Good morning everyone! Sticking with the yellow cello theme and having a San Cristobal I got from a local B&M in 2011. They were in holiday sets from a previous (unknown) year. I could smoke these every day if I had them
This is officially the darkest cellophane that I’ve seen yet, but I have a few more that may give it a run when I finally decide to smoke the cigars.

Good morning all. In honor of my father’s birthday today, I’m having a My Father Le Bijou 1922 Connecticut I got from @smoke_em_if_you_got_em in Dec 2014. The 1922 original is one of my favorites, and the Connecticut wrapper takes the blend to a whole new arena of yumminess!
^ Perfect burn and ash :-)

Good morning from a bright sunny morning in Istanbul! In keeping with my yellow cello theme, I chose a Padilla Artemis Toro from March 2011. I was very sad when Padilla decided to quit making these years ago, and glad to see their return earlier this year. I haven’t had the chance to try the new release, but if they are the same as the older ones I encourage y’all to make room in your coolers for a box or two. They were always great fresh, but after a few years they smooth out and become a delicious treat for any time of the day. After almost 9 years, this is a real gem. Don’t let the low price fool you into passing on them for a higher priced “boutique” blend. I could offer them with bands off in the “Pepsi Challenge” against some of the best out there and most would pick the Artemis...they are that good, and well worth the nap time.

Good morning. Thanks for the review of the Padilla Artemis. I ordered a 5 pack corona to give them a try. The last Padilla I smoked was their 1948 and it was better than just OK.
Partagas Black Label that I received in 2012 with some other “aged” cigars to try. They came with a note that said each had 3+ years rest at that time. These cigars always have a rich “oily” feel and flavor. This Toro is great, but I preferred the Corona that was available for a short time.

Oh nice, I think Allan likes aged cigars too. @WaterNerd

^ Perfect burn and ash :-:blush: @dbeckom Good looking cigar...smoked for a very good reason! I don't think I have anymore of them which is a shame. They are supposed to be a regular production now for Federal Cigar but I cant get in touch with them to get my hands on more. Thanks for the reminder for me to reach out again!!!
Good morning everyone! Nick would smoke this, thanks @Usaf06!
I would smoke it but it's not from me knucklehead
