Does anyone have a couple of these they would be willing to sell please? Looking to dip the toe in, before possibly plunging:smoke:

I don't have any here, but I have enjoyed one! Not that that helps you much!

You could always sell me the memory, to see if they measure up Andy:der::p

Hi Cj
Not sure what I have in the Humi I have some (I think) from pre 2000(sweet pudding) and also from 04/05 (not quite so mellow yet but nice) ....If I have a couple spare, I'd be happy to swap them for something of your choice, I'll have a look tonight.

I'm sure the 04/5 would do nicely Steve:smile:, although I'm not a man of massive stock range. Send me a PM later if ok?
Thanks for getting back on this one.

The first inch wasn't much to write home about Joe, but you do instantly get that lovely familiarity of a Cuban. Second third built up, but as I've commented earlier, flavours aren't as apparent as one would intially expect from looking at these. The last third increased in this respect. With the vitola, a slightly tight draw was evident, but I worked it out once the stick warmed up. I'm a bit poo at tasting notes, sorry.

Analysis.
Appearance? Great.
Construction? As above.
Flavour? Left me wanting a wee bit more.
Partagas profile? Subtle.
Would I have again? Yes.

Again, thanks to Steve for the opportunity to try these.
