Romeo y Julieta Reserve Real Churchill - for some reason the Robusto seemed to be a better smoke.
Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 - very easy to draw.
Yesterday
La Riqueza By Tatuaje No. 4 5x48 (Very good smoke)
Today
Heroes & Legacies hand rolled yesterday - Nicaraguan Puros Robusto - Sun grown maduro Wrap
(Enjoying this one very much also)
Yesterday -- CAO Italia Positano
Now -- Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic 2001.:smiley41:
I had a Romeo and Julieta 1875 Reserva Real with coffee this morning.
I don't have a lot of experience yet, but I did like this cigar. Not as much as the Casa Torana 1916 Cameroon, though.
Any cigars similar to the 1916 you all might suggest?
This weekend, I am going to do the newbie sampler!
Padronification in the form of a 3000 Natural

Cruzado Mario
Oliveros El Padrino -- oily and a bit sweet -- enjoing it.
Over the last week in central america I had:
Joya de Nicaragua (it is definately one of my faves now!)
Lempira (very weird from honduras and have not seen it here. This was a rough smoke)
Bacarrat (will never have it again. I am not too fond of the honey taste)
I bought a Padron 1926 sampler box at the duty free shops in the Nicaraguan airport. $70 for the sampler of 4 sticks. Now I just want to find an excuse to smoke one!:smiley41:
Its Thursday?Quote:

Let the cigar make the occasion special not the other way around. When the day is not a special occasion, a nice cigar can change that

CAO MX2 Gordo (this is my second MX2 and wow they are impressive!) Having it with early evening cappuccino and really enjoying this since I have been recovering from surgery for a month now and feeling better FINALLY the last couple of days! Surgery is hard on us old farts.
Rocky Patel Edge
Had some issues getting it lit and keeping it lit. Other than that it was decent.
Last night my wife and I went to a Cajun-themed party and got some great food... then I enjoyed an Oliva Serie O in the backyard with my wife - had the fire pit going, it was awesome!

A. Fuentee Flor Fina 858
:smiley4:
A Flor De Oliva Maduro while wrapped in a blanket on my deck, damned it's getting cold up here.
Finishing up an Olivia Series V Belicoso. As always, nubbing this one.
Romeo y Julietta Habana Reserve - pretty good but the shape was a little strange and I think I fucked up the cut because the draw was a little tough.
5 Vegas Shorty - cool little mini torpedo, good choice for a smoke on a time crunch.
I started last night by enjoying a Savinelli Rico y Raro Torpedo and ended the night with a Padilla Series '68 Toro! It was a pretty good night!:smiley4: Went 2 for 2 last night!! The Yanks won big and so did my Irish!
Smoking my first Camino Viejo cigar of the month, the Sabor Cubano. So far I'm impressed with their selections.
"O" Classico
Not my favorite of the few I've had, but not bad . A very tight draw no matter how much I cut.
Smoked my last CAO MX2 out on the back deck. It's getting a little cold for outdoor smoking, and I'm not sure where I shall be smoking this winter.
AF Hemingway Signature - out under a shade tree avoiding the blistering sun in this eighty-freaking-eight degree heat. Happy November everyone! :smiley22:
I really liked this one.

Viola!
I bought two leather/wood recliners, a small table, and a t.v. Set it all up in a corner of my garage. Love it!

Not sure how to put a pic directly in post. Did search and found how to use album.
Had a fight with the wife so I had to go with an old reliable. H. Upmann Special Souvenir. Nowhere near the tastiest but it's a smooth smoke, burns even, and the ash doesnt flake off in the wind and get all over my suit. Ahh, feel better now.
I enjoyed an AF Hemingway Short Story last night - tasted great and had a perfect burn - ahhh, stress relief.

Enjoyed a Joya de Nicaragua last night...always a pleaser!
Finished the weekend with:
Carlos Torano Casa Torano
5 Vegas Miami
Did you hook up your cable to the TV in the garage? If so, what is the best way to do that. I sometimes get bored smoking a cigar in the porch by myself so having a TV setup in the garage sounds like a great idea. Any and all comments are welcome!

Originally, my wife and I ran cable through out the house coming from the basement up the walls using an electricians fish (I think that's what it's called...assists in passing wire through walls).
My only finding is that the more splits, the weaker the signal.
The garage tv is at the end of 2 splits, but not affected. My internet would be though.
Good luck!
I just had my second MX2 a few days ago. Sounds like it is time for you to restock. :smiley37:Quote:

I smoked a Gordo size the other day. Tasty stick!
CAO Italia Gondola (My First)
I taste the CAO-ness, a subtle flavor I tasted in the MX2 but they are definitely different. This Italia is not quite as "brackish" (brackish is good) as the MX2. Tastes a little spicier than the MX2. So far I like it in the first third as I type. My next CAO treat will be a Soprano.
Last night a Gurkha Rare Breed Robusto. I got a 5 pack. Don't know why. I never liked any other Gurkha I had before. But it was cheep on an auction... damn auctions. I had 2 of the five a couple weeks ago and bla. But the third one last night the flavor came around a little. Mayby I'll age the rest a while see how that does.
