BBF 2017 last evening and a 2013 Sancho this morning

Happy to have got the chance to get hold of these. Away they go for a few years

Nice presentation.

Wish they hadn’t stopped making these. One of my all-time favorites.

Finishing off the work week at the home office with a SOP ENE 20 BBF and an old fashioned. Not sure if it’s the old fashioned but I’m getting some phenomenal burnt Carmel notes off the cigar that I’ve only gotten 1 time before with a BBF...years ago while I was drinking an old fashioned.

14 HUPC became very floral. Very nice 19 BPC needs more time this started very full for a Hdm but smoothed out nicely and a couple odds and ends

My first ever Diplomatico, box code unknown as it came from a FOH prize sampler ? Great construction, and enjoyable experience with a bit of creamy taste, tobacco and a slight hints of coffee. Unfortunately not much cocoa in this one, however, this may be due the colder temperatures here in Copenhagen. The cigar vent straight from 21C degrees in the humidor to -5C outside ? Would probably list the taste profile of this specimen a bit closer to the Upmann #2 rather than the Monte #2. BRC this afternoon (EPT MAR 16). A good old trusted friend ? Delightful; earthy, malty, hints of cocoa, coffee and tobacco. I'm happy to have stocked up a bit on these, and hope the '19 and '20 awaiting arrival from our host will be similar to this.

H. Upmann Replica Antique Humidor Supremas No.2 It was the last cigar I bought from my friend. The cigar was not looking good from outside, but perfect draw. I enjoyed this one in this very peaceful sunny afternoon. I mark this one 90/100, first half is better than second half. 从我的 iPhone 发送，使用 Tapatalk

‘19 D4 had strong floral notes along with the usual D4 profile. Fantastic.

El Pres and crew coming through! Thanks FoH. Haven't heard anything about the BUP factory. Anyone have any knowledge about it?

Down under delivery earlier this week fantastic and some back ups

BBF TUA SEP 20

These arrived on a chilly morning (-23°C) so no beetles to worry about. Lovely Cohiba aroma. SOR OCT 20

Partagas Aristocrats in a fresh batch of snow. Nice Partagas spice I hadn't got in my last few Partagas cheap and cheerfuls. @Akela3rd I'll probably be smoking some Rafael Gonzalez Perlas and/or Petit Coronas soon for the same reason ? Edit: smoked a PCE thanks @VKUTT for the suggestion. Less spice more sourdough some earth. Seems they do need some more time. I'll smoke the aristocrats and maybe leave the PCE for later. -15C 5f but not windy. Sparked a new friendship with a BOTL up north who can't smoke because it's -30 so I have to toughen up. ?

I received a wonderful surprise this week, from a friend on another forum. He has a collection of Vintage cigars dating back over a hundred years. We had discussed some of the cigars I was familiar with from the 60s and 70s,and he sent over a surprise package. I did not expect it, but he also included five cigars from the 40s and 50s. The biggest surprise? The RyJ tubo he sent was the first CC I ever smoked, way back in the 80s. I hope you enjoy looking this site over, it is a bit of history that amazes me.

How’s this? The RASS in adopted wooden box to sit for awhile. After seeing some other threads on aging ( I’m still new to cc’s ) anyone have any extra wood cabs laying around willing to wipe out dates and codes on the boxes for me to age some other gars in? Took all mine out of cardboard and lying in tupperdors for now.

Was able to purchase the Partagas P1 Jar it's my favourite Jar! It will live on top of my Avallo Humidor that's being built. It will be used to dry box cigars. It's empty btw....

Celebrating the Lunar New Year of the Ox with SCDLH La FuerzaIt is one fine cigar now and should be even better with a bit of age. Just unsure if I can wait that long. Maybe it’s time to load up.

The problem with these threads is now I’m gonna drop close to $500 snagging a box of Hoyo DC’s next time they’re up??‍♂️?

