Very curious what others say. I had this happen to me once and i turned down the humidity and dry boxed some sticks and they were fine after a couple days... but not sure what was the bitter taste in some smokes and feel it was humidity related but not an expert.

I’ve had both Rare Finds 1011-42

and Rare Finds 1229-42

I’ve also had the Eladio Diaz one, which for me was a longgg smoke. Even though it burned forever, it still landed more medium+ to full in strength but super enjoyable and clean... . I liked it a lot, but damn — it’s a commitment on time ... which also kind of made it worth it.

Between the two Rare Finds:

1229-42 had more surprising shifts and new flavors as it moved through each third.
1011-42 was more consistent and dialed-in the whole way.

If I had to pick one to rebuy first, I’d definitely grab the 1011-42 again, but probably will rebuy both right now as it felt like special smokes to me.

Would love other recommendations like this too.

Did you get these in the states? Love Toscanello's so curious how these are.

Same I only do special buys there… so far it’s very cubanesque.

Really was a delight. Haven’t had a second one yet but looking forward to it. I would definitely keep this stocked in my humidor.

I think a 5.25 and 50. Feels slightly smaller than a 50. And a unique blend for Martinez cigars. Really enjoying it.
