You smoke one yet?
Finally smoked one. Just OK. Plugged to high heaven. I stabbed it out three times, and finally gave up on it after the first two thirds. That said, time will tell. It had hints of better Tats, like the TAA 2014. Kindy meaty/charry, but just wasn't that great.

I'm very happy I made the following purchase. And I might do it again.

Smoking my first one right now after two weeks of aging and it's absolutely incredible. Has the same Chinese pepper spice as an Opus X, but not as zingy. Just a home run of a stick. Zero issues, perfect draw, dreamy flavor.
I agree, they are a great cigar. My favorite Crowned Heads cigar. I'm down to 5 and want to get another 5-10. Where did you find them?

Spring strong sweet tall green grass grow...
I was on the hunt the other day for another brother and found the last three El Triunfador at my B&M. The next day I was telling a different sales guy that I bought what was left and he tells me about 2 black labels I've been searching for.
Nice score on the Blacks! Never seem to find those, but the El T turn up now and then.

What's your rh like? You've mentioned a couple plugs recently as well, maybe you're running high? Or maybe move some stuff around in there...
The RH was effed up when I mentioned the two back to back plugged cigars. Sitting pretty at 63 currently. This one went out because I didn't puff on it for two minutes.

Also, I rearranged my entire humidor just yesterday.

Speedy Small Batch hooked me up. So I tried a surprise order on the first 5. Been wanting to try a Caldwell and UC. Are the others good?

One other question. The L'Atelier already has a "cut cap"? Is this normal?
