  1. Hey guys/gals, You may be thinking, oh another one of these threads, but I wasn't 100% sure where to express all my thoughts. So, after spending the past 3 days in the roof of my house, removing all the ripple corrugated iron of the original ceilings, I thought I deserved a nice relaxing night. Called in sick for my overnight shift (incredibly sore back), I headed outside after tea for a Bolivar Petit Corona. Got the laptop setup to catch up on some TV shows, and got myself comfy. This was the 3rd one from this box (43 days in the tupperdor), I picked one out that had a slightly lighter wrapper than the others and got to it. I'm not going to pretend to know all the flavours, but the woody, leathery, creamy smoke it produced was absolutely amazing. The first 2 from the box (feb15), were good, perhaps coming on a little strong for my new palate, but still nice. There was something different about this one. From the first puff, I knew it was going to be good. As I was smoking through it, I found myself both getting lost in the cigar at times, and lost in my shows. The flavours all blended together so well. I think the fact that I was forgetting about the cigar, to me, says just how good it was. I was able to just enjoy it without thinking "wow, that was really woody/leathery/etc". And at other times I was thinking right after each puff, I want another and another and another. But I paced myself, I didn't want to ruin the experience, and I didn't want it to end too soon. The flavour changed most in the last 1/3 with the flavours picking up, and a tingling on the lips, and I enjoyed every last bit of it. As I got to the last ~inch or so, I was getting worried. It was ending. I wasn't letting it go without a fight. With my guillotine cutter in hand, I grabbed it by the head, ever so gently. It made a decent nubbing tool, with just enough space to get my lips around. Even this didn't prolong it enough for my liking. But, I'll be damned if I didn't try. Final smoking time, 1h25m. I could have gotten another one out, but I didn't want to risk tarnishing such a perfect cigar, on a great summers night. If the rest of them follow suit, I can already tell they won't last long, but I'll try give them a little more time, maybe another at 60 days. Perhaps I should get another box to lay down while I pick off this ones brothers and sisters. Well, that's my ramblings, I hope this helps some of you to reminisce about cigars that you've had, and to maybe pick up one that you you've been saving in hopes it will get better. Tonight may be the night. Cheers, Nathan
