But back to the PT...the last one I smoked (3rd) had me in utter amazement at the flavors coming from that blend/wrapper combination. This has potential of becoming my favorite Tat.

Thanks For The Info!

How Long Did You Rest It?

Which of course is always the worst when they're very limited editions

The PT? Smoked one on my way home, another that same night on a full stomach, and the third the next night. So...24 hours? I'm gonna stay away from them for a little bit. I've forgotten about all the Viaje I stocked up on in the last month or so.

The Franks were not all that great to me. I thought it was too big of a smoke and a little bland towards the end. Not saying it's a bad stick, just not as good as most say they are. Boris over Franks. Just mho.

Glad you liked it though ass, oops... Walt.

No, I don't have any

Not yet at least... waiting for them. Hopefully by Monday. I wasn't comparing the Franks to the PT, just saying how I felt about the Franks...in case if there was any confusion.

The Franks were an amazing smoke when first released, but have lost their edge in the years since...they are still a good cigar, but not great by any means...Every time I have one, I tend to get extremely bored with it about 3/4ths of the way through...

Agreed...the one I smoked last night was good, but I wasn't getting the WOW factor that I had with one only a few months ago. I'm going to stay optimistic about the others I have sitting, thought I may pull out another sooner rather than later.
No worries about the PT's though. Those are phenomenal IMO.
