MD80 video camera

Alec Bradley Spirit of Cuba Corojo Robusto
Smoked on Saturday 28 November 2009. I’ve only had these in the humidor for two weeks, so I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised but this appeared to have absolutely no taste whatsoever! Pre-light this had that smell

Ramon Allones Specially Selected

More reviews here. From 2001. Been in humidor since 19 August 2009. Smoked 20 November 2009.
