I've still got a sealed box of 2011 WMD's. Great, strong cigar, but I suspect they've mellowed a little....might be time to crack it open....I thought the dink was going to buy 'em some time ago, but he chickened out.
I smoked one of my last couple TNT's about a month ago and they've calmed down considerably
Only cigar that the nic got to me a little was LFD DL 6x60....I agree with Shawn...not nearly enough flavor to justify the power. I love DL chiselitos, but a 60RG DL seemed rather pointless to me.
A local in Raleigh used to sell an LFD Icepick was an incredible strong, tasty cigar. Not sure they're still made....I have only one left :(
As mentioned above El Cobre and Rico were very good, very strong cigars that are no longer made.
Hank, when did you purchase the Royal Silk? I only know of two; one from 8-10 years ago - was an awesome, smooth/creamy med corojo....I have maybe one left :( The other was a poor resurrection a couple/few years ago that was poorly made and unsmokeable to me....lousy burn and muddled, nasty flavors...admittedly, I only tried one and gave the rest away...maybe I got a dud?
Maybe you'd like the hot sauce cigar they sell here (used to, at least.) I forget what it was called....I thought it a gimmick, but truth was that if you rinsed off the cap, it wasn't an awful cigar The Royal Silk was from like 7 years ago. Sucks that the newer ones aren't as good. I may have to try some stuff from the LFD brand as they are listed a few times on here. Never had any. I remember when I first started smoking cigars they were only considered average. Must have changed a lot or the people that smoked cigars just didn't like them.
