BobLobLaw Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Many of you have probably already seen this on ICC, but a buddy and I were talking about our CoPi's and realized that there was a major difference in wrapper color between our boxes. We decided to split em so we each had 5 light and 5 dark and could sample both types. Kinda cool and it reminded me of the Monte box Prez opened awhile back that was half light and half dark. Anyway anyone have a preference between light/dark wrappers?
Guibou Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Anyway anyone have a preference between light/dark wrappers? Well for me, the light ones are smokable now. I had one yesterday. A bit less Chocolate taste than the dark ones. The dark ones seem to have more intensity, same ligada thus.
Ken Gargett Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 interesting and a little disturbing. mine all the darker shade. rob from canberra very kindly pulled one out when i was down last week and i thought it smoked superbly.
Guest rob Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Of the examples I have left (and of those that I have smoked) the shades vary between both extremes of the examples you have posted in the picture. The other difference I have noticed is the oil content variations in the wrappers. Some of my boxes are extremely oily.. and others look somewhat dry and leathery.
android Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Thanks for the post....share the box codes of the two variations you have as examples.
Padrino Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Those light wrappers bear a striking resemblance to the Cohiba piramide from the seleccion piramide box.....
BobLobLaw Posted July 10, 2009 Author Posted July 10, 2009 Both box codes POS NOV 06. Same source as well.
BobLobLaw Posted July 10, 2009 Author Posted July 10, 2009 Whoa! Not sure if its the lighting, but those look really dark! I gotta admit I am a sucker for dark wrappers appearance wise. Although most of the feedback I've received is that the light wrapper Cohibas are awesome.
android Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Would be interesting to swap the wrappers like on the Monti 2 experiment! I have five boxes all with very dark & oily wrappers.
