VR Famoso (BSM NOV-19) - first one out of the box after ~ 6 months in the humi.  Was smooth, not much flavor and the last half was hard to keep lit so, didn't finish it.  Will just leave them alone for another 6 months ....

I’ve got a box with the same code, and ditto not much flavour. Certainly not the rich and complex smoke that VR can be. Not sure time will heal this, as it’s bland rather than too much of anything. Can’t win them all!

Yup, but one can only hope!  Every once in a while you read a post here about someone's cigar that was meh - and after forgetting about it in the humi - they turned into good cigars.  There was no bitterness and mine was mild / smooth with tons of smoke -- so at least if it doesn't end up improving in flavors it will end up a good give-away cigar.

 A few from this week. 

Fuente RSG, Custom Lancero from Ybor City, El Centurion, El Laguito E2 MAR-JUL-20, PLPC LGR-OCT-18

BTW: For any of you golfers out there (I know it's not quite the season for it in most places, but one of the perks of living in Florida), Costco (Kirkland) golf gloves are excellent. Cabretta leather, 4 gloves for $18.99.  I've used the same one for the last 5 rounds, a few range sessions and haven't seen any wear/tear in normal areas.  Worth every penny. Only downside is no cadet sizes.

A RASCC yesterday in the cold.

A Cohiba panetelas and a Monte joyitas in relative warmth as the snow was melting a bit today.

Steve - I too use those gloves and I completely agree, best bang for the buck out there! 
(ps. Grow some man hands and you won’t need to worry about the cadet sizes!  Ha! Just giving you a hard time...)

Nice cigar lineup and agree on the gloves. They are like old school Titelist gloves used to be. I wish my game was like it used to be too. ☹️

Sir Winston from 2019 just glorious. Needed a treat before we go into the arctic freezer this weekend.

Davidoff millennium. I got this box in 2017. They are smooth but no flavor. Pretty much how I feel about all Dominicans. No flavor

Fantastic MSU 19 BPC

this garage office has been amazing during the shutdown! I can only be in the office for 6-7 hours before my ADD crushes me. (Pre-COVID I’m out and about half of the day) I’ve started coming home late afternoon, lighting up a cigar or two and I can crush my remaining work in a different, more relaxed setting. Just awesome! 

[Bri Fi]

@Kaptain Karl makes me think if many offices will reopen or if everything will be telecommuting from now on. 

[J-Slay]

Really fine Coloniales. Recent production single. Haven’t had to reach for the Perfect Draw in quite a while.

It’s already heavy on telecommuting here! There’s a massive exodus from San Francisco/inner Bay Area to the outer Bay Area/Sacramento/out of state. Half of my team works remote and they’re actually more productive. There’s so many economic benefits, social benefits and environmental benefits with telecommuting that I truly believe we’ll never go back to what it was. 

[Bri Fi]

@Kaptain Karl yeah I’ve noticed it. I work in the Bay Area but live in el dorado county so the amount of commuting has gone way down. Still takes two hours to get home on a weekday though. And the housing market has exploded with people coming up here

@Paso I had a 5er from around that time, doesnt compare to the 19 stuff!

[Rhinoww]

@StogieSteve23 your review this week was an inspiration to revisit this box of PLPC. Glad I did, particularly given cooler weather I may be hitting on this cab a bit in the next month. Plenty to go around. 

UEB SEP 17
 

some say these are one dimensional. This box holds a few flavor surprises like Steve’s. 

Cat likes it as well.

C&C Partagas E2 UEB MAR 19. A fine smoke no doubt. A long rest in the Humidor has served it well.

Just got my first vaccination.

Perfect winter smoke.. ROTT
