Smoked it to my knuckle and was still wanting more. So it was fantastic. maybe 30 days in the humidor. I would consider these a lighter wrapper than the MC#4 i have been smoking from 2108 so i really got the Cocoa, Cream, Coffee and nuts on the start. The construction was excellent as well. its a serious box code and on the radar now. I look forward to the next one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good. Not wood bombs like some of the older sets, I gather? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but I am picking up a kind of pecan shell taste if that makes sense. Toasted tobacco and a slightly floral aroma. Very subtle light bodied smoke but lots of it.

I’m loving the light wrapper HQ ‘18 monte 4’s I’ve been smoking through so that’s why I jumped on these. I’m pumped! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flavors are so intense and mellow at the same time. I have a box of Du Prince ‘16, I haven’t touched, are they the same? I love SJ as well! I was wondering the same thing myself so I ended up getting a box of du depute to find out for myself. These and the DuP start out pretty similar but as you get into them I think the DuD stays sweeter, and less woody, for me at least. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time for a favorite from my first FOH box. My gateway drug as it were. BOLI PC HQ. From April or May of 19 I think. Young yes.

Plus got a 24:24 quarter box in September that might be the same. Haven't lit one yet, but will soon ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dynamo320 Posted December 21, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2019 Tragic night of 1st world problems in my cigar world tonight. I’m out of the cold and am in warm Aruba for the night for my work. One night to sit out in the warmth and humidity and enjoy a great passion. Packed a Siglo VI and picked up a Sir Winnie at the LCDH to take home. The VI was completely plugged but stuck with it for a while. Poked it to death but nothing. Not good, last one from the pack I smoked was amongst the best I’ve ever had. In irrational judgement I cut the Sir Winnie, plugged exactly the same. Accidentally completely ruined it trying to open it up in low light with the Perfecdraw. You gotta be kidding me. Spent a fortune on it. Brought a backup D4, saved the night but damn, what a fail! I guess it’s the time of year to reflect that things could be much worse and be thankful for that a run of the mill D4 that saved the night.
