Was smooth, not much flavor and the last half was hard to keep lit so, didn't finish it. Will just leave them alone for another 6 months .... I’ve got a box with the same code, and ditto not much flavour. Certainly not the rich and complex smoke that VR can be. Not sure time will heal this, as it’s bland rather than too much of anything. Can’t win them all! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every once in a while you read a post here about someone's cigar that was meh - and after forgetting about it in the humi - they turned into good cigars. There was no bitterness and mine was mild / smooth with tons of smoke -- so at least if it doesn't end up improving in flavors it will end up a good give-away cigar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post StogieSteve23 Posted February 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2021 A few from this week. Fuente RSG, Custom Lancero from Ybor City, El Centurion, El Laguito E2 MAR-JUL-20, PLPC LGR-OCT-18 BTW: For any of you golfers out there (I know it's not quite the season for it in most places, but one of the perks of living in Florida), Costco (Kirkland) golf gloves are excellent. Cabretta leather, 4 gloves for $18.99. I've used the same one for the last 5 rounds, a few range sessions and haven't seen any wear/tear in normal areas. Worth every penny. Only downside is no cadet sizes. 27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish my game was like it used to be too. ☹️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kaptain Karl Posted February 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2021 Fantastic MSU 19 BPC this garage office has been amazing during the shutdown! I can only be in the office for 6-7 hours before my ADD crushes me. (Pre-COVID I’m out and about half of the day) I’ve started coming home late afternoon, lighting up a cigar or two and I can crush my remaining work in a different, more relaxed setting. Just awesome! 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s already heavy on telecommuting here! There’s a massive exodus from San Francisco/inner Bay Area to the outer Bay Area/Sacramento/out of state. Half of my team works remote and they’re actually more productive. There’s so many economic benefits, social benefits and environmental benefits with telecommuting that I truly believe we’ll never go back to what it was. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bri Fi Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 @Kaptain Karl yeah I’ve noticed it. I work in the Bay Area but live in el dorado county so the amount of commuting has gone way down. Still takes two hours to get home on a weekday though. And the housing market has exploded with people coming up here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rhinoww Posted February 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2021 @StogieSteve23 your review this week was an inspiration to revisit this box of PLPC. Glad I did, particularly given cooler weather I may be hitting on this cab a bit in the next month. Plenty to go around. UEB SEP 17 some say these are one dimensional. This box holds a few flavor surprises like Steve’s. Cat likes it as well. 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
