My taste either really changed or these are a lot stronger young. It's been my experience that RASS are not even smokable for a few years but time is rewarded. |

Montecristo Regata 2-19
Very good ROTT, I'd love to let them spend a year in the magic box but I don't have that much restraint. Maybe I better get another box while they're still on sale. |

HUHC the last two days.
I think they're my favorite CC. Perfect smoking time, been very consistent for the last 5 years I've been buying them, and I feel like they carry the CC flavor profile over anything else. When I have a buddy who wants to try a Cuban, I usually hand over one of these cause they have the unique CC flavor above any others.
They're simple, one dimensional, but that's what I like about them. Also I tend to lose interest after 30 minutes. |

When I sit down to have a cigar I want something that lasts for an hour or more because I'm prolly reading something. I always have these and PLPC, Party Shorts etc on hand but end up smoking two. Prefer something like robusto or toro vitolas. |

Had another Dip no.2 last night, much better roll, much better cigar. Also had a LGC RE Espana....the less said about that the better, blech. Hoping that, like the RG 88, they come around with significant rest. |

Eh... I'm liking them now with lots of rest, but are they worth it? I'm not sure, at the sale price I'm seeing, around $130, they are way more palatable, but I'd rather spend a bit more on the Punch 48's, seen those for $140 a box recently and think that's a much better value as my 48s have been smoking really, really well. |
