Hi ken :-)

I find the forum rather difficult to use compared to vbulletin based forums, but I managed to find the thread on the second page of results (tiny indication at the top that there are several pages of results) when searching for Trinidad extra here: http://www.friendsofhabanos.com/board_entr...id=34719#p34719

I heard the 2005 and 2006 Trinidad Robusto Extra are not as nice as the 2004s. I couldnt comment as we mostly get 2 or 3 year old cigars here in Europe. Maybe Rob has some input here? I found the cigars to have a slight greenish shade to them :-|

Just checked and took a pic of the box, very slight actually.

I will try another this week as soon as I shake a small cold.

I have not been impressed on the TRE I have had over the past 12 months. Construction has not been an issue, just a lack of a definitive flavour. Will see if I can find some late 05 / 06 offerings.
