Very nice! Look forward to the progress of the cabinet!
Finishing the day with COTM Jan Siglo IV hosted by [MENTION=13452540]Shaun[/MENTION]. Been curious about this as the first one had a very metallic taste and texture to it!
This one doesn't! Is it a few months down the line or just so, won't know.

I think I may finally have this CAD under control...
The next instalment - RA Gigantes. It started off mild but by no means flavourless - slightly nutty, has a mild liquorice flavour and some sweetness (almost like the liquorice sticks you can chew on?). Aftertaste was again very mild and the smoke production was far less than the VR Don Alejandro I had yesterday. Definitely not full strength, I?m getting hardly any nicotine hit from this one. As it?s gone on the flavours mentioned above have chopped and changed intensity with an addition of well, tea?! Tea a valid flavour in a cigar? It?s no cup of Yorkshire Gold but it?s definitely there. Construction is easily the best of those had so far although the draw a little tighter than I like. A really good smoke, definitely complex, especially if you?re after something medium flavour that doesn?t punch you in the guts. Not my personal favourite so far though (this week of big cigars is like choosing your favourite child, they?re all great so it?s really tricky unless you really loathe one of them [emoji23])

A very good 2012 Siglo II from a pack of five bought last year. Cohibas really do benefit from age. I forgot to take a pic during, so here's the after!
