King of Cuban short smokes?

The only thing with the Reyes is that for the same price I usually end up going for a petite corona, but I have never been dissapointed by them, or with any Trinidad actually- I love the band as well!

Yes, the age old dilema cost versus brand & size of smoke. If you're paying UK prices the difference isn't insignificant. To me Trini's & Cohiba's are never going to be everyday smokes but brands to chose on extra special days, then you don't have to think about th ecost as much & justisfy the extra flav is worth for th eday you chose to smoke it on. I find the Reyes very attractive,esceially in it vlittle varnish abient. THey do lend themselves to a quiet half & an hour with a coffee & not to strong to have miud morning witht he papers. I do agree age changes these, again if you are just picking up a couple of singles in the UK, you're probably not going to be able to appreciate that so perhaps best to go for the other brands mentioned that smoke well fresh.

One of my first cab's was a Reyes so I have a soft spot for them but perhaps it's telling I never bought another although I have several boxes of Coloniales & Vigias. I have several Fundies but never brought a box, not coz I don't love them but I am just not in that league!

The ERDM DT has been a recent discovery, absolutely wonderful morning smoke.

How are they young or do they need some time on their side ?

ERDM DT's always benefit with some age, 2-3yrs make a difference, 5yrs plus they are grand, 20yrs+ bliss! Smoke what you can get & keep a few back to age.

I was going to say that they are smoking great out of the box (late 19 code), but then I saw what Simon said and may have to slow my consumption down.
