I have had some Partagas D4s sitting in the coolidor since Feb, I smoked one when they arrived and was nearly sick, however since that time they have settled nicely and this D4 I have on the go is great. They say the D4 has a sic period? they have got better, will leave the rest for another few months before trying again.
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot: Follow your spirit, and upon this charge Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'
cj, unsure about what it was? however on the 2 third, felt quesy and mouth watering had to stop? strange taste? No such issues with this smoke fantastic, loving it.

"In general, freshly rolled puros can be enjoyed within the first 40 days, but should rest for a year after that to allow them to get over the so called 'sick period."
As a rule, TJ never smokes a puro with less than a year on it.
But what the hell does he know!!!!TJ won't even draft his own posts.
Adios, Muchachos.
We are the Coros and TJ's off with that Mu'va Fu ing brujo don Juan again!!!

Trinidad Reye this morning, my first ever Trinidad.
Thanks to Daverave for posting them up.Great little cigar with a fantastic aroma and a real subtle taste, very enjoyable indeed and I would now like to try the other vitolas in the range.Ideal little smoke for the morning.
Been a While since i`ve smoked something of this size but I was impressed.

Great aren't they Whisk, I bought a couple more yesterday but have got to get a more regular supply sorted out at a good price and at the same time sort out my humidor, so much to do.

No worries-they are shockingly good for the size I reckon. I've found them incredibly consistent too. I did have one that was slightly harsh in Barcelona, but I reckon that was because I'd had it stored in a plastic bag with the top folded over for three days... Don't take too long to smoke either. Consequently I'm halfway through my first box already!
I had a Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto in what was left of the summer after work. I've had unpleasant experiences in the past with them so got a 3-pack to give 'em one last try. The first one of them was none too impressive so I left the other two in the humi for a while. The wrappers seemed to have darkened since then which surprised me, so I picked out the darkest.
Excellent construction, but the wrapper is a little delicate. Good draw, a little resistance-just right for my tastes. Minor burn issues but they self-corrected.
Had a glass of Canada Dry with it. Started out like cookies and cream, with a hint of biscuit which grew stronger throughout. About halfway through I got something familiar kick in, not sure but maybe leather?
Got more peppery in the last inch, which was a good time to stop as it was getting a bit chilly without a shirt.
I'm looking forward to the final one of the pack, but I'm going to give it a few more months.
You're right Dave...no other cigar that size is anywhere near as good. The Trini Reyes is the King of PCs....FACT!!!! (IMHO )
I've only 3 left from a 24 box and I've managed to track down the same box code from a reliable HK seller....very tempted just now but I've been spending hand-over-fist lately...I blame this place and you lot for egging on my affliction LOL

Mmmm, yuck mate. Like Dave was saying, could have been the nicotine, but you tasted something unpleasant too. Did you get hiccups by any chance?

I agree with the gang about the Trinidad Reyes. I've been enjoying them for years and even took a few sticks with me when I visited London for the inaugural puro walk (don't you remember senor Nic?)
But let me offer as a close second and always a staple in my humi -the San Crisitobal de la Habana Principe. And let's not forget the fabulous Cohibo Maduro Secreto. Both excellent Petit....errr, I mean small puros that are excellent morning smokes along side a cup of joe.
Names TJ, TJCoro, and I love the little puros.

I'll go with the SC Principe principle there TJ. Bought a brace in Belgium and whilst the first one smoked was in need of some R&R in the humi, lots of potential noticed and the second is nestling away nicely. Probably going to extracate it this weekend.
