They are good, and great for winter.
Also gotta say, the construction on these is amazing..........one of the best I’ve ever seen.
This makes the burn and smoke just that much better imo.
Light draws produce lots of flavorful smoke, while the cigar stays lit and burns perfectly.

Chit.......talked myself into another box.

What does anyone think about the Cain sampler for $11.99?

EDIT: Nevermind, couldn't wait and pulled the trigger. Never had these before but going for it on all your recommendations above. Is a great size for winter 4 sure.

On a side note, not sure how I missed it, but just now saw that Matt Booth has rebooted 101. Not making any of the old blends - including this one - but he said previously that he retained ownership of them. Also read that he had an agreement with Davidoff for the distribution of the (original) 101 stock that would "protect the brand."

Soooo...perhaps after all the old stock is finally sold, Matt will reissue some of the old blends.

Had one of the MC3 sticks. Good, but not nearly as good as Chief Cool Arrow, which is at the same price point (at the MB3 place). But, I like strength and body and nic-hit, so maybe that explains it, as the CCA has more of that. Also CCA is a 5-nation blend (3 of them ligeros including the wrapper!) vs. 3-nation for the MC3, and I do like complexity. Everyone's palate is different though.

Just guessing here, but that agreement may have taken the form of "sell the remaining boxes on clearance but never under $80 each" or similar language, because I'm noticing a consistent $80-per-box "floor" on the prices. $4/stick price floor would protect the brand somewhat, at least.... it's better than the brand image/reputation damage that'd come with $2 a stick, for example!

Yes, but will they be anything like, and anywhere nearly as good as, the original releases? If the history of the cigar industry is any guide, that's usually doubtful. Also, they're obviously guaranteed to be years younger in age.

Thank you King and everyone who posted above alerting to this cigar and the sale.

Just fired up my first one which, even though it only had a few days of rest, smoked and tasted great.Lasted way longer than I would have thought and never burned hot are harsh even down to the nub.

A wonderful example of this board at its finest!

In the "For What It Is Worth" Department the MB3 place seems to be the only one that has these Room 101's for sale as well as the Chief Arrows. Everywhere else they are out of stock or not available. Looks like the gang over there purchased all the stock that was remaining.

I mentioned that weeks ago.
At that time there were still a few retailers that were down to their last boxes. Now there’s still some Papi Chulo out there for stupid prices, and thought I saw another vitola, but no more Roxxos.
MB3 will be out of all the MC3s sooner than later...
