At MB3...
23 hour left...
Been a few years...and I admit I tried quite a few of them, so I didn't hate them....but my overwhelming flavor memory is of chalk....got rather tired of them....I recall them as one of the driest finishes of any cigar
Mb I should revisit....

Same. Very astringent.
They're not awful, but not great. If I was doing the yard gar thing I'd keep em around, and I used to for that reason. But they're just not for me.
I smoked one soon after and determined, that with a longer nap, they would be worth $3 for me.
Most of those ended up with my BIL and he liked em.
My MB3 plan has always been to bury them for at LEAST a year.
The MB3s I have left now are from Spring, 2014, and they are vey good imo...........but they’re also prolly 5 years old now.
That said...............for me, as far as deals go in 2019.........$60 for 20 MB3s versus $70 for 20 MC3 Roxxos?
Roxxos for the win...
Those Monticellos are really good.
But that deal isn't on sale right now, I think when they put it on sale it's $70 instead of $80.
Thanks for the heads up, King. I saw the email this morning and just figured it was gonna be their standard sampler sale, so didn't bother to check.
I would agree some others around there that I do think the smaller sizes are significantly better and that the torp is my least favorite of them. Would like to hear what vitola people that had the "dry" comments above were smoking as I notice more differences between the different sizes with MB3's than many other cigars.
Personally, I would much prefer 20 of the Robustos, but I still think they are all worth $3.
Now given that I still have a good supply in the coolador from previous sales (they do rest well) and that I just sprung for the Roxxos and some CCs, I actually passed on the deal this time.
not a fan of the Patriots
