomones. Construction is perfect, this vitola is really impressive in term of Size. Smell is great and I am expecting a great time, although I cannot get ride of my fear to have the Cuaba taste that I do not like... Well, it is definitely better than the Cuaba, no comparison. It taste the Bolivar Liga, definitely, but rather medium-bodied. For sure it is way too young, but really good for a cigar that was boxed 2-3 weeks ago... I would buy some for sure, but I would not touch them for a while. Don't ask me for the price, I have no idea how much it will be. Luckily it won't be the price they auctioned them during that evening (us$15k for the box....)... but it was for charity so it's ok... Last but not least, food was terrible, wine was awful, cigars were ok (special mention to the Cohiba Corona especial that was excellent), Ron HC7 and Mojitos was good, fun was GREAT!!!! at least at our table , the one in the back of the room ...

zuma Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 » For sure it is way too young, but really good for a cigar that was boxed 2-3 weeks ago... I hope their sort of youth is not such as to make them Bolivar Ammonia instead of Armonia... ;-) BTW, those girls look like 12 year olds...
Tampa1257 Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 Nice looking cigar, think what about 10 years will do for the taste? In 10 years, those girls might be old enough to be out of diapers too!;-)

Yikes! I'm sure glad the 12 year olds around here don't look like that! The girls in the first couple of photos are stunning! :-D

SmokinAl Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 » GROUP BUY !!!! I want one single any one can help? What the hell. I'm in Jimmy.
Jimmy2 Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Well thats 2 of us maybe someone has a connection that can help us out.Lets see who chimes in..
SmokinAl Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 If anyone is interested, the memoirs of Simon Bolivar can be found at http://books.google.com.au/books?id=EbBrTv...t#PRA1-PA291,M1 There's a reference on page 291 to the Dutch ship Armonia. Do you guys think this is where the name came from? Or is it a Cuban typo of Ammonia? Will we ever know? Do we really care? Why am I wasting my time with this instead of doing some honest work?

They really like 8. I know it very well. Japanese also likes 8 but not so much as they do.
Guest rob Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Group buy.... I'm definitely in! If there are not many takers I am happy to take two!
strayvector Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Wow! $1300 per box? Around $162/cigar...I think I'll pass on this RE.
