PLPC not sure of year, guessing 08-12.

A box with singles that I hade forgotten about behind some other boxes in my cabinet. It held 3 boliva pc 2008, 10 mc #4 2010, 3 cohiba panetelas 2015, 1 mc medio corona 2015.

Had my yearly update of whats in my cabinet, I use a spreadsheet, and I snapped a photo of my singles-tray.

MC Tubos 01, fabulous smoke.

Bolivar PC -16 with a almost maduro wrapper. I have four boxes with the same box code and the same dark wrapper. Smoked well, however they need more time before they start delivering as they should.

So I sold my large cabinet a couple of months ago and bought a new Habanos cabinet. I am going to plug the holes in the back and maybe put in led lights. But here it is. It’s not up and runing and I still have all my cigars in plastic boxes.

Probably the cheapest and ugliest lighter I have. Still it’s what I always use, never disapoints and after 8 years it still spits fire relentlessly.

This week in cigars: Montecristo tubos 01 I think. Siglo III 15 Partagas Senior Coronas 15 Bolivar PC 16 All delicious.

Oliva Serie V Belicoso 2017 I have less than 50 NC, this is one of them. I like a Oliva or a Padron once in a while when I feel feed up with CC.

The cold draw is spicy, peppery and a bit hearty (abundant, rich, or flavorful enough to satisfy the appetite). First third is a blast of pepper, chili and that shallow, straight forward, strongness I usually find in nicaraguan cigars. Jacked up coffee, and maybe ceder? Second th

Yes, didn’t know the english name but yes that’ts the one!

Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo de Dauphin 1999 First from a box i got last year, got a hold on two boxes and today was the day to try one. Im a fan of smaller RG so I was looking forward to this. Started off bitter and very potent. A bit surprising for a cigar that is 20 years old. It reminded me of a strong creamy espresso, I’m more of a coffe with milk kinda guy but hey i’m not complaining. The draw was a bit tight so I took a he made easy draw and opened up the cigar. Second third had that balmy coat a lot of vintage cc usaly exhibits. The cigar lost in strength and settled down. Mild

2011, first from the box, just ok...

After some great paella, LGC RE Espana

PLPC 2015 - Same place as earlier, a bit colder though
