Hello Pete,
Right with you on the inconsistent problem with cigars, when a small selection, say three to five are all over the place, that ends my desire to buy a box if they were from the same box. Have a few times gotten fivers from online retailers with widely varying wrapper shades and ranging from ok to mushy in feel. Am used to buying boxes most of the time, and haven't noticed a lot of consistancy problems when doing so, but wouldn't expect to see the problem there anyway.Also that is surely one of the best things about the Montecristos, that quality of construction time and time again has those who like the brand coming back for more of the same.
Bob.

Hi Bob,

If I had to venture a guess, cigars that don't pass QC muster may end up in smaller packs, especially on CigarBid (as a guess) where they may sell for a fraction of the listed price. The cigars that I've bought, smoked and seen that are called seconds would have formerly been called training cigars, made by apprentice or newer torcedors and they often are too tightly packed and made with lesser leaf - so that is what they are intended to be. How cigars are separated in QC certainly changes by manufacturer and brand.

2012 Pioneer Valley Especiales Churchill natural. Kirkland coffee light.

These were very good values (@~$1.20/stick) when I bought several boxes. Thought that they were all gone but found another box. Nice wrapper, well made with a consistent burn, they don't have the body or depth of an Avo but they've respectable smokes.

Tax season is finally over!! Smoking an Ave Maria Reconquista to celebrate. One of my favorite smokes.

I just got in a lot of trouble for ordering another box of these...

Well worth it! These are ones I totally share to get others involved in our sport!

Good espresso with one of these:



Big thank you to @Hardheaded for the cigar!

My first one and I'm liking it so far! Little harsh on the retro-hale, but I'm a pansy in that department so no surprise...
