Not impressed with the Monte White lunch smoke.  i remember a few years ago while working in the humidor for Cigarette City in Smyrna DE they had Monte White Toros for about 12.00/stick and I was allowed to smoke anything "unsalable" due to chips or cracks ,etc.  so there were occasional "damaged" Monte whites i'd smoke.  they were damn good sort of acting mild while delivering some decent flavors and a nice dose of vitamin N.  today's offering was just harsh.  i'm wondering, with the seeming dumping of Monte Christo sticks lately (never remember them going on sale so much in the past) if they had a bad run of tobacco and are getting rid of some sub par sticks.

That's definitely not good marketing. Then again, most modern businessmen are in it for the short term.

Any interest in the new CH/Monte collaboration, Ciudad De Musica?

Should have a bigger label.  Some interest, but $12/stick and general lack of availability doesn't have me overly excited.

More interested in giving Aladino and Tat Monsters Michael a try.

Wasn't impressed with the Aladino. Only had the one but felt it was meh. I'd try it again though.

What are we stuffing them with? I recently made a pork shoulder that went over really well with the family. Even reheated, it never dried out and was super tender. Will be making another one soon.

I just use pork stuffing in a box, season the choos with garlic and Italian seasonings, a little olive oil, wrap in foil and throw on the grill, low heat for about 2 hours.

I stand corrected...

Aladino by Julio R. Eiroa. Taste like an old school Camacho.

Low and slow, is the secret to tender pork.

Is there a Casa de Montecristo lounge near you Tony?  Seems about the only place to get them, and it is the only place to get the pyramide vitola.
