Well just had a nice meeting with PJ as he came to collect the display humi and brought me a nice bottle of red wine many thanks
Had a great chat while having an early smoke a RG Cigaritto for me and I cracked open a cabinet of Hoyo Petit Robustos for him to try 2011
Sent him home with a SLR Lonsdale 98
Great to meet more forum members
Safe drive home mate

Yep, Martyn sure can chat! Thanks for the hospitality and cigars mate, the humi will be in my den later. I can recommend the HdM petit robustos as an excellent morning smoke thank you.

I love HDM PR's haven't had any in a while

[Sean]

Been wondering how they compare to the bigger brothers

[SilentBOb]

Had one a few weeks ago, thought it was a fantastic early afternoon smoke.

HDM have become my absolute favourite brand, keen to try some more of there smaller smokes.

Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos Cigar....Love this smoke so much I bought a box The taste, retrohale and sweetness are exquisite

Keeping the Hoyo love going I sparked up an Epicure DeLuxe.
The photos don't do this baby justice, the most perfectly even rolled cigar I've seen.

Risky pic (left) lol I'd been crying if it hit the floor lol Charlton Heston from planet of the apes style [emoji12]

And got to agree with silentbob and still only fairly new, I have been drawn to the HdM's the ones Iv had have stood out!

Can confirm from personal experience Martyn has the gift of the gab, as the Irish would say Also that he is indeed an excellent host & probably why he makes such a good landlord/ Golf club manager. Petit Robustos were decried by many at the outset for burning too hpt (drawslowly) but indeed are an excellent shorrtt smoke.
Today, last day of Greek hols tried to catch up abit on cigars smoked. Started with a Punch Italian RE 2005, really nice & a Esplen' from pre-2003' ie olLD label. I punched, dble punched & then it but then gave up as too tight to smoke. Changed to a VRUnicos from 2001 gifted from fellow member Van. Great smoke in the beach, with whisky, ice & a little water. Hoping the Cohiba No 3 from the same era, will be OK tonight

One of the nicest cigars I've smoked this year. RyJ Cedros de Lux No 3. On a green band so pre-2008. Starts cider and cream fruits and becomes progressively more winelike with light wood notes towards the end. Strangely I got no impression of Cedar, but the wood wrapper must have done it's ageing work because the cigar was superb.

The cigar came as a single from Simon at mysmokingshop.co.uk last week along with some 03 un-banded Partagas SdC No 3. The Cedros don't get a lot of praise on here — but believe me if you can get a green bander you're in for a pleasant surprise!

Started with this


But didn't like it so moved onto this



Which was much better, but not stellar..
Think I need something else later, but don't know what to have...

Could not agree with you more Tippexx on the Cedros Deluxe No.3. Beautiful cigar. Have had several times and it has always been a must repeat experience
