I was at a launch of two new UK brands at Cuban Cigar Club in Newcastle (plug!).
First off was something I never heard of, "Swag" 100% Dominican. It was ok - but at the price I think with so many options I'd select something else.
Next up the Rocky Patel "Royale". I'm a big fan of box pressed as it is and this was a lovely smoke. Great flavour profiles.
Finished off the night with a wee R&J short ... always good.

Just going through a "period", I suspect. Big rg CC are fickle creatures.mjolnir01 said:
I just smoked one Friday that only had about a year on it(thanks Jimmy!) and it was a similar experience. Tasty but lacking depth and subtle flavors.
I had a Perdomo Habano Robusto watching game 5 last night. Now there's a consistent flavor bomb! Nic cigars- gotta love 'em!!!

I didn't mean to give the impression it was bad - as I said, it was tasty. I dry box, too, and agree that it helps with many cigars. Large rg cc vagaries notwithstanding, I still enjoyed it and appreciated the walk down memory lane. The first box of CCS I bought was '05 Edmundos and I've liked them ever since. I just prefer stronger, smaller cigars now. So thanks again, brother!emoshun said:

I would also classify giving your nephew free reign to pick whatever as "priceless." I wish I had an uncle like you!What did he select?
John, he chose the Boli No. 2 Especial and he had free reign to choose. When friends and family come over this is standard practice and everything is fair game. However, he took home a nice care package.
I haven't been feeling to well lately and haven't smoked in over a week. This morning I chose something special from the humi and pulled out an excellent 02 Boli Royal Corona Centenary Selection. Only 100 humidors were made of these for the UK.
As we speak and enjoying it with one of my favorite Scotches a great brother here sent me (Thank you :thumbs
an awesome 2012 RA Eshmoun Lebanon RE.
For this evening I have an 04 Cohiba Sublime resting.
