Terra del sole huge stick. Very good.
An Oliva weekend so far, sampled three boxes I bought a year ago:
Serie V Belicoso (short Torpedo) - still too spicy for me after a year without cello, probably because I haven't been smoking cigars that much since the spring. Back to the back of that coolerdor for another year.
Serie G Special G Maduro - little firecracker. Nice Maduro taste, knocked me out for most of the afternoon, again, probably because I had an empty stomach. Still a little spicy to me - of the three, I only kept these in cello, maybe I should've de-cello'd them as well.
Flor de Oliva Corojo Pyramid - somewhat surprisingly, best of the three. Ready for smoking after a year. Not a complex smoke, but ya can't beat the price ... :smiley37:
RP '92 yesterday
Kauai Island Prince Luana Iki Dark - Amazingly good :smiley20:
Tatuaja Havana VI Hermosos
La Gloria Cubana Maduro Churchill (7 x 50) while sipping on a Full Sail Session Black Lager doing yard work.
Aside from the wrapper getting torn up from knocking it on shrubs, it was a tasty, long smoke.
It's the last cigar I hadn't tried from a big order I received months back.
Went up to a buddy's cabin this weekend and smoked a Cohiba XV and a Davidoff 4000. Big thanks to Paddy for the opportunity to try the 4000. I enjoyed it very much until I could no longer hold on to it.
Party Short. These just keep getting better and better.

Diplomaticos #4- awesome!!!!
Jamie Garcia Reserva Especial Robusto:
From the start : a rich / deep tobacco flavor -cocoa, slight sweetness and spice. About a 1/2 way through, the cigar had a massive decline in flavor(s) .......to almost sour notes. A great cigar if you only smoke 1/2. A bit disappointing for entire cigar.

TTT Trinidad Edicion Limitado Toro- pretty damn good...:smiley20:
Camacho 10th anny ~ 11/18

La Aurora Preferido #2 Maduro - Ash as white as a ghost. Amazing smoke.
Some Lito Gomez cigar with a chisel tip. It was better that I expected.
Rung in the new year with a Montecristo Edicion Limitada #2. Not a bad way to start off the year.
It's been a Partagas week for the holidays:
- X-mas Day: Partagas Black Label Pronto (4 3/16 x 36) with a couple brothers-in-law after finishing a 9-hour game of Risk
- New Year's Day: Partagas Robusto (4 1/2 x 49) on the porch listening to Car Talk and Wait, Wait.. Don't Tell Me!
Opus X Shark..............save your time and your money. Just NOT worth it!
A Punch Rothschild Maduro which hit the spot quite nicely.
Yesterday:
Camacho Triple Maduro 50/4.5
Day before yesterday:
RyJ Churchill
Today:
Padron 5000 Robusto
Opus Forbidden X (FFOX Royal 8) from 2005. Even with the age, this was quite the spice bomb. Great cigar, but I should have known better than to smoke that in the morning on an empty stomach.:smiley11:
Capoeira Professor - Jesus Fuego's Famous House brand.
Very toothy wrapper. Excellent smoke.
Esteban Carreras 10 Anos
Had it with coffee this morning and was really surprised! This was a great stick, I had no idea.
I should have said, stomach full of ash...Nothing has hit my lap in ten years.
Perdomo Champagne first cigar of the day and not bad at all. :smiley20:
El Cobre ~ Robusto...I can see how these are crack.
Thank you _______

The "new" Habanos puros fuerte......nice.
Padron Lonnie while I watched the Chiefs suck.
Now...El Cobre to soothe my pain.
At least the Chiefs made it, my Giants have been playing golf for a week and a half already!
And I had a Tabak Especial robusto with coffee, not a big fan of these but someone gave it to me as a gift a few weeks back.
LaDC ~ Robusto
Thanks, bro.

Puros Indios Siembra de Oro Palma Real Maduro - Better than expected.
Good draw, good even burn. Typical Puros Indios flavor profile.
Paul Garmirian Gourmet Series 15th Anniversary Corona. Not usually a fan of rosado wrappers but this one was not too bad...
My Father Le Bijou 1922 Churchill
Camacho Corojo ~ 5.5x54
Very good, sofar. Saw it in the humi, and thought "Hmmm CA #5, eh?"
Thanks, Rich!
