Last night as the ladies in the shop were doing some light spring cleaning in the humidor, Tere knocked an open box of Trinidad Robusto T Jun '09 and one of the cigars fell to the tile floor, a distance of 3'. We were all just standing there, Tere made a big fuss about checking the cigar and the other girls laughed at her. She found a 1/4 inch horizontal tear in the wrapper near the cappa. She started to cry. I told her not to worry. I would smoke it and everything would be alright. She was unconvinced. I was forced to go out of the humidor and into the lounge and smoke the Trini.
It was a fantastic cigar. This beauty lasted me almost 90 minutes, despite my determination to inhale it like a robusto, in 50-60 minutes. It took the cigar about 5 minutes to convince me to sit down and enjoy the ride. It started with mild notes of honey and raisin, then it gained some leather and spice, and it was super firm. It was relentless, despite a 7-2 drubbing of the NY Mets, by the Marlins, I was able to find pleasure in this inspiring cigar. The last 1/3 was like eating a Greek pastry, philo dough covered with pistachio and drizzled with honey while drivinge a race car, all hot and assertive without being whiny. .
During the entire smoke, Tere fussed over me like a candystriper at a veteran's hospital. She refilled me Guinness several times and wouldnt get the hell out of my hair.
Still, it was my favorite cigar of the week.
Cheers,
