YUM! With some Laphroaig Quarter Cask...
A guy at work gave me a couple.

The local B&M had a PDR event on Friday. These guys are a high volume B&M with a bar in the back room. They will get the major manufacturers to visit on occaision and it was PDR's turn.

I picked up some of these good looking cigars. They are dark, somewhat oily with a pig tail cap and a closed foot, which was interesting. I smoked one there and bought a whole box. I was impressed, obviously. And they gave me a hat, cutter lighter and 5 free cigars.

These are VERY good smokes. A little peppery at first, but I think that came from the closed foot burning off. The rest was smooth as can be. I'd call it medium bodied, and the construction is excellent. Perfect burn, lots of smoke, pretty consistent flavor throughout. The ones I smoked were at 70% RH.

I'll be keeping room in the humi for these from now on.

And they won't break the bank.
I've had 3 now, and they were very consistent and put out smoke like freight trains.
Glad you liked.
