This afternoon I had a 6.6X54 Punch Uppercut Toro cigar. This cigar has been resting in my 65% rh humidor for 12 months. When I purchased these cigars I did not know anything about them; only that they were "Punch Cigars" and they were offered on private auction on CBID. My cigar this afternoon was absolutely delicious as the few that I have already smoked. After lighting this cigar I experienced a med-full, oily, earthy, peppered, spice and coffee smoke with that added mustiness of aged tobacco that I so love. The construction of this cigar was excellent with minor small vein, razor sharp burn and excellent draw; dang-it-it was so very good. I contacted cigar vendors; CI, Famous, Holts, etc and they all said that they did not have these cigars. Finally I talked to Famous Cigars and was told that this cigar was discontinued by Punch because they could not get the raw material to continue. I had 25 of these cigars and will smoke them sparingly; Oh Well. I topped off this smoke with a large cup of hot coffee and I had a cigar event!
Revisited the Viaje Cache. Initially a bland and boring cigar, it has transformed into a wonderful smoke; amazing what just 8 months rest at 65-62% can do.
