FOH'ers Daily Smoke

UTE Oct 16 RyJ PC. Chaser to Blind Tasting cigar #3, only because I detected some fruitiness in it. As enjoyable as #3 was, this is so much better. ROTT 2 years ago these were pepper bombs. Wow, what a difference a few years makes. This is all about barnyard, cream, cherry, and Cuban twang. Glad I took the blind plunge when they made a PSP showing in 2017 .

Aloha Friday wherever you are!

Boring. At least it was constructed well.

Monte PE - April 17

A surprisingly warm, yet cloudy fall day in north central PA. Perfect weather for a hoodie and cigar. 
 

This dark PE is full of spice, graham cracker, white pepper and cocoa. I’m glad I still have about half a box left.

Montecristo Dumas UEB Mar 2018

In case you missed it, the new Linea 1935 addition to the Montecristo brand is aimed at emulating the addition of the Linea Behike to Cohiba in 2010. In other words, three cigars that are premium-priced and classy. They are a blend of the full flavour of a classic line Montecristo cigar with the medium-flavoured Open series. Some of you may say 'bland-flavoured' Open Series. I think in essence what Habanos S.A. is trying to say is that the Linea 1935 series consists of three cigars aimed at being 'full of flavour' rather than strength in terms of a nicotine.

The Dumas is named after the author of the classic novel, 'The Count of Monte Cristo', Alexandre Dumas. Incidentally, in case you are curious, the Maltes is named after one of the main character's aliases in the novel, the Maltese Sailor, after he is rescued by smugglers and Leyenda means 'legend' in Spanish. It's the smallest of the three cigars, around the same length as a Montecristo No.4, but 7/64th inches larger in diameter. It's a little stronger than the Leyenda, but that's to be expected for a smaller cigar. I found it consistently around medium.

My previous Dumas had a 'fullness of flavour' which coated my palate throughout, it was indeed a 'classy' smoke. This Dumas, smoked six months later, was nothing like that at all. It had plenty of flavour in the first few draws and smoke output per puff was intense, but it was just too strong, almost like the ligero leaf in this was blended incorrectly and gave off too much flavour, spice and strength. At other times, this Dumas went out and I had to consistently re-light. To compensate for the strong flavours at the beginning, I had to smoke slowly and with small puffs. At times the flavour was bland, at other times I got a little cocoa, biscuit, cream and marshmallow.

To say I was disappointed with this is an understatement. Still, I have a Maltes to try soon and I am hopeful that it at least it won't leave me as discontented as this Dumas did today.

I was not happy with the Dumas either.  My thoughts on it were pretty much in line with yours.  I bought 2 boxes, but i think I am going to eventually sell or trade the unopened box.

On the bright side, the Maltes is a very nice cigar.  I think the particular blend they used, is more suited to the larger ring gauges of the Maltes and Leyenda, which are more flavorful, yet more mellow at the same time.

Only got half the balcony boards done today; we’ll try to finish it off tomorrow.

I’ve had some outstanding cigars lately and this certainly was as well. MEL DIC 16 Sir Winnie from the most oily box of cigars I’ve ever had.
