I really really like these. :smiley20:
Tonight I smoked a pretty good cigar that was gifted to me. Don't remember the brand, but the band has like a snarling sun on it or something. Had em' before and liked em' then too.

A Graycliff Platinum Serie Pirate (torpedo). Joya de Nicaragua Celebracion churchill after lunch.
I've had both sitting for about four months and were both just perfect.

Enjoyed a Kauai Island Prince yesterday which if you get a chance to try is a must. Grown in Hawaii.
Today is a Alec Bradley Fine and rare.
Saturday:
Arturo Fuente Flor Fina 8-5-8 Gran Reserva
one word, YUM!
Sunday:
San Cristobal - la Casa del Habano (limited edition)
(also yum....but not as "yum" as the 8-5-8)
Arturo Fuente Double Chateau maduro wrapper. Good pricing but overall average.
My Father no. 5, love those Garcias!
Night off, working on projects. Siboney, Nice famous Honduran, El Cobre. Those El Cobre are rolled very nicely!
Had my first UC Gordito yesterday and it was nice just not much flavor to me.
Had my first Cult Robusto tonight and it was very nice lots of flavor.
Excalibur #3 Natural today
Room 101 San Andres Robusto. Rich and complex, a fiver makes a good auction pick up.
Put the wife behind the wheel for a 3hr drive home while I enjoy a My Father Le Bijou
Had a Hemingway Classic, cameroon wrapper yesterday and enjoying one of my favorites today...Excalibur #5 natural with a California Cab!
Had a NUB Cameroon early then a Victor Sinclair. I really like those NUB's:smiley37:
It's a nice warm East Tennessee day after a bit of snow a few days ago so I am having my first Viaje today. Platino, says it's Nicaraguan. Not sure if it's a puro or not, but it does remind me of a good maduro Padron. Thanks to greektitan for this one. I'm having a Paulaner Salvator beer with it. I just might mess around later and get a triple double. Yep, today is a good day.
Liga Privada #9 Toro
Really enjoyed this smoke.
It's been too cold to smoke here, but I braved the weather today and lit up a Padron.
Great Lakes Cigar Co. Entrega. Written on the label is 'Warning XXX Ligero'. This was a gift that I predjudicially thought was a stinker. However, It's well constructed, burning excellently, strong, and tasty.
*That warning label turned out to NOT be bullshit. This cigar would go great with a rueben.
Just had a LP Undercrown Gordito after breakfast. The garage was cold but well worth it.

I'm on my annual trip to Vegas and about to find myself at Casa Fuente. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/29/e2agy2er.jpg
The lancero for me please.
LOL- BTDT too! I still have my one last Fuente house blend sitting in the humi awaiting a special occasion.
Sadly though, like anywhere else on the strip, the cigars there are expensive! If you're looking to stock up on some cigars while in Vegas you'll definitely want to check out the Paiute Tribal Smoke Shop. The one on North Main.
Yes, expensive. It's one of those things that you really can't justify the cost of the product, but the experience is well worth it to me. It's just a great place to hang out with a cigar and have a drink. I'm sure I will be again tonight.
The guys I come here with aren't big cigar smokers, our cigars here might be the only ones they have this year, and Casa is one of their favorite places to hang out in Vegas too. There is just something about it that's really relaxing, maybe it's the extreme lightening of the wallet that happens while you are there.
Nice 63 degrees outside today so I fired up my first Cinco Vehas......very nice smoke. Letting others rest awhile and see if there is much of a change.

Had a CAO Mx2 today, and I was impressed! It was so good, the cigar was finished before I was! Haha, it was burning my fingers, but I wasnt ready to be done yet. Quite tasty.
Going to try my 1st Viaje! Going with the Reserva Oro
I hear that. My step son and his wife met up with us in Vegas when my wife and I went there a couple years back. Steven and I (my step son) went to the one gun place and shot machine guns and then I took him there for a "Mohito and a cigar" Since I don't drink, he got my Mohito as well as his own........LOL. It was the first time I'd met him IRL and it was great to have that time and sit and smoke and get to know him (and watch the freaky people walking by!)
Oddly enough, the prices in the casino's on the strip in Vegas are about what you'd pay in Canada for the same cigar. So it wasn't as big a hit for me as it would be for you I'm thinking. I'm used to seeing those prices! So it didn't make my head spin. It did however reduce the number of AF cigars I took home though.
A good cheap place to buy cigars down there is the Native Shop where you turn into the Valley of Fire state park. They had a pretty good selection when I was down last year for World Final Monster Trucks. If you like fireworks the family packs will probably fill the back of a pickup.
NUB Cain Straight Ligero Maduro.......very nice.
