I think I seen a picture of one of those the other day, can't remember where, might have been on Nino's site, anyway, they look huge, similar to the Monte A, am I wrong?

Would say they're pricey!

HdM EL Particulares in a coffin.?


Nope, but smoked a HDM du Roi in a greenhouse tonight if that helps. Never been in a coffin at all actually. :D :D

[eggopp]

[spacemonkey_no9]

I was given a single Particulares from the limited 2002 trial release a few years ago. Different band to the 2000 and 2001 EL release. Was going to be my final indoor smoke at a herf on the night of the 'ban' but got sidetracked by a Monte DC IIRC...happy days

I purchased a box of these to split with myself and a couple of friends. We smoked them at the Behike launch event at the Goring Hotel in Victoria, London.

Thoughts - such a mild smoke that as a regular full bodied cigar smoker, i found this to be dull and without flavour; however a cigar smoker that enjoys milder smokes may enjoy these?

I've had the 2002 one too but didn't think much of it....why do you ask CIV have you found some of the EL version?

Its Toast forgetaboutit !
Cigar hitman for the Sopranos !

I have a dozen boxes of limited edition and regular production. The cigar is very beautiful, a beautiful "Gran corona". In fact, medium body with hints of wood and dried fruit. Discrete evolution. Unfortunately, I smoked some stuffs with big problems draw. Theres not surprising given that these cigars were produced in 2000 / 2oo1 where in that period as three years before 30% of Cuban production had big problems draw.

No I havn't, so I was wondering what I was missing....

I love 'A' sized cigars and was wondering what I was missing...

Might have to search for a couple...

Thanks for the response guys:cool:

O and I wanted to spark up some decent conversation about :41: 'Cuban' :41: Cigars...

[cohibaIV]

I think I may be one of those people....

How long was the smoking time on one of those Jimmeh?

[senor_robusto]

hey arf,
seeing that a diademas is 2" bigger than a salomon, i'd estimate around 3 hrs!!! this is just from the thought that a salomon lasts me over 2 hrs approx......

either way, that's a lot of smoking.........

all the best,

[senor_robusto]

oh dear,
seems i've replied to the wrong thread (i thought you were referring to the punch diademas italian RE)!!!

however, a cigar over 9"s and with a 47 RG has gotta take a couple of hours to burn through...........

I smoked one (2003 I think) with Jimmy and Big T at the Beheke launch.

It was beautifully made but basically a great big boring stick that never did anything. One could describe it as mild and elegant I suppose.

I am pleased I experienced it but would not smoke another.

[bigbarneyhotdog]

it's one of those smokes that take a bit of looking into. sipping water only and no heavy flavoured meal beforehand. no good on a herf imo, one for kicking back and watching a boring dvd with.
