The Illusione Epernay Le Matin is another good box pressed cigar, and I'd recommend the 262 Paradigm Box Pressed Toro as well

Ok I gotta ask

I have never purchased box pressed cigars before honestly. Besides the obvious shape, is there any difference in the curing process or flavor of the box pressed versus non BP?

Flavor is so subjective that it's hard say if box pressing makes a difference, but I don't think that is does make a direct difference.

One thing I have found is that box pressed cigars tend to be rolled a little looser -- which may affect the flavors (which is why I said no "direct difference" above).

Cool, I may try them just for kicks with my next order spree

Thanks for the 'fo!

Add me to the fan list for the 262 Ideology - the construction on these is flawless, never had a bad stick - and there's a good bit of flavor for such a mild smoke.
