Custom Cubans

[whisky77]

I had some Robustos rolled for me while in Vinales, they were cheap as chips and not a bad little smoke at all.

I've tried a few customs from a couple of different rollers and found quite varied results. A5 has already been said, it depends heavily on the leaf used and also, how recently they were rolled. I've been told that cigars fresh from the table should be smoked within a week or two and if not, should then be left for about a year to settle. I haven't tested this hypothesis yet tho, so don't know for sure.

Def something to keep an eye out for or to ask after though!

But beyond that, the young guns need time to mature a bit - no less than one year is the general rule here . And in case you haven't heard, this is what so-called aficionados commonly refer to as the "sick period!"

Knewbee Alert: In my next post, we'll discuss what causes the dreaded "sick period." drunk2.gif
