kjellfrick Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Time to go where our fearless Presidente already has gone...the video review! Not so outrageously funny nor with such pithy commentary as in the Czar series but a fun exercise for the upcoming Oscars nevertheless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Bravo Kjell Interestingly, I smoked a Magnum 46 (SEP 05) earlier today myself. These have taken some time to come around, but now exhibit a great profile of toasted tobacco and coffee, with just a bit of fruit. Still with some darkness and pepper in the final third which leads me to believe they still have some maturing to do, but nonetheless, a great cigar with great construction. Thanks for the review!

Habanos2000 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Thanks for the review, Mag 46's have always been one of my stand by cigars and I have found them to be good to great at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. All in good fun, don't you know... I've been waiting for this cab to come around for a long time, and it just recently did. I suspect that your toasted tobacco is where I get the sweet woody flavours, but I'll be damned if I could sense any coffee in there. I had a very good Secretos earlier and THAT was full of roasted flavours; coffee and dark chocolate in abundance! Maybe I killed my sense of coffee??? Quite a challenge to do a review cold and my appreciation of the Czar crews efforts is much higher now. But then I didn't have any rum or wine to go with the cigar... That will be remedied next time!

El Presidente Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Well done Kjell! Most informative and entertaining I will take that as an application for a permanent Czar Deck position for 2009. We were looking for a fulltime female member of the panel (Cigargirl.....call me ), However after your photo's with the magnificent smoking jacket.......you are almost there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer to be there in person though, if only for a guest appearance! One day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkz Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Great review Kjell!! The Mag46 is a cigar that I feel that I have to aquire a box of very, very soon!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Gargett Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 provided you give the mag 46, at least 18 months (better two years), then they are teriffic. short of that, i find them bland and characterless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrody Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Bravo Kjell! That was informative and fun to watch. Now I don't feel so alone smoking in my garage like a hermit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 good job kjell! I've got a 2 cabs from end of 06 too. And feel just the same! except that mines came around good at 18 months already. But I didn't try any since then. Maybe I'll fire one this week. Anyway, this cigar has regain it's past glory in 2006, and that's great news.

jamesward Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I just had the '06 Magnum 46 and really liked it. Nicely constructed with a good draw. Pre-burn tastes for dried fruits and liquers. Subtle tabacco flavors from start to finish. Not coming at you too hard, but consistent and pleasant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrink Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Nice review, Kjell! For those of you who have stocks of aged Mag 46 (like me), let me strongly recommend that you NOT try or buy any of the 2008 vintage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolivr Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 great review Kjell, thanks. I think this clinches it, I have these on the shopping list now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those of you who have stocks of aged Mag 46 (like me), let me strongly recommend that you NOT try or buy any of the 2008 vintage. I've heard great things about 08'Mag 46's (I haven't tried any though). Any one else have any comments about recent production? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demiurgic Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Nice review, Kjell! For those of you who have stocks of aged Mag 46 (like me), let me strongly recommend that you NOT try or buy any of the 2008 vintage. Any reason for this besides the fact that your aged stock tastes better? Rob says the 08's are smoking great. Kudos for the review Kjell. You look like you're really enjoying the smoke. That's how!

gloryforixseal Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Polish TV has an irritating habit of getting all the good shows on inappropriate times, because the best parts of the TV programme is already taken by soap operas like "L for Love" or other reality show or "talent finding" programs where so-called celebrities can show off how dumb they are. It means: Magnum P.I. is on 12 AM on... workdays. So Yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
