Punch Black Prince ARA Sep 00

Just picked up 3 boxes (ARA Sep 00). Gotta say that I used to be worried (still am but if the price is right I will bite) about 1999, 2000 construction but it would seem that with all of the remaining inventory from these years that vendors have they are smoking great, getting older every year....and some can be had for a great price considering the age. The one I smoked today ROTT was really well made, had a dark oily wrapper, and was heavy (that usually means overfilled) but in this case the draw and burn were both perfect. With these being discontinued the plan is to pick up a few more boxes to have down the road instead of saying to myself later....man I wish have picked up more, or.... I remember when you could buy those for..... etc and so on. Just take a look at the prices the Erdm Tanios, RAC's, Punch SS#2, FDC Coronas, H2k Festivals, HU S.coronas command nowadays if someone is willing to let a box go on the secondary market.

Bottom line is that it was an enjoyable smoke that was lighter than its compadres the Punch Punch & SS #2. I find myself reaching for the C.Gorda size more and more
