have had 4 or 5 of the #1's ... they are 3 or 4 years old.
mild in the strength derartment but a cuban fer sure.other similar taste (to me)would have been the por larranaga monte carlos.a size i like and first class construction.
depends i suppose if you are a locamotive type of puffer or a...
greycliff cremas(petite corona)...these are the ONLY non habanos that i smoke regularly...maybe one every couple of months.they burn hot and fast and are only for those who know how to smoke a cigar slowly.they are tasty and rich in flavour tho.

not my size...so i only got a box of 10(ago'03)...cant see me visiting this box before '08.nice of you to suggest that i have something worth waiting for.good honest review ricmac and about what i expect for any 6 month old habano.

puffing through a cab of these...35 left and already its time to think about getting more.my favorite cigar...have 3 more cabs of different vintage years but so far these 98's are the best.(closely followed by '99)

i do like ryj's and was not overawed by the cazadores.they are a good smoke(i like the ryj floral taste)but i would not consider them a powerhouse but a 3 1/2 of 5.now the ryj tpc's i have are the strongest smokes i have...go figger.

never smoked a fuente(tho i do have an opus x in my humi).figgered i better say that.
fuente kind of reminds me of the episode of seinfeld with the "soup nazi".

a fellow worker gave me 4 "peso cigars" last night...he is new here after 3 years working in cuba.
they are the ugliest looking smokes i have EVER seen... the one i had was rough finish on the wrapper and it was bent(curved) ...but the smoke itself was suprising...a nice smooth(yet strong)...
i find most smoke shops way overhumidify there smokes...only one were i buy regularly and i just take my own to smoke and buy a few to take home.i can humidify my smokes better than any store.(63% to 66% but thats a personal thing)
i think that the humidifiers are set correctly its just the...

perhaps i misslead you ...i do open the boxes and look for evidence of bugs and get rid of the extra paper ,quadrilingual message etc. i dont smoke from a box for at least a year after i get em.
derrek :)
think in terms of years not weeks.
any smokes i get(regardless of box age)i put away for a year...after that i will seldom open the box before they are 2 or 3 years old.'abanos take patience and most of the complaints you hear are (i believe)due to youth.

my favorite smoke...bar none.go through about a cab a year of these wonderful little cigars.sounds like yours had a bit of age...they can be a bit overpowering and metalicky tasting when young...at about 5 years they are reborn,still power packed but smooth and tasty.
