I liked them when they were originally released, but I've tried them recently and thought they sucked.

I am a big fan of the #1 and #5. Like D said though, I think the initial release was a bit better but I still like 'em.

When we first got them in the shop in the dress boxes they were great. I know between James and myself we smoked most of them.

I haven't had one since, makes me sad to hear.

Every Riqueza I've had was great. I bought a #1 this morning and it probably won't be around anymore after this weekend. damn good in my opinion. one of my favorite Tats, second only to the brown label.

Hey man glad you enjoyed it can you give us more detail? Like is it a mild cigar or smooth? What is the average time it took ya to smoke it and hows the taste and smell of it?

Like these a lot. Picked up a box of the #2's when they first came out. Cocoa, Coffee -- that's what I get, too.

Haven't bought any since, but have noticed that the color of the wrappers is really inconsistent in the B&M I visit most often. Maybe they have changed things up since the initial release.

I have found that these usually need to sit a few weeks before smoking. I have smoked them right from the B&M a couple times and thought they were just mehh. Overall they are a good stick but I will take a red any day of the week over the Riquezas.

I Liked Them Enough That I Bought A Box, Which I Almost Never do! Nice Spice, But Stays Smooth & Rich, Good Even Burn & Draw: But That Box Came From 6 Months ago.:) I Believe I Have The CE- Around 45 Minute smoke for me.

I started off smoking the #2's, but then the Petit Robustos came out which are my favorite by far. These things are packed with sweet spicy flavor. I do agree that they smoke and taste better if I let them sit for a few weeks after buying at the B&M.

only had original releases, and they were all spot on, smooth with subtle hints of black cherry. if there is a difference between those and the current production ones i wouldnt know, dont have any places by me that sell them and dont feel like buying a few online, but they certainly left a lasting impression on me :tu

I thought they were ok, but nothing special.

this is one of only a few cigars that i can say that i put it out before getting halfway through it. I thought it was horrible.

Just not a fan. For some reason they just don't do it for me.

I like many Tat's and a lot of other stuff by PJ and DPG, but these aren't my favorites.

I have a 07 #3s box maybe 5 left I wouldnt trade for Dracs, Blacks, or Boris.

Its a decent cigar, but for me its inconsistent. I either really like them or pitch them halfway.

Come on B, we all know you only smoke aged Cohibas. Dont deny it, cause I can get the boys in here to verify. :D

The first one I had was only a week off the truck. It was pretty good. I let the others rest. I had one about 3 weeks ago that sat for a year. Holy Cow! it was one of the best smokes I have had in a long-long time. Looking at moving on a box now.

Love the #5's

Anybody have any experience with the "Cabinet Selection" line (particularly the double corona)?

JJG 11-12-2009 05:18 PM

Re: La Riqueza-Deal or No Deal
 
I've gone through about 5 now and the #1 I smoked last night was not as good. Don't get me wrong, it was still very tasty. It just started out way too strong. It mellowed out after two inches or so, but it also seemed to lose a lot of flavor. I need to smoke one more before I decide if these are consistent or not.

I do like them a lot, but if they're not as good as the brown label Tats, why switch?

#4 is my favorite in the line. Just had one the other night after finding it in the bottom of my box. Smoked awesome. Smooth with a great burn.

My Favorite is the La Riqueza #2 in the box. I like it more then the #2 cabinet. When you buy the La Riqueza #2 box it comes box pressed. And the La Riqueza #2 cabinet comes round in shape. I choose the box pressed . It is a very consistent cigar . It feels smooth to the touch and has great flavors. If I had room in my vinotemp I would love to see how this cigar would age ..
