Got a Trinidad Reyes all set and ready to go, first time i've tried these babies, I love the Coloniales and thought it was about time to move on (down)

Watch this space

[Boss Hog]

Havent decided finally yet but I'm thinking it could be a rocky patel decade or maybe even push the boat out with a Hoyo Dark Summatra. I've been eyeing that one up in the humi for a while now to be frank.
I guess I'm Frank Summatra !!

Yo welcome back Andy! Just bought me a box of those.

On a Monte PE (as always). I tell u what. They're so much better after a few months in the humi.

So here I am in my smoke shack absolutely loving the Trinidad Reyes, good lunch and a big design job despatched this afteroon so it's a sort of reward.

You guys have posted on it before and as I was early for a meeting yesterday evening (Well I say meeting, 4 pints of guiness and a risotto but who is counting) so I popped into the cigar department at Selfridges and had a good chat to a young man called Nic (crazy name, nice chap) and came away with two of these babies. Not cheap in there but I had to try them.

So here I sit in a good frame of mind (Tubular bells having given way to a little Richard Thompson) and I think I have found the new love of my life.

What a great little cigar, just right for me as a novice, great taste all the way through, not too strong for my juvenile taste buds and holding it's ash like a big boy, when I knocked off about an inch and a half it left a delightful little glowing nipple and on it goes like a thoroughbred

This is my new girlie I think, I shall always remember that blousy Siglo IV, a bit like one of those painted but just out of reach women all dressied in silk and diamonds in the American bar at the Savoy, nice but slightly out of reach. This is the cigar I want to come home to every night.

Hello darling, daddy's home. "I feel so good I'm going to break somebodies heart tonight"

This is great, will the fun never end?

Had tea, so now going to spark up a Punch Churchill out in the garden with a cold glass of white wine

What a bitch of a day....

Just had my first Juan Lopez Seleccion No. 2. Very pleasant. A beautiful mixture of subtle tastes drifting in and out, with a single powerful burst of a sweet spice about an inch in. I couldn't describe what it was but I want to experience it again. I have the feeling these are going to just keep on improving with age.

Glad you liked the Reyes Nic. They seem to pack an awful lot of taste into a small package. I love 'em too!

[Robusto]

I'm waiting for a batch of those very same, Nic...
