Gold Medal

[gmacz]

Great smokes, I found problems with them being too tight under the gold band.
Never heard anyone else have problems so might have been a bad box.
Might have needed time in the humidor, never got any.
A bit reluctant to buy any more, good to know how these smoke.
My first Boli problem cigars.
Big Boli fan.

The Boli GM is still on my 'to try' list - after all the good things I hear about them on the forum, I'm going to have to sort that out!

I've got a FEB 08 box that I found way too tight to smoke so you're not alone! Not touched them for ages though so could be vastly improved now.

I removed the gold band to try and get them to smoke properly.
Left them for a while to recover.
The uncovered part was ok, just the covered part was solid.
It was aug 09 boxes from memory.

Omg will you all stop dissing my gave Boli! They have feelings to ya know.....

Indeed, lovely smokes and never had a problem with them, then again I think I've only had one really tight CC in the last year so maybe I'm just lucky!

Didn't even know there were '09 boxes out there, thought only '07/'08?

[gmacz]

sta - ago 09 is the box code on my 2 boxes of Boli - gold.
Just checked them.
Maybe a bad year and never to be mentioned again.

After all this GM talk I decided to buy one. When I get offshore (June hopefully) I will buy myself a box if I like this one! Failing that, a box of MC Petit Edmundo as I had one a few days ago and it was amazing!

[gmacz]

Petit edmundo is a cracking smoke.
Great construction, burn and taste.
I would put it above the GM in all depts.

And I would put it below, each to their own!

i totally agree...... the boli GM is a great cigar! i have 3 boxes and a handful of singles, i plan to keep them for special occasions!! the monte petite edmundo is a great cigar!! tbh, i thik it's a different beast alogether from the boli GM! saying one is better than the other is a pointless arguement...... both are very good!
