Ever since I started smoking cigars, I have kept just about every single band from every single cigar I have smoked. The other day, I was just randomly rummaging around and came across a particular band
that I vividly remember from about 5-6 years ago when I first started enjoying cigars. Its clearly a Romeo y Julieta band, but in black with large red '125' emblazoned right in the middle of it. All I remember about it was that it was a churchill size, probably a maduro, but what was really easy to remember was how good it tasted!
Now clearly, my taste and palate have changed over the years, but you really never forget a really good memorable experience with a cigar you have had in the past; this was one of those special moments.
What I am trying to say is that, I really want to try it agian and see if it was just as good as I remember it
to be, or is it just one of those cigars I thought was really good at the time because I had really only had about 10 different cigars in my youth?
I began to research and investigate online to see if it still existed/was available. The only thing I came across was an old Famous Smoke.com link that clearly isnt accessable from their main site anymore(Google is suprising sometimes) Here is the link:

After finding this, I am about 99% sure this is the same cigar I had all those years ago. My question to all of you out there is do you know/remember anything about this cigar? Or better yet, does anyone still have one? Lol
I realize this is a shot in the dark because it was a special limited edition cigar, but even so. I am curious as to what other people thought of it when they smoked it (if anyone has smoked it)
It would just be really cool if I could revisit a cigar that I smoked within the first year of beginning
my passion and interest in my love of the leaf. Even if that simply means hearing what others have to say about this particular cigar in question.
Also, I will try and post a picture of the band on my page considering I can't add the pic as an attachment in this blog for some reason.
