A few weeks back there was a fair collection of aged stock up for grabs and I spent most of a week telling myself that saving for a home loan deposit was more important.
Whisky persuaded me otherwise.
So one Saturday night I snatched a box of Punch DC's. PAS MAR 01
With my head hung in shame I can honestly admit that I only found out that I had bought them the following Monday (haven't done that in a while ).
With a week of regret followed by two weeks of anticipation as they rested I can now say that this is one purchase that I really am over the moon about.
It's been a lovely sunny afternoon in Melbourne and I've spent the last two to three hours in utter bliss.
Smooth refined bellowing smoke that was all milk coffee and roasted nuts with a hint of citrus towards the back half. Leaving me with a ridiculously happy feeling knowing that I'll be sitting on another 24 of these babies for quite some time to come.
This isn't a review as such, just my view on the thrill of being a part of this community and being able to bid/buy on some seriously good cigars and being convinced of the fact that you can spend your hard earned cash on a box that you know you can have confidence in and enjoy immensely for a while to come.
With that said, to all new members who are thinking twice about joining in, whether it be LFTW or LFTH, 12:12, whatever, jump in (read the rules first of course), it really is a great deal of fun and enjoyment........ even if you can remember doing it or not!
Thank you FOH
