Luscious rustic art, a grand cigar band and a sturdy box on Pinolero and Pinolero Maduro by AJ Fernandez. The maduros are delicious, but be patient. ROTB they have a sharp tang that mellows after a few months.

Comment on cigar bands, I have a small gripe about certain brands and their bands. Even though I really enjoy Illisione and Tatuaje cigars I would like some description of the cigar on the band. I might 'win' a few lots on the devil site, by the time they arrive, and acclimate for a few months I've down right forgotten just what the heck I was bidding on while drinking too much months earlier!


Just my little gripe, I do think the Montecristo's CC band looks pretty sharp with the gold inlay trim stuff. Besides Por Larranaga may be the best looking.

Which Monte band is that, haven't seen a CC with gold inlay, the Reserva band?

I picked up a ten'er of Double Edmundos. The band had a little gold trim I had not noticed before, of course maybe I had not noticed either.

Montes came out with a new band this past year

Huh, didn't even notice :-)

Probably because you smoke cigars with a little age! Here's a pic of the Monte petite No 2
