Today's Smoke 2020

Well, was looking forward to this smoke but got a little under the weather a few days ago and literally cannot taste anything. Figured cigar smoking would be different since I can use my nose to help with the flavors but nope, cannot taste anything on this cigar. This was still a gift and is still burning amazing so still gonna burn this one all the way down though. Thanks for this brother. I assume this would’ve been an awesome smoke if I would’ve used my brain.

Partagas Flor Fina from 1882. Amazing that it still has this much white pepper on the finish after almost 130 years.... Thank you sir! You know who you are.... 😉View attachment 32496View attachment 32497
That’s all you’ve got to say after smoking a 130 year old cigar 😂 How was the famous “black tobacco” they used back then? Any changes, any flavors?

lol! It was really awesome aside from the realization that I was smoking tobacco older than my Great Grandfather would be if he were still around. It didn’t evolve, but I didn’t really expect there to be so much flavor with the pepper and nicotine. I was honestly expecting it to be like the equivalent of drinking a La Croix water (I think there’s tobacco in here somewhere). 😉
What’s the story on the black tobacco? I did notice how dark it was and found that intriguing, but wasn’t aware of the back story.
