    A special one for me today; My first Behike (52).

    It's undeniably a first class cigar, but like I expected it's still disproportionately overpriced hah.

    I'd had it sitting away for just over 10 months, but although I've read that they're fantastic right off the shelf, I think a couple years would have refined it.
    Perfect draw, even burn, and a good complex taste throughout.

    It had a predominant taste of what I can only liken to burned wood, which gradually progressed to roasted chestnut, with the occasional light notes of cream as well as perfume. Right at the very end I was getting a little bit of caramel. I was really impressed with how it never got even the slightest bit sharp or bitter, even when its length was the same as its girth.

    I was fortunate to have my first on Saturday (had it stored for 6-months).
    The draw and clouds of smoke were mind blowing.
    I found it a mild smoke, although I got a slow nicotine kick from it about a third in
    Flavours were hay-like ...

    I'm looking to invest in a 10-box as I really enjoyed it!

                Can you still get those? If so, where?

                  Finished early today and went back to the work digs for a birthday smoke, bought a 2010 RyJ SC as I had a tube for it.
                  Was a bit of a lesson to be honest, bugger all smoke coming out so I kept puffing away like a nutter, ashed to reveal what can only be described as an ice cream cone so I cut it and started again with a bit more patience. Really enjoyed it on the second attempt, wish I'd bought a Churchill.
                  Here's a photo before the misbehaviour

                    Well then, I guess they're not the shit sticks some once believed them to be.

                    I guess it's true then...even NCs can improve with age, unlike some people I know.

                    So, in a show of solidarity, I'll join you today and spark an 8 year old Punch Rare Coro myself ? The Rothchild!

                        Ah, so I'm guessing that branding is only NC.

                          Sat out in the garden after dinner, catching up on emails and pretending to do some work. All the while sipping a nice G&T (Plymouth gin, naturally), and enjoying an LFdC Short Robusto. Possibly the 'weakest' I've had from the cab so far, but still a jolly good smoke.

                            Were you after the band were you? Yeah, that's the NC partagas band/logo.

                              Lol, no I wasn't just after the band. I thought it might be a small range of Party's that I hadn't come across yet. Are all NC Party's black banded then?
