Unsung CCs Worth Mentioning

[Eyesack]

Still rummaging through lots of posts lol but some of mine that fly under the radar over here are:
Partagas Mille Fleur (good, mild daytime smoke!)
Partagas PCE (IMO better than the Mille Fleur, but haven't seen them on my vendor's website in a long time)

I can tell you a handful of under-the-radar NON-Cubans, but that's a different section... lol! Great thread guys! Getting more ideas every day!

Fonseca Cosacos...???

I like them...

I think these are yummy too! But the 2001's are... not so yummy lol.

Any body know of a ukstockist that has these would love to try a few

I have been looking out for a box too... no luck yet at UK stockists, if I find a box I'll do a box split.

Im a big fan of the Monty 5.
Its a great morning smoke with coffee.

Talking Monte's I think the Monte 1 is great. Never seems to get a mention but a lovely vitola (especially with a couple of years on them).

Ya know, I keep meaning to order some of the 1's. I always seem to get distracted by something else!

I think maybe the price is the biggest put-off for many Monkey .... that and the size not making them the easiest cigars to store.

Yes!! The Especial is a great smoke. Lovely size too. Needs a bit of nursing to stay lit because of the small RG but very much worth the effort

I must go back and try one before I comment...

I've none left or I'd have sent you one or two to try. If you track any down make sure they're a year or two old for extra wonderfulness

[cohibaIV]

Will do...

I really want to now...

size and price? same size as a Boli Gold medal, price same as a No2 ...are you confusing the Monte No1 for an 'Especial' No1

No. An even bigger, bigger mistake. For some reason I was thinking on the 'A'. I think I'm getting old!

For some reason I was thinking on the 'A'.

Probably because the Monte A's vitola de galera (=factory name) is either gran corona or especiale - when the Montecristo Especiale's vitola de galera is Laguito No.1?
Yes it's confusing!
