I like them Lot 23s. They burn when the air is wet enough to plug up most anything else.

Honest reviews are what people look for here. Good bad or average, We have all had our share. Mac. not my favorite but many love them..( too mild for me) Lot 23, not my favorite, Flavor profile too generic for me, but again thats just my taste.

I too find that a cigar I once enjoyed with company, or the fact that I smoked it on the first day of vacation, tasted better then other days. I rarely am able to finish a cigar when I'm alone. Smoking is a social thing for me. Being on a cigar forum can help while smoking. Ambience is a major factor. As well as your current state of mind. If I smoke a cigar before work, it just doesn't give as much pleasure. Taste buds are shut down because a shift in focus. Make sense?

Martel

Christian, I agree. I do like to smoke alone, but attitude, ambiance, and company really can affect enjoyment.

Nice work on the reviews. I haven't had a macanudo, but I do like the Lot23 and Undercrown.

Nice reviews so far. I haven't had a Macanudo in probably more than 10 years, but I don't remember a chemical taste. As for the house blend line, I highly recommend the sun grown.

nice review martel.

Martel

Thanks, I appreciate the comment, ddubridge. This one was a little more to the point than some of the others. I guess I'm not feeling stream-of-consiousness tonight.

A peferct Armada should take you the better part of 2 hours. Can't rush it. Smooth it is. The more you smoke them the more you will realize the complexity in this fine stick. One of my favs. They also age well.

2 hours out of a 5x44. I'm impressed. Show me the way.

Martel the Chemical taste you speak of with the Macanudo is that amonia type taste. If it is I know I get that with some of the fresher smokes. Try clipping the end if you taste the Amonia set it in the Humi for a day or two and try again. It just happen to me with a My Father Sampler.
