@@Kenny-yl9pcagreed. When he turned to HdM, I thought he'd pull out the Palmas Extra, which is rather unknown/unpopular yet delightful smoke. One of my favourite cheap and cheerful Cuban cigars. As for Partagas, the PC was a great choice. Two other great ones from the Partagas lineup, in addition to the Aristocrat which was mentioned, are Super Partagas and Mille Fleurs. Both are wonderful smokes. All these that I've mentioned, together with Upmann Majestic are probably some of my favourite cheap Cubans and daily smokes.
For me, I shall always love the Foulkes for the Sundays we spent together, walking the parks, or enjoying a row boat ride through the country, oh! Heaven and the anticipation, the palpitations and then the kiss. Such a fine stout kiss.
This is positively the best thing going on His Majesty's Interwebs. Partagas Petit Coronas Especiales are tough to beat for a cheeky little smoke! Along the same lines as our beloved Aristocrats, I'm a big fan of the Mille Fleurs as well.
👌😚💨 great stuff. I've been keen on some of the slimmer ring gauges for some time so obviously in agreement & I understand where Max is coming from w/ the Hoyo 1.
@@Kenny-yl9pcmost definitely plan on letting them rest a few years. the cigar in the video is a especial no.2 they referenced the no.1 but that is the no.2 in the video.
@@Kenny-yl9pc I've just found a bunch of especials No.2 in my dad's humidor that's been aged for close to twenty years now, surely more than 15 but also surely less than 18-19. Do you think that long of a duration has made a negative impact on the cigar?
Top video, lads! And Kirby, your pronunciation of Por Larranga is almost spot on now, huge acknowledgments! Now hurry up and release the Cuba excursion video we've all been patiently waiting for lol 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I actually purchased 2 of the monte # 2's about a month ago from that very humidor and i have to admit that they were both a massive disappointment. Both were such a tight draw i thought they were actually fakes. Might have been unlcuky with the box but rather underwhelming experience ive had with these sadly
Actually that's how you know that those were truly authentic cubans, because they dont function properly😂 if you have box of 25 cubans, atleast 10 of those are unsmokable... 🤭
@@wrathforged2179 i think that's a bit of an overstatement, sure I've had boxes with the occasional one plugged but getting 2 unsmokeable cigars out of 2 was very disappointing
Probably too little too late now, but Cubans (smaller ones especially) really do benefit from a lower RH prior to smoking. Try dry boxing to 58rh a day or two prior to enjoying.
I watch this with a semi, knowing I can't afford any of this and have to rely on infrequent trips to Budapest to stock up on half-decent new worlds like some budget airline peasant. Mourn with me brothers
I wonder how many times and by how many people these cigars have been handled, sniffed, breathed on etc, leaving who knows what residue on something you put in your mouth….
Don't you burn cigars? Kind of kills germs... Besides - the smoking itself is possibly something to worry over if you want to worry. How do you feel about eating at restaurants? That food (dishes and utensils) are very much touched - and worse.
@@brwi1oh, yeah they’re master blender left the company years ago… the product has suffered… the Chinese year of this or that animal are hot garbage… and China is a communist hell hole…. They’ve been surpassed on every level by small boutique companies that charge a fraction of the cost… Davidoff still thinks this is 1995… charging a premium based on their name alone… most of their blends taste like hay and grass… they are boring and out dated… and they know it

Indeed 😂
The Foulkes gentlemen single handedly fueled my obsession with lanceros and smaller ring gauges!
Totally agree! Its YT Gold!
Same I havent been right since lol
Agreed
That's what she said.

Nice to hear Kirby finally hitting puberty
Max's style is always spot on👌

We need more Foulkes!
Foulkes-wagon
Good Ol Mack fowks !
Mack Daddy Foulkes
Good call on the Monte Esp #2, great cigar.
Awesome you guys, just spectacular! Love watching these. The other 2 partner was excellent aswell
Im going to walk into Davidoff tomorrow and buy one of each of these.
Thank you Max
Max is the best!
The Especiales No 2 is one of my go to cigars. That and the Cohiba Corona Especiales are Daily smokes
👌😚💨 great stuff. I've been keen on some of the slimmer ring gauges for some time so obviously in agreement & I understand where Max is coming from w/ the Hoyo 1.
Love the Especiales No.2!
Love Max’s suit, and he has the mustache to match 😅
Classy 🥸
Max is the best. Every time I see him, he's got a new vibe!
Great
I smoked a monte especial no.2 about 4 days ago and it was a fantastic smoke throughout its entirety. Even with a newer box date.

Love this series
I’m curious about morning cigars. Most cigars are all after lunch and dinner cigars.
what do you guys think of the Montecristo puritos? thanks!
Well done gentlemen
Very kind! Thank you!
You can tell from the croaky voices that Kirby et al. have been hitting the humidor hard on this trip!
Pretty sure this is an old clip from around the coronation!
@@raymondberg7385 I can't see either of them losing their voices through their enthusiastic renditions of God Save the Queen'.
Lord the shades!
Kirby, you need a series dedicated to max

Ajay Patel was the one that finally taught me how to say it properly!
I wonder if anyone else notices how many times dear Kirby says "you know"
23 seconds since posted! Let's goo
bringing back the 3 button suits lads
Max faulkes has the positive attributes of his father’s personality minus the narcissism. Good chap
Good video
What model are those frames? 🔥🔥🔥
Lots of videos with Kirby's voice going out... Maybe time for a checkup Kirby.
"MACK FOULKES"

“Mac” Foulkes? He has a brother?
Freddie Foulkes! Just like his brother and father, he's another absolute legend! Make sure you check out their Nick Foulkes & Sons UA-cam Channel!

Not sure how you smoke cigars, but I haven't seen them touching the part that touches my mouth. The parts they do touch get touched by fire...
Don't you burn cigars? Kind of kills germs...

I'm sorry max, but what are those glasses
why does Max look like a 70's pimp?
;DDDD, the man got pizzazz!
Nice to look know the prices eg 10 gbp 20 upwards none of these nonsense cuban prices.
Is Max bisexual?
wtffffff is Max wearing?! Giving me Edgar David vibes lol
What about all the rings
@@Sa7biUK as much as I don’t agree with them, they’re not as bad as the g*y ass sunglasses lol
Davidoff is a shadow of its former self. The very definition of pretentious. Still, love any video cigar related, and Kirby is great.
Why’s that?
@@brwi1why’s what? Kirby makes great videos… you disagree?
