Guy at work brought a few packs of Monte clubs back from Greece and gave me one. They're pretty good.


I've always been curious about these. Glad to hear their decent.

They're tiny, and simple flavor, but in the Montecristo flavor profile. Not bad. If I were to smoke while driving, I'd buy em for that.

Yeah, I've been thinking they would be perfect for an afternoon smoke break at work.

as Burnem2 said, he will email box code list of current inventory. I had a shipment seized several years ago, got the Letter, got the replacement shipment right away.


I know. As I said, I have done bidness with him many times... just took a hiatus.

Still have an occasional shipment go "missing" but it seems to be rare these days. Policy seems to be at the whim of Customs kinda like the IRS.

Hearing less and less about this topic. Hopefully, no more repeat of December 2014. May have been 2013.

PL Picadores from 2015 last night. Not my favorite from this marca. Got two boxes I think I should put down for a long nap and revisit in a couple years.

Hey, a lot of the '14 &'15 have been great young and really not much need to age. The Picadores are just too strong for PL and I am betting down time turns them around.

That's your 1st post? Introduce yourself. Sounds like you have decent taste in cigars at least.

Had a 2010 PSD4 and a PL Encantos this weekend.

I've not been terribly impressed with '10 (nor 11) PSD4's, but I will say that this one is finally approaching 'pretty good' status. I'm getting too old to start buying cigars that are going to take six or more years to get there......Encantos was much better than previously, also...fortunately, these are only about 5 years old :)
I'm going to concentrate more on buying more cigars that are already aged.....or I'm confident that I like on the fresher side

I guess I need to start buying more

For a long time, the '04 Edicion Limitada was the only RyJ that I had ever enjoyed. '13-'15 Churchills and Ex#4 are in my regular rotation now and I have to make myself NOT choose a Churchill whenever I get that much time.

In India right now. Picked up a pack of Siglo II's and a pack of Serie D no 4 in Dubai. They've been phemoninal. Planning on picking up a few boxes of cigars on the way home. I noticed that a box of Cohiba lanceros were $100 cheaper at the duty free than online.

Been a recent price hike, might not have made it to every B&M out there yet. Buy them up while you can.

last night, Punch Petit Coronations (tubo).

No idea why as I've never had one before, but it was one of the sweetest, tastiest smokes I've had in a long time.
