I've been tempted to get a bundle of the EL line.I have a few of his sticks.. The EL's are the pricier ones but worth every penny. My opinion of course. I also suspect that these are not custom rolls but the real deal. I suspect I know what he has going on and I'm all for it. win win win for everyone. I dont want to fuel rumors so I will leave it there.
Most of the EL line is Cohiba. The No 1 is the only one I havent tried yet but he says similar to a SIG III or V but in a No1 body.
La Reina is probably ERDM but been a few years since I smoked one so need to revisit those. The Topes are absolutely gorgeous smokes and no question they are Trinidad and probably the real deal. The aroma is unmistakable. I only wish I had bought more than 5 but they were not cheap.
The Wf line is also good. The lancero is probably a Monte Especial. I've smoked a couple the last week and think I have that one pegged.
The 898 is Partagas. No question.
The Corona extra I have no match for in the data base. 5 5/8 x 46. Also from 2020 and I haven't had one in 3 years but I remember them being excellent whatever they are.
The Robusto Extra I think I know what it is but they are just recently acquired so can't say untilI smoke a few and think about it.
This week I topped off the SIGIV, EL Lancero, Piramides and 898's. Once those arrive next week I will probably wait to top off a few others when he gets some in.
I really hope he keeps those 898's coming. At 200 a bundle they are fantastic and could easily become a daily smoke.

Totally worth it
One of my favorites are the EL Siglo IV (5 5/8 X 46) I have found that they smoke nice ROTT for a few weeks, then at the 6 month mark they really start to shine! I don't think you will be disappointed with them, he does have a (10) pack available right now
Good way to test the waters without going into the deep end!One of my favorites are the EL Siglo IV (5 5/8 X 46) I have found that they smoke nice ROTT for a few weeks, then at the 6 month mark they really start to shine!

No sick period?
It's strange I have smoked at least 2 bundles of these, I have only hit a few at maybe 2 or 3 months that were just ok. But they just keep getting better after 6 months. But I also like them within the fist month
I’ll send you an EL esplendido (Sep ‘19) and a WF LC 1966 (May ‘18) for you to try if you want to test them out and see where they can end up before you blind buy them
I can pilfer your addy off the box when it comes back

JO's are great for about 6 weeks off the truck and then go "sick" for about 3 to 5 months. At that point I just let them rest for a year.

When I get back to DC let's do a blind 5'r. I'll hit you with some aged JO's with 10 plus years on them
I thought you never had them and were looking at picking them up lol, didn’t realize it was just the current production, my bad. I need more cigars like I need another hole in my head, keep those JO’s resting
