Finally got my hands on some LUB...

[Ardan]

It took a few attempts, but I was finally successful. Going to rest for a few months and then share these with close friends and family for my 50th birthday. Now I just need to pair it with a good whiskey or other alcohol. Any recommendations?

I was surprised how dark the wrapper is, especially when I compare it to some other Partagas I have in my humidor. Also I wish could bottle the aroma when I first opened the box.

Love the Presidente with a good rum. Diplomatico 18 works for me.

A 10-count of LGR Jun 2018 Romeo y Julieta Petit Royales singles...

Great box date. My personal thought on these RyJ Petit Royales is that they are part of Habanos S.A.'s effort to put good tobacco into smaller formats. I just revisited one of these last week with a newer box date than yours that was savory and had that R&J cherry note developing nicely... 🤷🏻‍♂️😚💨

The wrappers on those numbers 3s look nice. 👌

Had an awesome BOTL fulfill a HTF ISO on another forum. These Boli Simones are awesome, and I'm glad to even have 5 more. 

That same BOTL offered me a partial box of some 2018 Connie Bs. I've heard great things about the early release of these, so I'm excited to try an example from that time. The wrappers are darker and have a nice sheen and the smell is absolutely intoxicating. Much different in appearance than my 2022 cab. I'm thinking they're gonna be bangers. (forgot to snap a photo of the sticks but will update at next chance.)

And they smell amazing 😍

I've been looking for those for a while and my wife was just passing by a B&M i've never been to and said to herself "My husband is so amazing, i should go in there and with any luck, find him some good cigars, he deserves them so much", well, so she says 😁

They also have 3 boxes of PL Prometidos but i've heard only below average things about them so far so i'll let them sit there...
