You don't (semi)-retire every day! (No more management) so I'm firing up a Siglo VI

Despite being a massive cigar, it barely lasted an hour. Amazing all the same. A cigar for special occasions only at current prices I feel; £135 at CGars. I bought mine pre-cigarmageddon

How did you find it Rizwan? I've not tried those myself yet but love the brand.

I'm a huge fan of the brand too, and so when I saw it in the humidor my mind was pretty much set on trying it, despite all the other options available - and I'm glad I did. The cigar, despite its lack of age, had a nice amount of complexity. The transitions over time were very noticeable and kept me interested during the hour and forty minutes it took me to smoke it. The flavours were very much in line with my experience with other cigars from the brand, with dried fruits, cocoa and some spice (pleasant, and not overwhelming) all in the mix. Be interesting to see how/whether it develops with some age.

In honour of Stevieboy s semi-retirement (really? or is it just a demotion😝), I salute with this first batch Esmeralda - cheers old boy.🥂
