My memory is far from perfect, but this one seemed to be pretty much like the one I smoked in 2011 ROTT - but possibly more intense.
First third - trademark Cohiba "grassiness" very evident. Very enjoyable. Band glue tore the wrapper, annoying.
Second third - much less grassiness, predominant taste almost like an aged Opus X crossed with an aged JdN 1970, but smoother. Felt like the cigar needed a complement, went with Courvoisier V.S.O.P.; good pairing.
Last third - honestly, a bit too buzzed by then. Put the cognac aside. Cuban "twang" - yeah, I know, WTF is that taste - built up slowly and then came on strong like a freight train and then slowly subsided into, well, just plain damn good tobacco, best taken in very slow puffs - but the "show" was over by the last inch and a half. Like before, not a cigar that makes you want to burn your fingers on the nub, but smooth and silky right to the end.

Cigars-review.org ranks the BHK 54 in 50th overall, and I think that is a fair assessment at this time, given the cigars that are ranked higher/similar/lower that I've smoked. I think that I'll put the rest of the box back to sleep for another five years.

Great impromptu review. Thanks!

I meant to quote your Chiselito post, but now I have too much typed to go back. Yes, those LFDs are great!

Starting prep for my annual hunting trip by getting trailer packed and ready. Decided to snow on us yesterday and still dropping a tiny bit now. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in Canada but we just had our turkey today and I figured it was a good time to relax and "break in" my man cave with this cigar my brother brought back from ISOM least Feb. Full belly, good cigar and my last bit of sweet tea and all I can say is mmmmmmmmmmmm

Had an Arganese CL3 Torp...CI had another special for $1 for a fiver shipped. Not a bad smoke at all. Definitely worth 20 cents.

Not great....not bad.

AF Chateau Fuente Maduro - Good smoke.

Macanudo Rothschild Robusto - Circle K - Comes in the lime green sealed fresh pack. This is my first Macanudo. Pretty good. Not great, not trash. I would grab another in a pinch.

Trinidad Coloniales OUS MAR 10
These cigars were flooded in the great cooler disaster last year, but didn't form mold. I guess that the varnished boxes helped protect them. This is the first one that I've had, and it seems to smoke pretty decent - but nowhere near as good as before, maybe roughly equivalent to a PLPC.
