Bummer about the cold, hope you are on the mend James!!
RP 1961 Robusto - tried kicking the evening off with one of these but was a total crash and burn...I bought 10 of these last year and each one has been worse than the previous...really tried to give them some time to rest and improve, but to no avail. Just a harsh, flavorless DUD. If this cigar started a band, it would be called "The Grateful Dud", and it would be a TERRIBLE band, with terrible fans that referred to themselves as "Dudheads". Do not buy this cigar, just cough up a little extra and buy the Royale or Sungrown Maduro instead.
Punch Siganture Robusto - thankfully this one rescued me from the Nineteen-Sixty-DUD. The Punch is a nice leathery medium full smoke, nothing particularly special but it's a nice stick at the end of the day.
