Limited exposure but of the ones I have tried, 2008 Monte Sublimes and 2003 Cohiba DC are my favorites. Have not tried the LE Topesbut have smoked the regular production. 2017 Partagas Series No. 1 LE is very good too.
Of the RE, 2010 Por Larranaga Encantos, 2015 La Escepcion Don Jose and 2014 Ramon Allones 8-9-8 take pride of place.

Heard great things about the Celestial Finos...

RA is my favorite cuban Marca and for the price and availability, RA Superiores cannot be beat, IMHO

For $15 I should be happy at the end of a cigar. This one was average at best. Pleasant enough in the beginning. The sweetened cap was unexpected. Mild hints of pipe tobacco in the aroma but not much on the palate. The draw on mine was very tight. Too tight to be enjoyable.

The last 1/3 of the cigar would not stay lit. If you want to give me a free one, I’ll smoke it. But I don’t think I’ll be buying anymore at $15. I have the English one to try next. Hopefully it’s a better experience.

I wouldn’t say I’m dying to try them. I’m not a pipe smoker but if one fell in my lap I’d try. I think saka is a great blender and doesn’t cut any corners in quality. It’s an interesting line. Please post your next one

Had the English StillWell Star last night. One of the best cigars I’ve had in a long time. Just ordered a box!
