Popular Post markmurase Posted July 29, 2015 Popular Post Posted July 29, 2015 Tomorrow is my 50th birthday so I started the celebration 1 day early with a special cigar on my deck this afternoon. It was a fantastic winter afternoon in Brisbane - clear blue sky, light wind and about 20 degrees C. Nice to just relax for a few hours with my wife and enjoy a great cigar with one of my favourite drinks - Zacapa XO rum. It's great to be a member of FOH and thanks to all my fellow lovers of the leaf for making it so special. With El Pres having celebrated his 50th a few months ago, I'd like to think '65 was a good year 13

phreedh Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Congrats! I'll be in Greece celebrating my 40th in September/October. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to have a grand reserva of some kind too.
hellorockview12 Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Great choice and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Also, I wish our winter days were 20C!!!!!! Try 60 degrees less!
dflan82 Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Happy 50th Mark! Well done on starting the celebration early with an excellent cigar
El Presidente Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Happy Birthday mate! Pop up on the deck Friday and I will give you a cracker to celebrate!

Partagas Gran Reserva 29.07.15.png It was a fantastic winter afternoon in Brisbane - clear blue sky, light wind and about 20 degrees C.

markmurase Posted July 30, 2015 Author Posted July 30, 2015 Thank you to everyone for your birthday greetings. I look forward to catching up with many of our Aussie FOH at Havanathon in October. To Guy and our other international FOH, I do look forward to catching up with you sometime - hopefully on a visit to your part of the world. Hellorockview12, if visiting Canada I'll be sure to come in summer! As for the Partagas Gran Reserva, it did not disappoint. I've previously had a fantastic PSP box of Lusitanias (GOP MAY 08): every one was a 92-94 point cigar. The Gran Reserva was slightly better - I gave it 95 points. Similar medium bodied profile of Partagas spices, but with a little more sweetness and more complexity: including a few hints of licorice / aniseed, which I've never had in Partagas before. Cheers, Mark
markmurase Posted July 30, 2015 Author Posted July 30, 2015 Happy Birthday mate! Pop up on the deck Friday and I will give you a cracker to celebrate! Hi mate, I've got some visitors flying in tomorrow so won't be able to make it to the deck. Look forward to seeing you & the gang on the following Friday. I hope we can have a 50th celebration then.
luv2fly Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Happy Birthday! That is a great smoke to celebrate with. I am 42 and I am already thinking about my 45 and 50 cigar. Who knows...may be able to go to Cuba to celebrate if the powers that be get their head out their butts!
