I just picked up a box of DPG Black Perlas...

...from 2007. At least that's what the date stamp on the bottom says. I'm going to smoke one in a little while. Looks and smells promising.

Looking forward to your commentary!

Well, it was very woody with a white pepper spice. The black pepper blast that many Pepins have initially is completely gone. There was a very slight sweetness and a dry texture to the smoke. shilala would say it's like smoking a spicy newspaper but I like it.

Great smokes! It's handy how DPG puts factory and date codes on his boxes. Otherwise I'd knock him for imitating. But the cigars are good!

These are supposed to be really good smokes... enjoy 'em...

thanks for the review, sounds promising
