68524 - MF Le Bijou torpedo

First time back at my local shpo. It was nice to finally be back to it...

I picked up a 5-er of the robusto of the Le Bijou on the auctions and thought they were "meh", but this topredo re-affirmed my faith in the torpedo as one of the top 5 sticks I have ever smoked.

Comrade 7, my experience is based upon the LB Petite Robusto so ymmv; however, when I first got them, I thought they were meh too. As such, I put all of them on the bottom of a Tupperdor and let them sit for 4 years. Once I remembered to try one, I was rewarded with an excellent smoke. Hopefully you can be patient with those Robustos too.

I guess I got a little HNixon in me... I smoked them all pretty quick. My disappointment grew with each robusto until I cried a little over what my once-beloved blend had become. "Don Garcia ruined the blend? NOOOooooooooooooooooo" I cried, as the ashes fell into the ashtray. One after another, the robustos built their growing doubt and disappointment in me like a rancid mold, eating at my inner being.

Like that prositute in Vegas told me, "you did it all too fast! But I still have to charge you for the whole 10 minutes you took me off the street for..."

I should have aged them. Lesson learned. I should have asked the shpo dude "Matt" how long he has had the box in the shop I just smoked at, because it was delicious.

I think we all have a little bit of HNixon in us. My PRs were more a bit of “accidental aging” as I would occasionally see them and think, “I should smoke one, one day”, but never bothered to empty out the Tupperdor and pull one out. Just didn’t seem to be worth the trouble. Ultimately, glad I was lazy.

Since you like the Torpedo vitola so much, why dontcha grab a few of those from here (…or someplace that has them on sale…you know, like that small place…) and do your own aging while buying from the B&M while you wait the new ones out? Think

Edit: just checked the small place, they’re completely out of LB22! But the well-known place has them.

I dunno. I was only a participant in the split so don’t have any website info. Hopefully someone who has the URL and experience will chime in.

As far as Isabela goes, I recently e-mailed them and no response either. Also, unless you’re looking for a mild-med cigar, I would recommend the Serpentine for a stronger, tastier smoke.

^ tanks. I had put together a bit of a sampler. Oddly I was really digging the description of the sparkle. I’m not even a Connie kind of guy but there’s exceptions. Lol. Something must have went down. Can’t do business with them if I can’t get ahold of them.
