So 7 or 8 yrs ago I was into cigars and starting to get into pipes. Had quite the NC collection and was starting to dabble into CC. Life happened, my son was born and I started chasing oil work across the country. Before we left Cali we sold all the pipe stuff and all the NC. Packed the CC in a wineador with a couple pounds of beads. So about a month ago I cracked open the wineador for the first time in 6yrs. Great cigar aroma, but the beads were solid white and some heavy wrapper damage to the loose sticks on trays. I am now back full force and am slowly bring my stock back to life and enjoying the hobby all over again. And don't worry, I am keeping this stock separate and would never use it in a PIF/MAW/bomb/whatever. Just glad to be back in the game! Side note I smoked an 08' Punch Petit Punch last night that was killer. So they were salvageable, maybe just lost a lil flavor potential. Anyways greetings from Monahans, Texas!

Welcome brother. After six years, I think those puppies are probably beyond saving, but one of the fun things about our hobby is buying more.
Flavors seem to be muted but smoking good enough for work and around the yard. Have only smoked a few of the el cheapo JLP and Quinteros. Think after lunch I'll try a PSD4, should be a better test subject.
