Nice little Cuaba Divinos - my box of these has many tight ones in, but they open up when they warm up a little. Really nice, one of my go-to short smokes

Partagas TPC 1998, & I've made some review notes!

Cuabas generally are a slightly neglected brand. We stashed some of the Generosos from 1997 production (when they were still free hand rolled) and they are smoking beautifully now...

What do you mean 'free hand rolled'? They are still hand made aren't they? Can't see a machine coping with them.

The original lot were made totally free hand but this proved too difficult for producing identical looking cigars. As a result they started to use mold presses to prepare the cigars and to ensure uniform shapes.

All are still hand rolled but many people consider the original Cuabas to be superior due to the very skilled rollers needed to produce 'free hand' figurados. Still a subject of debate though...

Hope this helps
