So far in my cuban cigar journey I've found a couple of happy little islands. Party Shorts are where my capital is planted, it's from here that I venture out to the Montecristo island, or way out to Vegueros atoll. From the first Short I had, I was hooked, it's my perfect size and tasty and just perfect all around. The only tragedy is that I don't have a cabinet sleeping. Yet. Yet.
This was from a box of PSP's I picked up earlier in the year from our wonderful hosts. It hasn't been here long, I suppose this falls into my ROTT sample even though I've had the box a month or two.
First impressions - almost a boxpress on it. Heavy. Sheen. Heavy, did I say that? Tight.
I strayed away from my typical V cut and used the cuban crafter guillotine. Had I to do it over I'd have V cut. Good lord this thing is tight. And heavy. She's an early girl, these things need to rest for awhile. The burn was very nice and even, but clearly these are new and need to age more. Not quite Rob's mongrel, but tasty. Pepper. Some sourdough. Perhaps a tinge of coffee. Not harsh, but not mellow. A great short, but I CANNOT WAIT until this box has another year or two on it
