Here's to a new start in 2007

Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted anything in the Humidor. But, it's a new year and a great time to start posting again. The problem is the weather here in Lincoln has turned to full fledged winter, so the cigar smoking opportunities are few and far between.

However, I need to fill in the blanks between now and my last post. I've enjoyed several excellent cigars, including several from Rocky Patel's excellent blends. I also celebrated a fantasy football win with a restock of the humidor, adding 5 packs of Joya de Nicaragua 1970 Antano Consul, a potent little cigar from the reviews I've read, a 1992 RP Vintage, and the ones I'm looking forward to the most, 5 lovely Rocky Patel Sun Grown torpedos.

Until then, I'll expand the humidors reviews to include another vice, beer.

To wind up the New Years weekend I opened a bottle of Boulder Beer Company's Planet Porter that I received in a winter beer sampler. The beer is very drinkable porter. I tasted coffee and chocolate, and the beer was very smooth. I'd recommend trying a bottle if you get a chance.
