A tale of a Behike, Gran Reserva, Reserva and a hotel.
"Whilst Jimmeh and I smoked the Behike Ajay smoked a Partagas Salomon 155th Anniversary. He has been sitting on a few of these sticks for years apparently and decided tonight was a good excuse to smoke one. He said the start was not good at all, but after about the first inch or so (of a large cigar) he looked like he was a million miles away. The more of this particular cigar he smoked the more he fell back in love with it."

"In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock!"
Bit uncalled for isn't it Mokey66? Well if you are not there to give us cigars we have to find somebody else!

...just a tinsy bit green eyed - (sorry they only had brown eyed).
Back to the sticks. Is it fair to say something like the Behike (like all cigars) needs a couple of years to come into it's own. Is it unlikely that it will deliver close to its best so young?

I am open to correction with this- but the Behike uses tobacco (particularly the medio tiempo) from 2001,2002 and 2003 - in this current release I.e the batch from the dinner. Each batch will use newer tobacco so it will never be quite the same. Obviously an aged behike has the potential to be be improved but I think that the behike may be a bit of an anomoly as the only regular production cigar using aged tobacco.
