The menu is making me hungry already. Can't wait for this great event.

Its a fish, it tastes like Basil, extra virgin olive oil and pine nuts. Which is incidentally what i think it is cooked in.

Late bump but still bumping this.

Thought I'd post a short review of one of the sticks from the dinner for todays bump:

La Riqueza No 4

I think its impossible to look at a La Riqueza and not think of a Cuban assuming you know anything about Cubans. The band, the quality of the wrapper, the triple cap and even the dress box right up to the inclusion of “tax seal” like stickers had to be put together with the thought of generating the feeling you are looking at a box of Cubans. When I went to a recent store event a rep was smoking one and I asked him what it was because at a glance I thought he was smoking…….well you get my point.

It’s a handsome stick and looks as good as a 26 or 64 which is high praise indeed. It lights easily, produces plenty of smoke and jumps to the flame when its offered. The smoke off the stick smells a little of something toasted and cinnamon. The tastes are earthy with touches of pepper and cinnamon through out and while I wouldn’t consider it complex its interesting enough to wind away an hour with and have no complaints about that time.

Appearance – 10
Construction – 10
Flavor – 8
Value – 8
Overall Experience -9
Overall Grade – 9.0

Final Verdict – A very nice cigar that I feel warrants owning a box even if 90% of your collection is Cuban.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Due to logistical issues we will not be providing engraved Palio cutters at this function. I hope this won't influence your decision to attend the event, as it will still be fine food, friends and fabulous cigars. if you have other questions please feel free to contact me with them.
