CIGAR BLEND BATCH #69: “TEN LORDS A-LEAPING”
129.72 PROOF

On the tenth day of Christmas, the Leaping Lords are not about to be undone by the rough and rowdy Batch #68, aka “Nine Ladies Dancing.” In this batch we find an old and deep vintage Armagnac barrel influence, with dark dried fruit notes of Medjool dates, black mission figs, grilled peaches, plump dark raisins, and black currants, together with “rancio” old nutty notes of strong and tangy blue vein cheeses such as French Roquefort and English Stilton, wintergreen mint candy, and dark pumpernickel rye. Rich notes of classic Italian Panettone bread, dried mesquite bush, peppermint patties, and mint simple syrup fill the palate. Waves of candy cane, blue-veined cheese, and buttery cinnamon toast with real maple syrup trickle down the gullet. A true gentleman’s dram!

How much did it cost you?

I just paid $50 over retail online (retail is $200 right?). I need it, so said f it, lol

Like chewing the center of a Nutter Butter. Can’t recommend. Although a friend of mine made a chocolate peanut butter martini with this and likes it.

Wow did you write this!? Absolutely stellar write up

I still have yet to try one of these. The Batch 58 is on the top of my list of wants currently.

Haha, I did not. Copied from the magnus site describing this batch.

I like you guys but I'm not gonna ever talk like that! Lol

Both of my bottles were had at 175 or retail.

This one was via winning a store lottery.

Dude, how much you wanna bet my order gets cancelled because they DON'T actually have it....

It’s all good! I was secretly hoping for an SQM hand off but I just saw the news.

That was in the plans. Might have to wait for Atl.

Fuggers just canceled my cigar blend order. Way to manage your inventory bitches. FWIW, I DO NOT recommend ReUp liquor online. Do not shop there.

I guess we shall see in two months or so (when I open this Hirsch) if our barrel is better than Fred’s. Maybe I’ll open my JD Coy Hill at the same time and go ape on some high proof juice.

Yeah I saw that. Haha.

 

[ChaosRock]

I can't remember who it was, it might have been @Forty4 , but there was a question about Little Book Chapter 1 Secondary prices.

Just saw one and the ask was $375.

I’m interested. It’s the only one missing from my collection.

 

[FDLmold]

Oh no, it's the 119 batch!

Best leave that on the shelf. Still plenty of the 118 in my cupboard.

i need a detailed tasting since i have the same barrel as you. Also, I'm dry this month, and i'm itching to open some of my bottles. So please, give us a breakdown; Nose, Palate, viscosity, finish.

 

[joeyshin]

Recent acquisitions. I need help! Help drinking that is.

Also I seem to really like everything Blue Note

 

[joeyshin]

In all fairness. He does say that he just finish a few outstanding SiBs so that maybe why he didn’t like it

It drinks like Noah's Mill on steroids. Cinnamon bomb, and you'd never know it was nearly 140 proof.

Sweet since I just grabbed two Noah’s mills.

I think Fred just got a bad barrell.
