IMVHO,
Punch - boring as heck
Punch Bareknuckle - awful
Punch Deluxe - nh
Punch Gran Cru - had, but so memorable I remember nothing about it
Punch Gran Puro - did nothing for me
Punch Rare Corojo - only NC Punch I ever wanted more than once - esp in the little perfecto
Punch Rare Corojo 10th Anniversary - nh
Punch Uppercut -worse than the Bareknuckle

Wow fast response, that's a concise observation, maybe why I never picked one up again.:D

Punch Punch, although it's been years since I had one
Rare Corojo
Bareknuckle, although it needs some rest

I would agree with this. Taken quite a few shots at it too, as occasionally I would think I was overlooking them, or that they couldn't all be that meh. But trying another one would always end the same.

Einstein's definition of insanity - doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. So yeah, I don't try Punch anymore. :D

Must be why I haven't tried one for years :rolleyes:

I've always liked the Punch Rare Corojo in the rothschild size. Even though they are not rare and do not contain any Corojo.

No, they are not. :dr

Superfino. Best. RE. Ever.

I agree, wish they had made more.

Adding:

Punch Descobridores RE
Punch Petite Punch

and

Punch Necatres for the win

When I was a noob I remember the Punch Gran Cru to be an o.k. maduro.

Notice. OK.

The Rare Corojo and 1oth Anni Corojo are quite nice and pretty easy to get your hands on.

NC speaking, I enjoy the Gran Puro.
One of the few cigars that really pairs well with tequila.

Rare Crojo is pretty nice, too.

I see Punch getting a lot of "meh" reviews, with the word "boring" coming up quite often. I used to grab standard Punch Robustos I suppose because they were familiar, easy to find, and weren't bad. I'm curious to have another go at them now that I feel like I may have a (somewhat) more discerning palette.

That's the great thing about this hobby. There's never a shortage of new things to try, and the deeper you go, revisiting old smokes can be a new experience.

Ninfas. Aged Punch is also one of my faves.

I can remember back 10-15 years ago buying the NC punch rothschild maduro maduro's...they were pretty popular back then. Do people still like those?
