bassman Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 Don't feel like a full review, but just smoked my first 08 Lusi. Wow! What a cigar! Strong & peppery as a Lusi should be. Best post 95 one I've had.
Tampa1257 Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 That sounds wonderful, the last Lusi's I've smoked were 01's and while very good, lacked some of the sweet peppery spice I remember older Lusi's having.
Jimmy2 Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 Posted a while back saying how good the 08's are dark and oily best I had since I last tired a 97.Rob also agreed the best since pre 97's and the blend is close to it.
shrink Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 Well, this is good news. I got an '08 cab a few months ago, but haven't broken into 'em yet. This sounds like as good an excuse as any.

Congrats! Lusi really fantastic cigar! Lusi ask minimum term of aging 5 years. After this term cigar still superb & wellbalanced not too strong and very aromatic

I picked up a couple of 10ct. boxes per Jimmy's recommendation and I must say that they r stellar!
anacostiakat Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 I am just finishing up my '97s. Honestly I have not been buying this vitola even though it used to be my favorite. I do remember Jimmy saying they were really good. I'll have to check them out. Thanks.
smokem Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Guess I'm going against the tide. The couple I've had from MAS JUN08 were okay, but nothing special.
neal875 Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 Guess I'm going against the tide. The couple I've had from MAS JUN08 were okay, but nothing special. I must say that I agree with you about the flavor of this batch. In addition, construction was off as the first one I chose was very, VERY tight. Time may cure the first problem but I don't think it will help the latter. We'll see.
Jimmy2 Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 They are GREAT now and will be very good with age down the road I think you gents got some bum boxes. Get them in the 10ct boxes better over all!
habone Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 I got a 10ct box and they are juuuuuust gooooooooorgeous!! thanks J2 for the recommendation!
bassman Posted July 26, 2009 Author Posted July 26, 2009 Agreed- mine was a box of 10. Nice rounds cigars, lovely flavor, strength & draw. Code is GOP JUN 08.
