AF Chateau Fuente. Nice little late night smoke.
This week I smoked:
5 Vegas Double Corona (Always puts a smile on my face)
CAO Cameroon (A little on the light side of medium for my taste, but good) - Thanks spyderman!
CAO Brazilia Piranha (Dynamite in a small package....tasty to the nub) - Thanks Eric!
ISOM Partagas (A little too tight of a draw, it's too bad I don't have many to try) - Thanks Cigar BOTL!
5 Vegas Limitada '05 Belicoso (Not exciting, but good, just consistently a little over medium)
5 Vegas Double Corona (Another smile...this one was extra tasty; I really was concerned about burning my fingers)
RP Vintage 1992 (Possibly EURO, it's too light for my taste, which is too bad because it has a great flavor) - Thanks spyderman!
RyJ Clemenceau en Tubos (This was terrific; it had patches of white bloom all over it and I would bet you that this cigar was just about the best possible condition and taste you can get from this specific cigar. I bought it from a local retail store, so maybe that had something to do with it's good condition. :smiley22: I don't know, I'm a newb.)
Tonight, shortly after I post this, I will smoke a CAO Brazilia Samba. (It was very tasty. I picked the wrong drink to go with it however. I started with my old friend Jim Beam and Diet Coke, but it is a little two sweet for the Brazilia. I should have gone with Scotch. I'll know next time.)
Had a Jose La Pierda Cremas - I like these, good tasting, machine made or rustic handmade, I can't tell, seems short filler though. Nice tobacco flavor, kinda sweet at the start and good smooth medium to mild tobacco flavor through out. They were freebie's throw in on a purchase I made but I may actually grab a box of these.
and a perdomo2 torfecto. Still one of my favs. You like them or hate them.
What a weekend on the way to Chicago a Virtuoso. Got there and had to have a Por Larranga, ERDM choix suprema, San Cristobal, Ashton VSG wizard and Cuesta Rey Robusto #7.
they had some tins at my local shop of RP vintage aged 10 and 12 years. didn't say 1990 or 1992 on the tin, but it did on the bands. same size as cohiba pequenos. they were 12.50 for a tin of five. i'm smoking one now. has all of the flavor of the bigger ones. i can't find anything on them on the net, though. great 20 minute smoke!
I smoked 2 Jose Piedra's and a siglo III yesterday.
"Partagas Deluxe" from Habana. Delicious.
RyJ Coronitas en cedro yesterday, OK smoke and good value.
mmmm. My last cuban RyJ was burned tonight. It somehow managed to sneak in between my crappy H.Upmans. It was utter bliss.
