Winter Batch

I just realised I forgot to do this but anyways here are the cigars you have... the theme is small, high quality cigars to keep everyone happy over the cold months

• Saint Luis Rey Puritos: tiny and tasty for the coffee break
• Trinidad Reyes: trusty and true, luxury small and meaty cigars that don't disappoint (see for example a recent review by Matt)
• Cohiba Secretos: Much like the Reyes, but even more expensive, 5 year aged tobacco, maduro, from a box dated Nov'08.
• Partagas Shorts: recent arrival, a half corona Partagas classic, and a top quality box to boot. Dated Nov.2010 these are very young with a lovely wrapper and great potential. Leathery beasts balanced out with aromatic woods. Ports, sherries any kind of fortified wines will do.
• El Rey del Mundo - Choix Supreme: the medium-bodied robusto makes a comeback after those great ones we had a year or so ago. The interesting thing about this blend - the citrus flavours. These Oct.09s weren't ready to smoke 6 months ago but hopefully they are coming around now. 

A temporary farewell to Zach who is off to China but took some cigars with him. Good way to avoid homesickness.

We are running low on cigar stocks so remember to let me know if you're going overseas - particularly Australia, Switzerland, or the U.S. - so that we can get you to pick a box or 2 with your duty free allowance...ta!
