Every odd Monday or so, several of us get together to enjoy some cigars and catch up. This Monday was a bit different. Alex had stood up and wanted everyone's attention. He was holding a box of cigars, which I couldn't make out. I figured he was going to make some announcement about something good that happened in his life and that cigars were going to be passed around. It turns out he was holding this. And it was a gift to me from the whole crew. Apparently this is something Keith started and he enlisted several other partners in crime. It was a token of appreciation to me for setting up various herfs and get togethers year round. A big Thank You to everyone involved. I am humbled and grateful for such good friends. Here are some shots of the Marquez in all its' glory. I must say, they are stunning looking cigars the aroma is all fruit and spice cake. These will get some proper sleep as the box code is very fresh. SGA SEP 16. I hope to sample one for next summer. Thanks again to everyone involved. It made my night.

Yesterday I opened this box after roughly a 5 year wait to see if the initial harshness had worn off (I tried one in the first year). Vitola: Hermoso No.4 Wrapper: Colorado The cigar had a Colorado wrapper and it showed in its flavor. Wonderful cream, some hazelnut and light toasted tobacco. Full flavored with great construction A great example of shining regular production. 8.75/10 Wonderful lighter nutty change of pace from the PD4 and the RASS?
