Do you have any experienced cigar smokers in your area? If so, you might want to ask them to take a look.

Hi Wilkey,
Thanks for you advice.
Can you help me out???
I will send you this(RS 11), and a 00 HDM Epicure 1 (I suspect it is a little dry too) , and a 00 Punch DC (I think this one is in very good condition and a really great smoke).
I will mail it out later next week.
Thanks in advance.
BTW, I'm all for free cigars...but only if I can deliver something of value in exchange. In this case, I just don't have the time to help out AND I think diagnosis right there where you are is of greater importance.
I recently acquired a box of 2000 Punch RS No. 11.
I do not have much experience in aged cigars, so I cannot tell
if the cigars are ok or a little too dry?
What do you think?
How do they compare to your newer cigars?
What does age have to do with it.
if they smoke fast and hot...then they are likely to be too dry...no?

With my limited experience, I think I can pick up several distinct tastes on newer cigars.
But for this one, I can only pick up different waves of aroma. I can still "feel" the different flavors are encapsulated in each wave, but each individual flavor is not that distinct and sharp anymore. I do not mean it becomes less flavorful, but rather each wave of aroma is still very intense but remains harmonious.
And because the wave of taste keeps changing, the whole cigar experience becomes much more interesting.
For example, during the first 1/3, I feel it is very smooth and flavorful.
After second 1/3, it progresses gradually and becomes more intense without being pungent.
The last 1/3 is not good due to the burn issue.
I finished the smoke in about an hour. I don't think it is too hot.
I still think it is a little dry as two cigars have cracked wrapper at the foot,
but I am more than happy to keep them :laugh:
