Just finished my first CC - an aged Punch Punch

Started with a bit of a bite, but soon smoothed out to a velvety smoke.
Bready nutty deliciousness. Thoroughly enjoyed it, and loving the lingering flavors.

Thank you Steve02!!!

Nice way to kick it off. Punch Punch are among my favorite regular production Cubans.

Fortunately, they are exceptional even when fresh. I go through a few boxes a year. The last couple boxes have had fewer WOW surprises....but all still good.

14's-17's usually had two or three per box that had an extraordinary blast of caramel though the first third or half....nowadays, maybe one from every other box

PLPC '16 cab RGE May smoking nicely now

PLPC '18 cab LGR Mar - have tried a few and found weird construction and some burn issues. These were given the freezer treatment (as always) upon arrival but found one so far with a beetle hole.

Cross thread post. Cuz it was that good.

Diplomaticos - Smooth. Mellow. Nutty. Bready. Delicious. Whoa.
Previously, every connie I’ve smoked had a bitterness on the back end.
What some refer to as a “lemon zest”. What I call just plain bitterness.

Not this, or the Punch Punch before it.
Like entering a different realm of cigar.
My 2nd Cuban. Amazing.

Thank you Steve02!
I am infinitely appreciative X02.
Thank you Steve02!

I’ll tell ya fellas, these Cubans are really somethin’.
I’m thinkin’ they’re gonna catch on...

Playing tetris the other day and happened across a box of LFdC Asia Pasifico that I forgot I had....I figured after six years, they ought to be ready. I bought them becuase I heard they were nearly as good as LFdC UK, but cheaper. They were cheaper, yes....and excellent, though I don't think it came close to the UK from a couple years earlier.
