[ValeTudoGuy]

i've always made plugged cigars work. besides, the ol' meerschaum holders will make above-shoulder cutting much easier!

Fair do's.

I forgot the RyJ Exhibition no3 (as have most folks I feel) Beautiful cigar but plagued by construction problems.... I bought a 2009 box and quite a lot are really hard and tight but the ones that work are outstanding.

I tried everything mate....pins, draw-poker, leaving out the humi to dry out a bit and I had to bin most of them. Have you ever had a good one?

Nope, i had been reading about them not too long before this thread was started and would love to try one..... The thread just reminded me and I was interested in people's experience with them.

out of curiosity, what happened to em all?
all of em plugged up half way when smoking or did you just shoot them out as bombs with a warning tag as: *PLUGGED*?

No shouts for the Siglo IV? Usually a cracking stick!

Personally I think the CORO is overrated for what it is.

IMHO there are better robustos such as Epi2, RASS BOLI RC and ERDM Choix Supreme. They are cheaper and I would rather have more of these than less of the CORO.

Still available from some retailers in Canada, though feedback from Canadian BOTL suggests that most are tent pegs.

Only smoked a couple, but they were young and not particularly good. I've never smoked one at the recognised stage in it's development where it can be best appreciated .... around six years .... the ones I have wont be ready until two or three years .... but I'm hopeful.

Just reading some good things about the Juan Lopez Seleccion No.1, not a brand I am at all familiar with but it's tempting me to buy a single for a test run.

JL is a very underated brand. The JL2 is a lovely smoke, I also like the JL1 but have only had one of those.

Yes defintely, the Siglo 4 is one of my top favourites.
