You're very welcome, sir!
I was racking my brain on what to send to a guy whose cigar collection has surpassed mine by quite a bit.
I feel good knowing that you will enjoy and appreciate them.
The T110 was a very limited run, and very few of those boxes were distributed west of the Mississippi River. I lucked into a box, and split it with a buddy. Be sure to have a full stomach when you light it up, it is a powerhouse, really rich in flavor and fairly stout. The first one I smoked I just drank water, the next one, just a simple glass of unsweet iced tea (which is what I really have enjoyed with the others)
The Partagas is really nothing special, except that it is 5 years old, and I think they are really prime for smoking right now. Slightly spicy, and very smooth. A hazelnut coffee will really set off the flavors.
The PLPC is pretty iconic. Hints of coffee and chocolate really come out, some will describe a caramel or honey like sweetness. I like it with a nice black tea, the flavors really complement one another. You don't want to drink something too sweet or too bitter with it.
I always try to buy my cigars in a Corona or similar vitola (6x46). This is because it is the size that the old Cuban master blenders would use as a baseline for developing a new cigar blend. Try as they might, you can never keep the exact same ratio's when you make bigger cigars, and you are often missing out on what the blender really intended for you to experience.

I can't wait!!! When I opened the package my jaw dropped, lol.
I hope you enjoy the ones that are in route to you now. I included a list of what's what and a Boveda pack so they will be good to smoke right away. I sent a sampling of my go to's. I hope you enjoy them!
Oh, I will send more of what our trade was. I ran out of room in the little box I had here...

Sounds like a stellar way to spend the afternoon to me!
*Mrs is hooked on an Australian show on Netflix, constantly playing in the background at the house, some of the stuff they say is kind of fun.
My Lady enjoys watching the Britt shows, lol. I know what you mean my friend.
