Popular Post Hotboxx Posted October 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2020 Time to check out this box. Had it a couple years I’m sure I have never looked inside, until 15 minutes ago LGR JAN 2018. Extremely mild. Omg my wife hasn’t smoked a cigar in a while, im gonna pick a day during the holidays this year, she will smoke one of these down to a nub like a boss. Much to my friends amazement cuz she’s a little stuffy. She’s retrohales clouds of smoke like it’s the most natural thing in the world and she’s never smoked a cigarette in her life. Lolololol 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted October 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2020 Por Larrañaga Petit Coronas LGR Oct 2019 It's often said on our forum that young Por Larranaga Petit Coronas (i.e. less than 5 years old) can have some bite to it, this 12 month old example had very little of the sort. Instead, it was a superlative example of how good recent 2019-20 Habanos cigars have been smoking so well and yet so young. From the very first puff I got some beautiful caramel and this was soon joined by toffee and honey until the middle third when the cigar exhibited a quality toasted tobacco into its flavour profile. It goes without saying that I risked the safety of my fingers in nubbing this well into the final third. When a Por Larranaga Petit Coronas can smoke this well at this age, it doesn't necessarily require long-term aging to enjoy to an exemplary standard. Montecristo No.4 UEB Ago 2018 My last Montecristo No.4 was from my UEB May 2018 box and was excellent; this UEB Ago 2018 example was even better. Again, from the very first puff it had a dominant citrus twang together with nut profile. The quintessential Montecristo cocoa and milk coffee was there too, only it was very much secondary to those aforementioned flavours. In general, both my UEB May and August 2018 boxes have been superb. I'm glad I have another UEB March 2018 unopened box to smoke through down-the-track. 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I snagged half a cab of PLPC on 24:24 a couple months ago, my first from this marca. I smoked one a few weeks after arrival, with some trepidation based on the folklore you note. It was fantastic -- caramel, toffee, toast, and a floral element, not a rough edge on it, better than the (very good) corona especiale I just smoked -- and I've since put down 6 more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For my preferences, it's not something I worried about when I picked up this PLPC as a quarter pack option from a 24:24 listing earlier this year. I think I've been through four of the twelve and overall they've been quite good thus far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
