A Por Larranaga petit corona after my tea, nice smoke...
I await the day the cabs come back into stock at 1001. Gorgeous smoke.
As I've been enjoying the public house this evening, I grabbed a Cohiba Mini from my desk after falling asleep in front of this for 35 minutes. It was that or finish the holiday cigarettes which I'm trying to avoid doing.
Sy, Dave - I've had a few of these but wasn't very impressed but I've noticed a few of you lads saying how great they are. The few I tried were all from the same cab. What year are you lads smoking? Might be worth a re-try?!
PS Don't tell TJ I'm thinking of smoking a petit anything or I'll never hear the end of it :-)

I had a similar experience but persevered. Don't know the year as mine were all single purchases. The first I smoked was either overhumidified or plugged and I couldn't get fuck all out of it. The second was too dry or not enough humi time and tasted like salty paper. The third however (which I'd left in the humi for a few months), was how I'd read them described. My notes say 'Tight draw, excellent burn. Mild, smooth, light sweetness. Second third added toast. Last third added caramel into pepper. Get a cab when storage allows?'
Reviews on cigars-review generally seem to indicate they need a bit of age so who knows. In my seven months of cigar smoking there have only been a few OMG WTF IS THIS NEED MORE moments and the third PLPC was one of them. The only experience I've had like it since was with a VR Famoso. That said, I don't know where your tastes lie!

Hi Stevieboy
The Larranagas im smoking are from a cabinet of 50 with a box date of 06, they were in their cabinet for a year and then I transferred them to my humi were they have been resting ever since.
Definitely worth a re-try I would say mate, I'll PM you...
