I pulled the first stick out of a new Jan 07 box of Montecristo No.4's I know that they are way to new to dive in but I wanted to check them out just to see what I have to look forward to later after they have had time to sleep for a LONG while.

Well I was impressed for it being only a few months old, early on there were hints of sweetness, as the burn stayed pretty much razor sharp. 1/3 of the way through I started to get some of that familar spice, but it varied often. Held the ash till well after the 1/2 way point, and had some outstanding expresso flavor through much of the stick. A nice draw and lots of smoke, I think all this cigar needs is alot more age to be a great cigar rather than just a good one.

So what are you guys smoking tonight?

skoal mint...

 

[Greg]

:hysterica

 

[tobby4]

well i rotate between that and regular skoal...

 

[Greg]

Mint=Blue Label I think....that's a good one.

I used to dip when I was playing baseball. Golf too.

Bad stuff though.....

 

[tobby4]

yep... it is bad stuff, but better than cigarettes for me

 

[Greg]

Not a good analogy Clay.....though I smoke a Camel here and there as well :stickbeat

 

[tobby4]

was not looking for the analagy... but still.. i can dip twice a day, as opposed to smoking half a pack.. trying to wein myself off

Yah I had a friend up north that just got back from the island and he sent me a box that he picked up while he was there. Just another box to stick in the coolidor for a long nap. But I have the feeling that when they wake up I may just fall in love!

Not me. I dipped worm shit for twenty plus years and finally put it to rest about 6 months ago. I can smoke a cig and put them down for years but I need to just steer clear of Skoal.

I just had an SLR Regio and water...now, it's on to Vodka...

Same here. 24 years of chewing skoal and then eventually skoal longcut. Go through about 1/2 can a day.

When I started, it was 75 cents a can. It's 4.39 right now.

Unfortunately, I was the bad influence on Brian. I did switch brands for the last year I dipped, (don't remember what) it was less than half the price of skoal/coppenhagen. Now I need to do something about the extra 20 lbs added, or buy larger pants.

 

[David]

Yea, they have some cheaper kinds like Wolf and Grizzly.

 

[tobby4]

so you are saying that i shouldnt dip saturday in between cigars.. might tempt you?
