Last night I had a Fonseca Habana Selection Cadete...lots of flavor and strength packed into a small stick (petite corona)
Tonight I just finished a Cuba Libre Magnum...I'm a big fan of box pressed cigars and this was no let down. It had an almost rectangular shape that made me just want to keep the stick locked between my teeth for the duration. Really enjoyed this one. :smiley20:
Corojo 97 and CAO gold maduro.
I smoked one of the Cerberus cigars from the box split yesterday while grilling.
Arganese CL3 Robusto. This was my second try at this cigar, it was much better after sitting in the humidor for a week and a half (and they will probably get even better). The first had severe draw, burn and construction problems.
Finally had one of the Partagas Black Label Bravos I had in my humi last night. Very nice! Hints of chocolate and coffee and stout.:smiley20:
Illusion ECCJ.....wow. what a nice smoke.
Might need a box of those.

had a cigar from this place in San Francisco called Stogies Inc.
it was a Churchill (Dominican with a Sumatra wrapper), cost me like $10 but i was on vacation and felt like having something from the area
not bad, but nothing great
Onyx Reserve Robusto
Cabaiguan Guapos 46 Maduro
Partagas Short...My go to cigar. Had it with coffee watching the sun come up in my cruiser.

And so the week of bachelor reviews.... begins
LFD L500 with the Oscuro wrapper - Love these!
WOAM
5 Vegas A Anomaly
Diplomaticos #2. Overshadowed by the Monte #2, and other more popular brands, the first one was harsh. Last night, some three years later - outstanding.
One afternoon last week, working from home, I sat and enjoyed the biggest cigar I've ever smoked.
This had been sleeping peacefully since it was gifted to me by a member of this board over 2 years ago. (Many thanks, you know who you are.)
I had always thought these were somewhat of a gimmick, but I enjoyed it thoroughly, all 2 hours 27 minutes of it. I'd read these had horrible burn problems due to the different wrapper leaves, and while the darker (Maduro??) did burn a bit slower, a few gentle corrections fixed it up.

smoked a 5 Vegas classic toro this afternoon, and a CAO VR Robusto tonight. Both were great smokes, they came in a sampler pack. The VR is outstanding and for only 4 bucks a stick a great deal too.
Smoked my first Gurkha Signature '101' Maduro last night and it will not be my last.:smiley20:
last night I had an ERDM rectangulares, and as always, I wasn't dissapointed.
Enjoyed an Aristoff Box-Pressed Maduro Piramide last night while playing dominos, like my grandfather did in his youth! Good smoke for a great price.:smiley4:
las night I had an Onyx Reserve mini belicoso. I have to tell you, I wasn't very impressed. the owner of the B&M highly suggested it, and now I am wondering if that man has any active tastebuds left in his mouth. Either that, or he has smoked too many White Owls that this tastes good to him.
Tonight, I go back to a nice Legend-arios bertha MMMMMM.:smiley41:
FINALLY got a second to take a break from work and smoke an RP Vintage 99 Connecticut.
While it's not a bad smoke, it's not anywhere near the kind of flavor I expected, especially being a Rocky "Vintage". I think I'll stick with the 90s and 92s.
