Just a fantastic smoke... I know it's a cigar that has been recieved pretty well, but I just don't think these things get enough love! Rich, smooth, powerhouse of a cigar... Always a "go to" with me. :cbig:

I love the box pressed Niveladora in this line. Love the big full flavor to go with the big power it packs behind it. I definitely keep these on hand!

I have to give a plug for the celebration line from JDN they are a great smoke as well. None of the JDN cigars get much love I don't think. All of there cigars are pretty good imho.

:thumbsup: agreed!

I bought a box of the Antano 1970, The Dark Corojo, and the Celebracion last summer. I am down to two of each box... Love them all

I agree on the Celebracion. It's good and ages well. Love the 1970s too, but the Dark Corojo didn't do for me. I think I need to try it again....

Dark Corojo:

This is a cigar that is built for aging. Def don't need to age as long as an Opus, but a good year bring these to maturity. Smaller the size, the better.

Best,
JD

I wouldn't say a definite "go to" for me, but I do like the El Martillo size. Yeah, flavor of a corojo that reminded me of the Gran Habano #5 only less intense. I routinely grab a five pack here and there as those cigars are pretty heavy and for how much time I enjoy smoking, do the trick for me.

also, having had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Alejandro Martinez Cuenca at Mission Pipe last year, I feel a little loyal towards the brand just based on his humbleness.

I need to get into the smaller RG'd ones it sounds... I smoke more of the El Martillo's & Poderoso's.
Those were the two sizes I'm familiar with. I actually like the Poderoso more on principle of size but normally I only have about two and a half hours at most I can smoke a stick and the El Martillo fits that bill nicely if I smoke slowly.

Aging hm? I did have one that had a few more months on it, maybe my next order I"ll grab a few more and see what's what.
