Yesterday I was looking for something in particular in my humidor.For the life of me I couldn't remember where I had put them so I am opening every box on the bottom shelf,the Habano shelf.I ran across 5 Boli Coronas Extra from 09.I had written it on the bottom of the RyJ EX #3 box after I added them and just forgot.Well this morning I grabbed one of them and fired it up,Flipping amazing........paired exceptionally well alongside my Guatamalen Antigua dark roast.In hindsight I should have bought 3 or 4 boxes....they were damn good young.

Oh what I was looking for.....a pair of Party Lusi's from 06 IIRC.Never did find the damn things.Maybe the next scouting mission they'll turn up.

I'm sure there's enough LFDs in there though.

The other day I was looking for a white owl grape and found a Gurkha black ops. Was so happy to not have to pay msrp for such a fine creation.

Yep,
Boli CE were some of the best cigars Habanos ever produced. Why they were discontinued, I cant fathom. Still have some left, but I am hoarding them.

Hoarder!!!! On a side note just bought a beginners home brew kit which came with an extract pale ale. When I get more versed may hit you up for some recipes. All grain really peaks my interest but worried about investment without ever brewing.

You got me thinking and I went searching in the big humidor and found 3 Boli CE's from 2000 and 14 Boli CG's from May 1998. Both good smokes I just had others that I smoked over these. Beer

It's the little things in life that make us happy. Nice treasure find.

Also reminds me, think I've got a few Lusi's from a few years ago on the bottom layer of one of the coolers. Might have to see if I can dig those up.

And I thought my sticks went deep.......holy sheep schit Batman.

As I recall Roman (Docrks) once told me any Habano from 98 is exceptional,he made it sound like they were the holy grail.

Enjoy my friend

Myself as well......probably 10-15 sticks left in a cab from 07.The #4 just never shined for me.Good but kind of boring.The #3 just seemed overloaded with these light flavors that just dance on the tongue.Much better cigar IMHO.
