Monte “2010” EL. The quotes are because these are not from 2010, these are a new blend rolled at the Upmann factory, but with the old bands. Fucking Cuba huh.

Castro Bros Frederick Towne.

Think I'm getting the hang of cigars.

Oliva Master Blends 3 Robusto

 

[AJL67]

Punch Mantua Italian regional release, released literally at the height of COVID in Italy … oops. When my box from our group buy arrived from Italy i put the UPS box right on the back porch for like 3 days then opened it out there so i could toss the shipping box without bringing it in. Those were the first days of COVID … boy did we learn out lessons during that, well some of us.

Update - holy shit these are 1500+ online if you can find them and there is a box on the Chinese favored site Bond Roberts and the bud is up to 2000…. *snuffs it, clips the foot, puts it back*.

Some sort of Opus Shark that's very creamy, complex, and well-balanced. One thing I've never figured out is the Destino al Siglo band - does that mean it's from the centennial release in 2012-13, or do they still release Fuentes with the DaS band and it denotes a size or blend?

After I ordered the Oliva 2022 advent calendar(Now on sale at Cigar Page for 99.99) , I lit up a Oliva Serie O (Possibly I bought it as a part of 2021 calendar)

Almost all Oliva cigars taste excellent (specially the Melanio, the Master Blends 3 and the variety of Cains) and offer excellent value.

Holt’s Cigars has a special this week on Oliva Master Blends 3 boxes. $99-$109 with free shipping and a free Oliva Master Blends metal sign!

Recently had an Apostate Deseret. A bit mellow for a boutique cigar, but I enjoyed it. It's exciting to see more boutique brands pop up. I'd definitely try other offerings from Apostate sometime, I'm thinking probably the Feathered Serpent next since I've been wanting to try a candela wrapper.

Pretty sure the’re still being made and that DaS is a blend, could be wrong though I don’t really keep up with em.
