The H&F were rolled in 2012, Jeremy, so I don't think you can draw any assumptions about recent production from them. Have a had stuff that was awesome ROTT and went downhill and never got as good again? Yes...the '07 Por Larranaga Robusto ELs are the first thing to come to mind. But is that typical or even common? Not in my experience.
It was a gift, Jeremy, but I was going to inquire anyway since it was so much better than the other recent SWs I have smoked. I'll let you know if I find out.Glassman said:

Interesting. Thanks Tom.
Stuck at a construction site in Newark (the smelly half of NJ) so decided to burn a PSD4. The last one I smoked from the same box (OCT14) sucked hard, but this one was finestkind.

Baaad ugly, but crazy tasty Boli PC! (much darker and rougher looking in person)
Yeah, lighter wrappers are pretty, but sticks like this make me wonder if the tendency is to put too much focus on wrapper, especially lighter ones, because that's what we can see.
Surely the quality and batches of filler play a big role. It would certainly seem to have in this case. Thing was utterly delicious from the get go, ETP 16 I think. Did start to taste a little young in the second half but still really good.
I dunno, maybe the Boli blends are just so good to me, that they're still great across a wide range of variations. Or wrappers can still be really delicious even when not gorgeously light and thin.
I just don't know what to think anymore...

For sure! They could be a daily for me.
But honestly I've yet to have a Boli I didn't like. The liberatador.......
Keep those thoughts to yourself, Jeremy. There is a vendor whose entire business model is getting you to buy from a tier system based entirely upon the look of the wrappersBaaad ugly, but crazy tasty Boli PC! (much darker and rougher looking in person)

Seems like he also manages to somehow get a premium on wrappers that would generally be considered less desirable by many... Genius!
