Punch bareknuckle?

[Omerta]

So iv been trying a lot of new cigars lately but yesterday I ran into my first cigar a punch. Couldn't tell yeah which it was but it was a punch.

So it got me thinking I should get some. I'm looking at the punch bareknuckle. Anyone have an opinion on them, didn't see a review on here?

If not the bareknuckle anyone have a favorite punch cigar? Just in the mood to try a few.

The bareknuckle is supposed to be their stronger stick. I used to like the London club when I first started smoking. While I haven't had many, cc punch are much better than the nc versions.

Iv never purchased any ccs so kinda out of my wheel house wouldn't know where to even start. I'll probably buy some of the bareknuckle though and I'll check the London club as well

Had two Bareknuckles, thought they were awful. Weird, lumpy roll and horrible flavor. If I ever bought any again (I wouldn't) I'd let them age at least 6 months and preferably a year or more before smoking.

Well, you might love them. It's totally subjective. Just don't get a box until you're sure

I've smoked a dozen or more. I like Punches flavor profile in general, and have a decent immunity to nicotine so I enjoy them. Just smoked my last one a couple days back. I wouldn't recommend the Uppercut, based on a box of churchills that I'm on the tail end of. Burn issues on every one, over the course of a year or more.

All right I'm smoking one now, found it in the bottom of one of my tupperdors. It's improved a tremendous amount since last time.

But if you get any, I'd recommend -- nay, strongly advise -- that you let 'em sit at least 6 and preferably 9+ months. They're harsh as hell ROTT.

A few weeks ago I ashed up an Elite with over a year of rest - yard gar at best.

The thing to remember is that a lot of the classic lines like Punch were developed with a different mindset. They came from a time when "aging" a cigar was considered common. Nobody thought twice about having to buy a box of what smoked well right now and a box to lay down. So, it is best to get a five pack and try them over a period of time.

I'm hearing good things about Punch Signature with three or more months of rest.
