    Port Recommendations

    I agree with Napa, ports are not spirits. It is still wine, and therefore can age. Most ports have at least some residual sugar, and the longer they age, the more the sweetness of the wine dissipates. But most should not be aged for an extremely long time. While some can be aged for 20-30 years...

    Port Recommendations

    they will age more . . . and the impact of aging will depend a lot on how much brandy they're fortified with, and what percent residual sugar is in the port

    Starter cigars?

    Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Connecticut

    I hear what you're saying about 2-3 smokes before a review. Like I said, I am open to trying another one to see whether or not I got a bad one.

    Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Connecticut

    yeah, the fact that this had a terrible draw I'm sure limited the amount of flavor I could actually experience, since I was getting very little smoke, on the whole it was a disappointment, but I would give it another try if I got one that was well made. I have had an RP decade before and that...
