Sandman

Pretty surprised that Key West hasn’t been mentioned. Doesn’t get a whole lot more cigar friendly than that.

I’ve seen that too, but definitely not a flying pig. I’ll try and post a photo of one later.

An Upmann Butifarra.

That’s an Upmann Butifarra he’s smoking.

Keep him away from the booze and everything will be fine.

Early boxes were good, and I mean early. Pre-released were incredible. The rest really sucked to me. It seemed they made an endless supply. They were sold forever, and I truly believe these were and are still overhyped. Then again, I could say this about so many of the LE’s over the years.

In my experience these are great fresh, then expire quickly. I finally gave up buying these after the third box, and that was 2015 or 2016, can’t remember. But they are great fresh.

I’ve smoked quite a few of the La verdad by Papos. Your review is spot on. Very nice review!

2. Always lighter wrappers on Epi #2 for me

I've smoked a ton of these this year, and i'm not a huge Monte fan. Great when fresher, but its sleepy time for them now. Smoked one about 2 weeks ago, and that will be the last for quite some time. Its a great, rich, full flavored classy cigar, but at least to me, they need rest.

From what I have heard, light in body, one dimensional, and empty. The pre-release however is a different story...

Couldn't agree more Jose! Fantastic smokes!

Very interesting, makes for quite interesting reading. Thanks Prez.

They look absolutely gorgeous!!!
