New sticks today : Upmann 48, Trini 'T' and Boli EL2009
Upmann Mild & coffee- classic Upmann flavours - none of the chocolate I'd been promised, but good all the same.
Trini T : More like the Robusto Xtra than the Fundy - mildish & smoking fine now.
Boli EL2009 (Petit Beli) : Strong tobacco flavours - not amazingly Boliesque yet - a little like the Asia Pacific 2008 ERs
Decided to go a bit out of my medium/mild smoke comfort zone for once and went for for something a bit stronger with a Monte no.4 (one of the first sticks that went into my recently bought humidor).
Really nice smoke and a very harmonic evolution of flavours, definitely the hightlight of my short cuban smoking experience up to now.
Another Ramon Allones Specially selected for me. Sat in the garage on the laptop with a glass of Ricard / ice, having a mellow smoke. Getting too excited about Saturday and just ordered ?400 of sticks over the internet. I think ill be eating bread butties for the rest of the month to compensate! SAB001

Tried the first two over the weekend
Upmann, a bit disappointed at the size thought a Mag 48, would have been between a 46 and a 50 size wise, but it's not, it's very small (SD5)
At least I got the full on Chocolate thing, but they do need to rest for a few months IMO still a bit fresh.
The Trini T, Fine looking Cigar nice size and shape but mine's are Very Rough definately need 6 months to lay down.
Not tried the Boli yet
