# Cuaba Piramides EL 2008 - SOA JUL 08 / TEB JUL 08

# Hoyo de Monterrey Regalos Limited Edition 2007 (AGU-JUN 07)

# Montecristo Sublimes Limited Edition 2008 (LSO JUL08)

# Partagas Serie D Nº5 Limited Edition 2008 (LPM OCT 08)

# Romeo y Julieta Escudos Limited Edition 2007 ( EMA JUN-07)


or would you rather invest that money in some Partagas Lusi/Sir Winston/CoRo?
I have not tried any of the above. But I am a fan of the Montecristo and Hoyo Flavour profiles.

I would go for the Cuaba's or the HDM Regalos. Both of those cigars have been very spot on with me.

The problem with LEs is they are often nothing like the taste of regular production cigars of the same brand. That being said, I like the Hoyo Regalos & Party D5s. Of course that doesn't mean you will!

The Escudos is the only one I would we a bit wary of. The Cuaba are a bit risky too.

The Sublimes have come around nicely (I have had 3) and the Partagas are great from what I hear.

Also of note are the RyJ Dukes 2009. Amazing smoke. And of course the Hoyo area favourite of mine.


Cor: Steve, you have proven yourself to be a tremendous whack job.

Out of all the EL's I have tried, the Hoyos have been outstanding...I would pick up some Regalos, if I were you...

PSD #5 will thrill you, even if you are not a lover of the PSD #4

the only one i would avoid is the hdm regalo.

cheers

Don Andres---can you elaborate on the PSD5...you are right, the PSD4 does not thrill me--at least not since the late 90's when it seemd to have (to me, anyways) a peppery profile. The closest I have had to a PSD4 that I enjoyed was several years ago when Habanos came out with a Reserva edition which seemed to contain the flavor profile I was used to (though at a very high cost)....is the PSD5 close to the flavor profile of a PSD4 from the 90's???
