2017 plpc. No work today.
 

Wife seemed to have an epiphany when she overheard my buddy’s excitement when I told him the first layer of the roof was on an we would reportedly be dry in the rain. 

plpc is delivering. Even creamy goodness.

ROTT MAR MAR 20 Sig II. The first ROTT cigar I’ve smoked in awhile! Lots of lemon grass and some creaminess. Very smooth through the retro. The box definitely arrived wet so I’ll let these sit for another 60 days. One thing I've found with Sig II's is they have incredible smoking time for PC's. This one lasted almost 90 minutes.

RASS. Still trying to figure out what the deal is. It’s got 4-5 years in it. Not bad…but…not great?

2018 magnum 54 ( uncertain on factory and month) with ardbeg an oa

My favorite Davidoff regular production; for me their most complex too. In CC terms flavors hit my palette as a bold HU2/light P2 hybrid.

Now that things are largely back to normal me and a couple buddies finally lined up our first lounge night in over a year.

Iwan Ries Friday night Chicago if anyone wants to join!

ERDM Demi Tasse, 20 minutes, first third spice, and then honey and vanilla for the rest.

RyJ Petit Julietas 37 minutes, sweet cherry in and out with some more earthy charcoal type flavour.

2008 Punch Royal Selection no. 12. Still had a quite tannic woody flavour mixed with a fruity melon flavour. Had a bit of an oily fireproof wrapper and tunnelled a fair bit. Used @PigFish Cuban smash or smoosh technique. Only lasted about 40 minutes. Found it quite strong for a PC.

What’s this pigfish smash technique?

Pure MPE bliss…these have been resting for a year and are everything you look for and want in a Monte..love these

Totally agree had one earlier today with an Americano and it was great.

Bolivar Soberano El. Really nice. Will put the rest to sleep a bit longer. Still a bit too salty for my taste.

I live the Siglo II's.
They are the only Cohiba I stock on a regular basis.

Reasonably priced, extremely tasty and as you mentioned, nice smoke time (although I only get an hour out of them personally, but that's fine with me)

Have gone through quite a few singles and 3 packs from 2019 and 2020 and they have been consistently excellent in every regard.

I can't recall having any issues with a single one yet

I enjoy them, and usually have a couple on hand, but I also dont really feel they are anything special or amazing like the common hype would suggest.

Still a good smoke though

Good to see your mini review of them.
Just last month bought about 10 different Davidoffs and Zinos, most being new to me, including the Yamasa.

Montecristo is definitely my favorite marca by far, and agree the PE's are excellent, but I prefer the longer smoke time of the Edmundo and Double Edmundo personally.

The PE's are a little too quick of a smoke for me and leave me wanting more

Party Mad No.1 - TPO MAY '18

Haven't had many Partagas Maduros, as they have been extremely difficult to find in stock anywhere for a long time now, but love them whenever I can get my hands on them.

Would be awesome if Cuba added a couple more maduros to their offerings.

The Cohibas are just too pricey for the size imho, and aren't any better than the Partagas in my opinion

El Principe this morning.  A little breezy and burn is a little bit wonky, but it has always corrected itself.

RyJ Reserva Real Nicaragua Toro

Very smooth and very tasty, and excellent draw,burn and construction.

Would seriously consider getting more in the future.

'11 Montecristo No.3

Very tasty and had that unique aged flavor i mentioned in another thread.

Good burn and construction, but the draw was fairly tight even after several runs with my Modus.

Not bad enough to be a real issue though.

Definitely one of my favorite smokes, and they are even better with some age.

'17 HdM Elegantes

Very tasty and flavorful, with perfect burn, draw and construction.

A little age definitely suits these, as i just had a fairly fresh one recently to compare to.

Two days ago in Gent/Belgium invited to a cigar dinner of the Belgian Aroma de Cuba smokers club where I have good friends.

My first trip in 18 months and celebrating my second Pfizer-BioNTech jab 2 weeks ago.

A great location, Brasserie Latem, a Michelin starred Restaurant, the owner/chef himself a cigar smoker, ca. 30 Aficionados, superb Tapas dinner, 3 cigars and I was named "Honorary Extra Muros Member" of the Club. 

Excellent hospitality by all, very generous and a great atmosphere. Good conversations and exchanges. Lovely evening !

Certainly not my last cigar dinner with Aroma De Cuba.

Very cool.
Thanks for sharing.
Only lounge I have ever been to is Casa Fuente in Las Vegas and got to hang out and smoke a few with Carlito Fuente.
