Very nice. I have a couple of the alec bradleys as well, but I've not had a couple days spare to sit down and smoke one of those bad boys yet.

Nice score, Mothman! I have several of the MAXX cigars myself and they are quite nice. Be prepared to spend some time with the "Freak", it's a biggy. :smoke:

I'd be interested to know how the Diplomaticos smokes. i love the No2, its a well hidden gem, but never smoked the 1.

Hmm, I have a MAXX sitting in the humi too doing a damn good impression of a chair leg. It keeps eyeballing me from a dark recess since I haven't had the courage to fire it up yet!

LOL :biggrin1: I can almost hear the theme from Jaws as you open the humi.

Smoked the Diplomatico 1 last night and although the draw was tight it was a lovely smoke. Mild in strength, but the cigar had that 'nice' feel to it,an anytime smoke for sure, plain and simply an enjoyable puff. :41:
