For me, I shall always love the Foulkes for the Sundays we spent together, walking the parks, or enjoying a row boat ride through the country, oh! Heaven and the anticipation, the palpitations and then the kiss. Such a fine stout kiss.

Me too, but do you consider the Hoyo no.1 as such, and as unpopular? I don't know, but I don't feel like it's accurate, it is a well-known and well-regarded cigar imo.

​@@Kenny-yl9pcagreed. When he turned to HdM, I thought he'd pull out the Palmas Extra, which is rather unknown/unpopular yet delightful smoke. One of my favourite cheap and cheerful Cuban cigars. As for Partagas, the PC was a great choice. Two other great ones from the Partagas lineup, in addition to the Aristocrat which was mentioned, are Super Partagas and Mille Fleurs. Both are wonderful smokes. All these that I've mentioned, together with Upmann Majestic are probably some of my favourite cheap Cubans and daily smokes.

Nice to hear Kirby finally hitting puberty

This is positively the best thing going on His Majesty's Interwebs. Partagas Petit Coronas Especiales are tough to beat for a cheeky little smoke! Along the same lines as our beloved Aristocrats, I'm a big fan of the Mille Fleurs as well.

Sure, it's a wonderful cigar, it's no surprise that it is so popular. But these two gentlemen were talking about the No.1, since it is somewhat "unpopular" at least compared to other vitolas like the no.2.

And regarding your fresh box, I would try to be patient and leave it for a few years in your humidor to get it to a better and more delicious flavour profile, it would be a shame to finish it fresh. There are many good cigars that are ready to be smoked out of the box and you could sweeten your waiting time with those.

@@Kenny-yl9pc I've just found a bunch of especials No.2 in my dad's humidor that's been aged for close to twenty years now, surely more than 15 but also surely less than 18-19. Do you think that long of a duration has made a negative impact on the cigar?

@Kenny-yl9pc

@@willdoelol It really depends on whether they were stored properly, i.e. right temp and humidity. I assume they weren't, right? In that case they most likely have taken some "damage"/negative affects due to the improper care. What you can try is to carefully and patiently humidify them, starting with a low humidity and then slowly raising the humidity. Then try and see what it's like. Good luck mate!

I’m curious about morning cigars. Most cigars are all after lunch and dinner cigars.

@Kenny-yl9pc

Morning cigars are usually very mild, creamy and with low/medium nicotine, you know a flavour profile that doesn't overwhelm you but one that gives you a delicious light start into the day.

I wonder if anyone else notices how many times dear Kirby says "you know"

Lots of videos with Kirby's voice going out... Maybe time for a checkup Kirby.

I actually purchased 2 of the monte # 2's about a month ago from that very humidor and i have to admit that they were both a massive disappointment. Both were such a tight draw i thought they were actually fakes. Might have been unlcuky with the box but rather underwhelming experience ive had with these sadly

Probably too little too late now, but Cubans (smaller ones especially) really do benefit from a lower RH prior to smoking. Try dry boxing to 58rh a day or two prior to enjoying.
