I just smoked one of these that had been aging in my humidor for 6 months... Any of y'all ever have one of these?

Cusano Exclusivos Perectos have been favorites for a while. The first one of the Cameroons I tried seemed harsh when I bought them so by comparison, so I just stuck them in the humi for a while.

I have to say I was pleased with this smoke! This was a smooth, spicy, and very full-bodied cigar. 1996 Vintage Cameroon wrapper combined with 1996 and 1998 Vintage Dominican filler. Great flawless burn and draw! Have had many worse smokes at twice or three times this price. Some Maker's Mark, a good book and this cigar made a nice evening!

Let me know what you think! They come up on here once in a while. I will likely buy a few more when these are gone!

I like 'em ... had 5 aging in the humidor unil Mon or Tue earlier this week when that count got reduced to 4 ... those 6 months really do make a difference, don't they ??

If you like 'em, great! I think the blend is much too strong for a Cameroon wrapper. I'm also not convinced that it has an African grown wrapper. I suspect a Caribbean grown Cameroon seed wrapper.

About a month ago,I had a CKC Diadema from a 5pack I won here about a year ago. Man,that thing kicked my butt. I wish Cbid would auction more of these,as they're a little hard to come by and expensive too. X

I have to agree with Mr. Easyhair.
