It is a true roller costed cigar, many different profiles from the same box I'm glad I don't feel too sad about thinking these cigars just alluded me with their magic, I had a real burnt animal tasting box, that mostly got dished out to friends in the end. I cant help thinking they were sort of trying to make the RACA, but went a bit OTT? Were your"s a bit of heavy? with charcoal/roasted meats? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it eases my pain of giving mine to my friends, I would or preferred for yours to be stellar cigar my fellow FOH. I'm hoping the Party Privada are going to fill this gap. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had the Connecticut wrapped one shown here, but I thought they weren't bad (aside from the horrible packaging ) Well, it's a gas station, so they haven't the maduro. It's just the better of the available choices. And yes, the giant prescription sheet they wrap it in is quite gaudy... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a 2012 Monte 4 gets you- yes, you are in big trouble. Nothing against Monte 4s, mind you, but there's plenty to be had in the blows-a-Monte-4-a-mile-out-of-the-water category.

CrankYanker Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Had this guy tonight which was brought to me from friends up north. Tasty Monte. Nothing like drinking some craft brew with a Habano in hand working on the car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGC Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Smoking with my father-in-law. He's on the Juan Lopez Corona and I'm on the Sig III. That's great you enjoy hanging with your inlaws enough to smoke. I gave my FIL a 1998 ERDM Lunch Club, and he snubbed it out after half. After urging from my wife, I tried twice with her brother. A 1998 Monte 5 and 2002 Partagas Corona barely got smoked. I learned my lesson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
