Nice.
I see these posted a lot so they must be pretty good.
Have one, but haven't tried it yet

2021 Bolivar RC.. this one was a bit stronger-bodied with leather and earthy flavours. Cocoa still there but not as sweet as its other box-mates so far. Nice nonetheless.

MSU FEB 18 BRC.
So damn good! This box has been outstanding.

Birthday BRC MSU ABR 19, and caught some nice sized pickerel (not pictured 😀)...

Connie A BRE JUL 19

Monte 3 ATP AGO 19

Reyes RAG MAY 19... Not bashing these good cigars, but they are so similar to an Illusione Epernay Le Petit, size- and flavor-wise, that it's hard to justify what is now a 2X price differential...

Davidoff 2000 Signature blah blah... I will bash these. Never had a Davidoff so figured I'd try a few. Not awful, but not worth the $ whatsoever.

Espinosa Laranja, a typically good, inexpensive Lancero.

Dip 2 from a FOH prize pack early this year.  Glad to have a sixer on the way.

Trini C 2020 … Celebrating our 19th Wedding Anniversary today. Carne Asada & Shrimp skewers on the grill. The spicy Margarita is a nice pairing for this smoke…

Last night's PLMC (2016) from our gracious host.

Really like the PLMC's.

Tasty smokes with a slightly different flavor profile than the PC's.

Unfortunately tight rolls seem common, like most small rg cigars, but no longer an issue now that I possess a Perfecdraw.

Works wonders on tight draws.

A few months ago I bought 2 singles of multiple different Davidoff's to try and wasn't really impressed by any of them, especially for the price.

Do enjoy the Zino lines though, especially the Platinum Scepter series and the Platinum Z-Class 550R Robustos.

Totally different profiles than the regular Davidoff's and a little cheaper on average.

Highly recommend trying either of the two mentioned.

18 HU #2 - I think only the SWs beat these for my favorite HUs (to date anyway). Cookies, cream, white pepper and a unique funk that I really only find in the #2s. However many more boxes I have of these, aren't enough.

Hope everyone is having a fun and safe Labor Day and enjoying some spectacular cigars!

Nah, working.  It's good since they are paying double time and a half. Maybe that way I can still afford a box or two of stogies. Lol

Cohiba Siglo V

Extremely tasty, just like my staple Cohiba, the Siglo II, but with a significantly longer smoke time which is nice.

Perfect burn and construction.

Draw was a little tight even after using my PerfecDraw on it, but not too bad.



Tatuaje Series P Habano Robusto

Very tasty

Perfect draw, burn and construction

Another winner from tatuaje.

Haven't had one yet i didn't enjoy a lot

Bolivar Belicosos Finos

An all time favorite

Extremely tasty and perfect draw,burn and construction

Always a consistent, great smoke

Pre dinner M4

Another one of these excellent RUS / OMS (one or the other) JUL 15 batch of D4s. Great construction, draw and burn. Age has mellowed the spicy kick, but after the gentle first half, it’s still there in a pleasantly modulated guise. Only mid bodied now. A very good ‘staple’ cigar this, not grand or fine but playing its part to perfection.

I’m so impressed by the way Partagas keeps the core marca characteristics, but flexes them across the different votolas. From the punchy Short, through the fun and not too serious P2 to the all time classic Lusi. I particularly like the D4 / E2 contrast. One more savoury, spicy and rustic, the other more silky sweet and refined.

Montecristo Media Corona EGT NOV 20. Getting over the flu and sinus is shot. Couldn’t help myself though, it’s 100F 

[triphitter]

It’s getting dark to early again. Young La Fuerza is/was a good nightcap.

@Lrabold89 thanks. On the mend. I couldn’t wait any longer to have a cigar. I actually switched to nicotine pouches for a few days just to have some enjoyment. I didn’t need them but I said screw it. I started to feel better after I saw your legs in the precious post.

I'm a sucker for any Montecristo, but especially enjoy the no.3's, no.4's and especially no.2's.

Have a box of no.4's lined up for my next order at the end of the month.

Great smokes

Excellent little review.

Was a pleasure to read just for the writing style alone.

That said, the PSD4 is a staple go-to in my collection, albeit recent production ones, which are certainly plenty enjoyable.

Only had like 2 pre-2019 ones I believe, cant recall the date of one, but 1 was a 2016 and was certainly very tasty and different than recent production ones.

Really enjoy these, but have only bought as singles so far so they were a little pricey for the size that way.

Perfectly reasonable price by the box though. Have one in my bookmarks to pick up one of these days, probably in the winter once I'm getting low on the other smaller smokes I'm already starting to order starting in November
