A little something for the weekend

[tommy_tucka]

The tabac in Puerto Pollens had a few nice boxes but the presence of my wife and lack of pocket money limited me to just a few purchases. First up was 7/25 H Upmann Mag 46 from April 2008 and a Super Partagas from the same year

I went back in later in the week and picked up 20/25 Mag 50 from December 2008, 4/25 Partgas 898 varnished box which doesn't have a date code and a box of H Upmann Epicures from 2013

I had to leave behind 20/25 Punch Punch from 2008 and in another tabac 9/10 Cohiba BHK 52. Didn't see any Bolivars anywhere.

Nice haul from there PeeJay. I guess I never found that shop as I didn't see anything like this in the ones I went in.

Its on the main road to Pollensa about half way between the roundabout by the marina and the big roundabout with the seaplane sculpture

If I hadn't blown the seasonal smokes budget in Amsterdam and then soaking up bits of GQs remaining stock, it'd almost (who am I kidding, it clearly would) be worth a little cigar voyage.

Very nice looking cigars, enjoy smoking them.

Nice finds Peejay, especially those Magnum 50's!

Left the BHKs? We're they expensive?

€32 each, they're not that good a smoke

Great looking haul PeeJay.

A question about the custom rolled Canozados from August, if I may? Is it just the size that makes them similar to the Siglo VI or are they made with a tobacco blend to give the same flavour profile?

They are supposed to be the latter but I haven't smoked one yet, I think [MENTION=13430526]Johnny Thunder[/MENTION] has, over to you John.

Very nice looking cigars, look forward to hearing all about them when you have smoked one.

Yes, John is correct, I have tried one.
I have never smoked a Siglo VI yet, but reading other reviews, it does appear that my smoke has a similar flavour profile.
Plenty of creamy smoke with definite hints of coffee. I do have a Siglo VI in the humidor, kindly gifted from John, but have
not found the occasion to smoke it yet.
