Boli Libertador...Luz all the Boli's!!

Smoked a Vegas Robaina Classico from 2000 (at work now don't have the box code) from when Buckwheat bombed me when I was a super noob (now I'm just a normal run of the mill noob).

I don't think I ever would have smoked it, except for I was checking out my cigars, and noticed some white mold on the cap area (no, that ch1t is not plume, lol).

Anyway, looked at the surrounding cigars, no mold, so I said, I guess it's time.

Wiped it off, gave it a chop... was a little on the plugged side, so ran the draw poker through it, and fired it up. Had to work it for a few, but once it started smoking well, the flavors started booming.

I wasn't expecting to particularly like it, because other ancient smokes I've had have been too mild for my liking, but this one, despite it's lack of strength had excellent flavor.

It was an amazing smoke, and earned a spot on my all time list.

Thanks Buckwheat, enjoyed it.

I Have come across some people referring to the abbreviation AM. I think it is a Cuban custom roll. Can anyone help me out with what that stands for? Thanks.

Alfredo Martinez custom. Excellent cigars. Love the robustos!

2150...

not all, but in some of the VR's I've smoked I tasted honey. Never in any other cigar brand.

Thanks srh

2151 - H. Upmann #2 - can't recall the date, but this box is coming along nicely
2152 - Party Series D5

I often get strong hints of graham cracker sweetness in certain cigars that could also be described as honey. Can't say I have found it in VRs but ERdM Choix, QDO and esp in LGC Medaille D'O series.

Just had a Punch Punch '14 - no sweetness but a nice smoke with a hint of citrus tartness

2153 - Oct 13 Part 898 last night. I wouldn't call it boring, necessarily, but it definitely needed a LOT more time in the humi...surprisingly one dimensional...the bit of edge on it overwhelmed the subtler aspects of 898 that Ive come to expect

The sweetest cigar I've smoke by far is the 07 Por Larrañaga Robosto de Larrañaga Asia Pacific RE. Ooooozes with honey. One of my all time favorites. Like smoking candy. Amazing cigar. Picked up a fiver from a BOTL on another board and bought 2 more boxes. Only 2 cigars remain#-o
