Popular Post RichG Posted June 16 Popular Post Share Posted June 16 Rio Seco from the FoH 21 Christmas sampler. Not my typical ring gauge, but excellent flavor and construction on this one. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those weren’t too well received when they came out, but I feel they developed nicely. Though, had my last one about two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post graham_uk Posted June 16 Popular Post Share Posted June 16 I love smoking DCs when given the chance. These days laptop is usually in hand, there is work to do, but it is so much nicer to have one of the great Cuban cigars of the world to help one's day along. It is a woody / creamy smoke with a lovely mouthfeel, beautifully balanced and a touch under medium bodied for the first half and becoming medium to medium full and right on full at the finale. Really perfect. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though, had my last one about two years ago. Frankly, I enjoyed it very much. As you stated, there were definitely mixed reactions to this cigar upon it’s release. Would have described it as overwhelming, unbalanced, linear, dull. The overall construction was always on point mind you. Exceptional draw and burn producing a thick abundant amount of smoke. After going through a box and a half of these over the years, I definitely noticed a significant improvement in the overall balance of the cigar. The strength is now subdued allowing for a smoother transition between flavours. Although lacking in complexity, it has evolved in a very enjoyable full bodied smoking experience. Hope this helps, my brother. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bill Hayes Posted June 17 Popular Post Share Posted June 17 Just finishing up my first Monte 5 as I type. What a great flavour profile and format for chilly late afternoon smoke. Paired with a double espresso and a nice pastry stout. Albeit, I've only had one but for me it's right up there with #2 for flavour, maybe better but different experience I know. Cheers. Loved it. Now can go and enjoy a nice Rhone red and a slow cook lamb stew for dinner. Bloody terrific. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
