50th Cigar

[snooky]

Start as you mean to carry on. Ive smoked all those and enjoyed them but always go back to Juan Lopez No2,
Have a Behike for the 100th smoke. Let us know how it goes.

dont feel silly bud, im still clueing on to basics. Good to ask

[Andy 84]

Oh English Market Selection! Feel a bit silly now...

[Andy 84]

EMS?

Okay I need to get the order in. I think I will go with the BHK 52 as a young one should still be good. If I can find an aged Siglo VI or Monte 2 in the next 5 months, that can be my 100th! I think I'll get the BBF as well since it's not too pricey and save it in the humidor for any other occasion that may arise.

Cheers guys.

When I started out, over the course of a year, smoked only around 30 odd cigars and spent nearly 8 or 900 quid... my first BHK52 thereafter was the only cigar to bring me say to myself, wow... I gotta get more of these. The first I had was less than a year old and tasted great. BHKs are ready to smoke with hardly any age on them. Buy them from a repuatable source and you shouldnt be disappointed. My box of BHKs all smoked great. They were dated 2012 only October 2012 box code BTO.

Next, Id go for an aged Siglo VI. I tried a tubed one, and it was poor. I want to try again, despite the expensive price tag, but will defo go for an aged one. As a newbie, I think you wont go wrong with these two... Thats my opinion...

All four of those cigars will be fitting, which of those brands have you enjoyed most? They might be the ones to go for . Personally I love the BBF

I agree with rascal, EMS means nothing, except high prices

Monte 2 is the only one i have tried out of them and was great

I'm hoping your right as I'm fast running out of old ones. Got a couple of cabs which I'm ageing now but there will be a time in the next year when I'll have to either buy some aged ones (unlikely) or start smoking them with only a year on them. I'm determined not to run out of aged VI's in the future though, if I keep buying enough to have a rolling stock it should be easy to leave them to sleep. I've also bought both cabs from different shops so I guess that may make a difference in the smokes. Anyone know which factory codes are good for them?

[Pandyboy]

Siglo VI imho is the best in that list. I've had a year old one that tasted great.

[tommy]

I'd avoid an unaged VI and go with one of the others. Don't want to put yourself off the great siggy VI.

The little white sticker you mean is that not the H&F sticker that is not the EMS sticker which changes colour every year?
Any other areas outside the UK that H&F supply get that white sticker and it is not said to be ems

... should be? last offered to me was a decently oily box of Montecristo 520s for upwards of $350...

had the H&F sticker too... will revisit to see what colour it was.
but aye. those two ladies always gives boxes with the H&F but no EMS

that's not true! people always try to charge more for that little white sticker.

but seriously... how long ago, would you say? i was really hoping to get a MC 2 EMS (as i've only had one good MC 2 in my life) on my trip over... but perhaps i should just save it for something else

People might try to charge more as they paid more for it as EMS is only for sale in UK with high prices. The little white sticker you mean is that not the H&F sticker that is not the EMS sticker which changes colour every year?

EMS means nothing might have a long time ago but not now.

FOR ME, would be the BHK 52 followed by the Boli Beli
if EMS, two guarrenteed good smokes

I have had more plugged ems sticks than from anywhere else. EMS means nothing might have a long time ago but not now.

Monte A the only way to smoke like a true dictator

or a diamendes.
those giant perfectos work as well
