Popular Post Monocle Posted July 1, 2020 Popular Post Posted July 1, 2020 I’ve swiftly moved away from NCs since discovering the joy of FOH but this was a strikingly good smoke. Perfect construction, enjoyable blend, plentiful smoke. It has been awhile since I’ve had a Davidoff but looks like it needs to be added back in into the rotation. 19

Popular Post sw15825 Posted July 1, 2020 Popular Post Posted July 1, 2020 Juan López Selección 1. My last stick from a cab dated 2013. I know the number 2 gets more love, but I actually like this one better. Not too bad when fresh but even better with some years on it. 23

Popular Post JohnS Posted July 1, 2020 Popular Post Posted July 1, 2020 Juan López Selección No.2 (circa 2016) The Juan Lopez Seleccion No.2 has enjoyed a revival on our forum in the past few years. I've tried a number over the years and I consistently find them more desirable with age on them. When young, I tend to find that they dominate in toasted tobacco and coffee notes; as they age, the orange citrus and chocolate notes within the cigar tend to come to the fore. This JLS2, from circa 2016, was generously gifted to me by @Luca (thank you). It had that typical Juan Lopez toasted tobacco and espresso coffee core, but it was a lot milder than a youthful JLS2 and the orange citrus really shone in this cigar, which made it memorable for me. Surprisingly, I didn't really register chocolate with this cigar this time round. I'm still aging my Juan Lopez Seleccion No.2 box from December 2016. I have two-thirds of the box left and I aim to smoke my next one in a few months time, just to see how they are coming along. 28

I find JL2's to be a very generous, and flavourful, but ultimately quite a simple cigar. Full of that choc-orange character, but (for me at least) it strums that chord over and over, with little variation. The JL1 possesses everything a JL2 has, but also brings in cream, and tannic woods. and more strength. It's got a bit of dirty funk to it as well, and challenging. Where as I would classify the JL2 to be a dessert cigar, the JL1 is a bit more of an experience, and can sometimes knock you on your back with nicotine hit. They are smoking excellently, I really enjoy them as an after dinner smoke. 7 3

Popular Post torsion Posted July 1, 2020 Popular Post Posted July 1, 2020 Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo du Gourmet. MUS MAY 13. Saw a few post with these today and jogged my memory that I should also smoke one. Given out more than I've smoked, in fact thinking I haven't even actually gotten round to smoking any until tonight!? Woody, creamy, sweet cigar. I love this elegant vitola, kind of forced me to slow down the pace. Cheers, Happy Hump Day Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk 29
