Woke up early to start smoking a pork but. Decided while I’m at it to have an HdM DC while everyone is still asleep.

Trinidad Vigia - April 18

 

It’s a beautiful Sunday morning here in north central PA. I’m enjoying a superb Trinidad before heading out and dealing with the Little League World Series traffic.

Review PSD4 weekend

 

 

PLMC ROTT. Real firm draw but hesitant to ram a PD tool into it. Besides my fingers find a plug close to foot. A profound sweetness to start. Cheers

MSU AGO 18 Partagas Serie E No. 2. Very nice Claro wrappers, the construction is excellent and the burn has been almost perfectly straight. I’m getting all the flavors that I enjoy from a good Partagas. This is the second out of this box of five and both have been exceptional. MSU seems to be quite a good code from what I’ve seen here on the forum. I have some UAO with darker wrappers so I’ll have to pull a box of those out and see how they compare.

Just fired up a 2010 VR Unicos

 

 

Round 2. A 2015 JL2. Fruity profile right off the bat. Haven't smoked one in years

Juan López Selección No.2 MEL Dic 2016

The Juan Lopez Seleccion No.2 has been a forum favourite in the last 2 years, having enjoyed a resurgance only bettered by the re-branding of the Quai d'Orsay marca. I tend to find them a little too strong for my liking when in their youth, although today's example seemingly 'turned-a-corner' from this box.

Despite being two-and-a-half years old, the first third of this cigar was the first time I got such a strong orange citrus and chocolate flavour from the 'get-go' out of four cigars smoked from the box. My palate very much connected with this profile. Towards the end of the first third I got an uneven burn develop in the wrapper and unfortunately it didn't self-correct this time, so I touched it up, but thankfully I needed no more re-lights. At this point I picked up strong notes of white pepper and espresso coffee, although still with a little orange citrus and chocolate. The final third was all toasted tobacco and it got a little more intense in flavour delivery, yet I still had no issue smoking this down, I didn't finish it early as overall it was a good smoke.

With a quarter of the box consumed (as I have given away three for other cigar enthusiasts to enjoy), I can safely say that these need more time down for me as the cigar was medium-full to full in strength in the back half and I much prefer them milder. I look forward to re-visiting them in a year or two.

Beautiful! I have one from 07 that I might as well go ahead and consume. It should be in its prime...

What's left of a CORO from 08, and a damn fine smoke it was!

HU #2 Reserva, one of the best smokes I've had in years, as it should be. The aroma of the smoke is amazing, like sweet cedar/nutmeg and cinnamon.

Just back from a vacation and along the way I picked up a Juan Lopez Supreme ER Canada 2011 at a cigar shop. I’ve had and have a number of different Canadian regionals but I wasn’t even aware of this one. About a third of the way in and it is very good so far. Makes me think I should be aging JL2’s longer.

Watching the Chicago air show today featuring the Blue Angels. Really enjoyed this 2012 Perlas from @THEMISCHMANduring the show. 

 

Breakfast: fresh squeezed OJ, Big Shoulders Columbian pour over, CPV MAR 01 Monte No 1 generously gifted by @Buck14.  Proper way to start the day. 

[BoliDan]

Plpc to end the week.

Very young Punch Preferidos RE 5ta Avienda. It's promising, but definitely needs some time.

Change of pace. This was gifted by a very generous BOTL.

I am with you on these, I think they need more time down. I have the exact same box code and date and about half way done. Given several away and smoked maybe 4-5. They do seem to be improving but I get too much pepper for my liking. I am always wondering if I got a dud box as so many on here talk about how good they are, even with younger box codes.
