Rich's acquisitions

[Vitola]

I had my first one of these Dippy's last night and they do taste damn good - slight bitterness and nicotine build up in final third, but nothing a bit of ageing won't cure - they can only get better

A few recent arrivals this week -

I won a sampler from our friends down under for my contribution to a thread.



I also bought some aged Le Hoyo de San Juan from their auction site.





Lately there have been some good lots being offered and prices seem to have found a decent level too.

Finally, popped into the duty free humidor at Zurich airport yesterday on my way home. There are two duty free shops, the first one had a very small and disappointing selection, the second was much much better. The assistant was quite happy with me searching through boxes to find the oldest ones possible.

Those all look good, especially the HdM, the San Juan is high on my list of sticks I?m trying to gather for next summer.

Two more arrivals this week.

A box of the Por Larranaga Gran Robusto.



Finally, another auction acquisition, a box of July 16 Hoyo Epicure No 1.



Humidor starting to look fuller now, at this rate it might be full in six months.

The PL is a masterpiece. One of the best REs ever....
I'm on my 3rd box and can hardly leave them alone

Thank you mate but unfortunately work was too busy to get away, hopefully I?ll be in Mexico to see in the New Year, of course I?ll be bringing back some glass top Cohibas to share with you guys.

A few more boxes this week -

Another box of the Diplomatico?s



Got a good price of one of my favourites, so added another box. Jun 19 box code, my current open box is five years old and are smoking wonderfully. These will go into the back of the humidor for a long rest.



Finally, continuing my Upmann odyssey, trying some Mag 46?s. Not quite sure about the ribbon though, good old quality control.
