Monte #4
Just finished a Fuente Short Story after lunch (compliements of Shelby07 and the b'day club). Thanks man! It was great as usual...
Just waiting for my new cutter in the mail so I can fire up a Nov 05 RASS.
I had an LFD L300. It was not what I expected but I liked it alot. I thought the ligero would make it really full bodied, but it wasn't. A little veiny. A bit spicy, slight sweetness, nice leather, fruit. Perfect burn. Felt like a dowel rod in my hand. A bit of a hard draw, but I forgive that for the perfect burn and not too hot at the nub. Only ashed it twice.
To be honest, I read about someone else smoking one around here, and I was mystified by the acronym. Did a search, and found out it was a La Flor Dominica Ligero. :smiley23: I know, waddanewb. Anyway, the car made a right turn all by itself, straight to the B&M on the way back to the office from lunch, and they were right there next to the HDMs. :smiley20:
Just taking the last puff on the nub of a AF Anejo #48
Damn, burned my fingers! :smiley17:
H Upman Corona Junior (tubos) and a Carlos Torano perfecto.
The first was suprisingly good considering that I picked it up in a supermarket on the spur of the moment. Plenty of spice.
I didnt have any major burn problems with the CT, which some others have reported, and thouroughly enjoyed it.
My wife and I celebrated our 20th anniversary together today with a big party for immediate family. We have only been married 13 of those years, but we started dating back in high school in 1986. What a blast of a time we all had. I smoked 3 cigars with matching sets going to my dad, father in-law, brother and bro in-law. Started the afternoon with a round of Fuente Best Sellers, then moved to Padron 1964 Anniversary Maduro Torpedos(since it was an Anniversary...). The grand finale was a round of Matasa 30th Anniversary Perfectos. Amazing smoke.:smiley20:
Oh and the Misses and my Mother joined in and smoked some CAO Bella Vanillas. I will have to slowly work on converting them to good cigars.
Tonight I had a Rocky Patel Sun Grown it wasn't quite as smooth as I was expecting when I first lit it up but I guess I might be slightly spoiled by the Vintages. I enjoyed it overall nice steady even burn good taste but still definitely not a '90 or '92 Vintage
Monte #2 with a couple of glasses of shiraz in the garden. Major performer with masses of creamy smoke, when you get a good one I really believe that the #2 is unbeatable.
Agreed. Friday - Party 898 Varnished, Saturday - Party corona, Sunday, H. Upmann Mag 46.Quote:
