Not a fan of box pressed cigars. However I randomly buy a smoke when I visit a lounge. If I see a new world by AJ Fernandez I usually grab it, probably the only box pressed I’d buy.

But I’m not a box pressed fan at all, even with habanos I’d i can avoid a dressed box I always do.

I have learned to tolerate mild box press, but a firm box press I very much dislike. If it has corners, I just won’t smoke it. The worst though are the oval or flat press, like the San Lotano Oval is the Herrera Esteli Norteno. What a horrible concept.

It makes little difference to me. Actually just picked up a 10 box of AB Tempus on cbid, mainly because some jackass kept out-bidding me on the normal round ones.

I don't mind them, but I also do not really prefer them. Draw is a bigger deal to me, and I can't recall a difference in draw with any box press I've smoked.