C&C to start the day. Happy Chinese New Year everyone. Kung Hei Fat Choi

HUP C1 GEM Jun/19 & SC EP LGR Dic/20 Not so good looking El Principes with actually 4 with damaged wrappers...

PSP Epicure 1 UEB SEP 19. First from the cab. Very unlike other Hoyo’s I’ve had! First third has been semi sweet cocoa, raspberry and a little cream. Lots of flavor. This will be a heck of a box! This has been one of the best cigars I’ve had in awhile. The raspberry/chocolate is epic!

Gong Xi Fa Cai! Wishing everyone a healthy, prosperous and safe New Year!!

H Upmann PSP awesomeness from our illustrious host...and some dark and oily Sancho Panza Belicosos.

Revisiting an old friend that I haven’t kept in my regular rotation in a long time, courtesy of @BigGuns. I don’t know why I stopped buying RASS but this one reminds me of the good times I’ve had smoking these. The beer isn’t bad either!

Blanton's straight from the barrel, bookers country ham and Hancock's president reserve.

Killer mail call today all of the PSP/HQ category! BSM JUL 20 VRF’s that’ll go down for a quick nap and SOR OCT 20 Siglo II’s that’ll go down for a long nap. I could smell the Famosos before even opening the box, one of the most fragrant boxes I’ve ever opened ROTT! For those who have em, how have the 2020 Siglo II's been smoking young? Worth even trying one within the next year?

Chun jie kuai le!

We have a Seonal, which is quite similar to Chinese New Year in Korea @Fuzz ?. Happy new year folks!

Today’s unknown cigar. Got this one as a gift, but even the owner cannot tell what is this. HOYO DE MONTERREY DOUBLE CORONAS GRAN RESERVA COSECHA 2013 Last cigar before Chinese New Year. Hope everyone a prosperous 2021. Two cigars a day, makes me a happy boy. Double happiness to celebrate Chinese New Year. Churchill Bar all by myself. 从我的 iPhone 发送，使用 Tapatalk

Another cigar while I was on vacation, Edmundo Dante Exclusivo Mexico

Cold but not to bad in the sun for a short cigar so I grabbed a POU MAY 12 HQ Siglo I. Definitely stronger than the larger Siglo’s even when this old. These have the legs to get a lot older. Great cigar. Tonight a UTE MAR 17 PSP RASS from a cab. Dark and oily goodness. Only had to ash it once and that was only because the smoke output started to go down.

Hanging out with these hustlers again, trying a stick for the first time...not too much going on yet. Cheers, FOH!

Mag 54 BRE DIC 19 while watching Apocalypse Now for the Who said that competition. Mag54 was unremarkable, tight draw with basic tobacco notes and a lingering harshness. Movie was pretty good, surprised on how long it was for an old film! Got 3 more to watch - I plan to watch all the movies since they seem like classics that I should watch.

Very pleased with the results of this purchase...wish you could smell these.

Quarter pack of LTO Sep 2020 Cohiba Coronas Especiales courtesy of our host...

This is my second lucky week! Look at what the postman delivered today!!! ? This is the fourth (two this week) shipment to arrive of my pyramid / torpedo buying spree in January. ?? They look and smell amazing!!! It is going to really hard to not smoke one until they get acclimated and especially because the Montecristo No. 2's are getting such high accolades from our host and a number of other people that I respect their opinion on the 2019 and 2020 stock. Especially since these Montecristo No. 2’s have the same factory code and year “SMA 19” as the review that our Pres and Ken did last year and they gave those Montecristo No. 2’s that they were smoking a 95 score ?? And these are less than 2 years old too and I usually do not smoke any of my cigars until they are at 3 -4 years aged but I will definitely smoking one of these after they get acclimated in about 60 days. ? Also in 60 days it may finally be warm enough to smoke a cigar, Hahaha ?

So I wonder if this is going away. I hope not https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2014/04/why-every-member-of-congress-gets-a-monthly-porn-delivery/437454/
