Similar experience to a flavorless Magnum 46 from 2019 I had a few weeks ago. Starting to worry. Edit- last half it came alive. But the first half just had nothing going on. Anyone else experience this? I find that PLPC needs some time for the flavours to come together. Let them sleep for 5 years and then fire one up. A world of difference. Hope this helps.

Yes I am aware that these are meant for aging and was by no means expecting a great experience. I just thought it was odd that the first half of the cigar was almost void of flavor. Good news is that it was beautifully constructed and did not require one touch up! Razor sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BlueRidgeFly Posted June 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2020 Connie 1 FOH clearance, with a Tröegs La Grave Beautiful evening tonight with a Trinidad Fundadores ARS SEP 19, FOH PSP. Beautiful wrapper and construction but never really got going. Very mild, some flashes of really good in the middle... might be an aberration, but probably more rest needed. 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LLC Posted June 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2020 Yesterday I had a TOS NOV 16 PLMC and TOS FEB 16 PLPC. I don’t have as many PLMC’s just due to the size not being one I enjoy as much. Both good but the PLPC was better with a lot more Caramel. Earlier today I enjoyed a custom Robusto from Alex while watching a reply of yesterday’s launch. Good flavors and perfect construction and burn. Picked up a couple of bottles of Cognac meant for pairing with with cigars. The cognac was originally blended with the help of Alejandro Robaina. So tonight I had a excellent MUR AGO 13 Bolivar Libertadores first with an Americano and then a glass of the cognac. Cognac was very good considering I normally find the first glass from a new bottle of cognac or a premium rum is usually better after the bottle has been open for a month or so.

We live in Minneapolis just down the street from the 3rd precinct that was destroyed and where many businesses were looted and burned to the ground. National Guard are in our neighborhood and we have military helicopters nonstop and the sounds of tear gas and stun grenades being fired. Hard to explain to my 11 year old daughter. It’s heartbreaking and so very sad to see our neighborhood and wonderful city being destroyed..for those members in LA, NYC, Chi Town and all over be safe!! My heart breaks for you and all of those GOOD citizens out there. I have many close friends and colleagues just outside the twin-cities/living in Minneapolis and I cant begin to explain how angry and sad I am for you all. I feel horrible for you having to try and explain this to your daughter and hope this is not something that will effect the rest of her life in a negative way. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post StogieSteve23 Posted June 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2020 Finally got back to my happy place for 4 hours yesterday. The No 54 was just what the doctor ordered. Alex BHK-56 this morning. Gotta say, this has been the most frustrating bundles of customs I've smoked. Nearly everyone so far has been plugged. 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted June 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2020 Vegas Robaina Famosos AEM May 2015 Vegas Robaina...it's not exactly a marca that would be in your rotation right now, right? Did you know that supplies of the Vegas Robaina Unicos (yes, the piramide) were in hiatus in 2019 and the Famosos was low? Probably not, but if you do manage to smoke a Famosos, Unicos or dare I say, a recently-discontinued 2017 Double Corona Don Alejandro, maybe you might be interested in seeking these out! According to our FoH Forum, recent 2019 Famosos has been smoking very, very well. This Famosos was very much like the rest of this box thus far, which is to say, simply sensational! At just on five years of age, these are continuing to be in their prime for my tastes. Yet again, the raisin-sweet/licorice and cocoa flavours intermingled with some baking spice around a luscious grass core signified some 75 minutes of pure smoking pleasure. I can see myself seeking to acquire another 2019 box and soon! 33 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
