What they smoked:



2000 Partagas de Partagas #1

Slavac score: 3.5
Flat4boxer score: 8.7


Clearly... there's something going on here with these cigars. I asked Brad how he was storing them because, while it's no secret habanos have draw issues, not EVERY one should.

Turns out his humidor is around 70% (which it far too high for habanos... NCs seem to be able to tolerate high RH a bit better).

From now on, he's gonna drybox them a bit before smoking them. That should make it a little better. A bad draw can really ruin the smoking experience...
