This, along with a few other nudges, made me order these. I have two questions:

1. Have they remained the same quality over the years?
2. Do they have a flavor profile that could be likened to another brand?

Oh, man. Let me smoke a few of this batch coming in, and I'll revisit this.

*EDIT*. I appreciate the vote of confidence.

I'd be satisfied with your thoughts from previous batches, they can't have changed that much Fuente or Padron? Pepin or Tat brown? White Owl grape or pineapple?

Just kidding....take you time!

I smoked one of those Dantes a few weeks ago (thank to @CigSid), and it was fantastic!

I've never had one but someone I know bought a box after trying one. That was good enough for me! Luckily, they're still easy to get in the UK. Excited to try them.

Wow, they all look fantastic!

They look even better in person than they do it the pictures.

Beautiful cigars! That’s the 5th LGB box I’ve seen (plus the 2 I have) that look incredible... just updated the master list.
