I had one yesterday and was pretty impressed as well.

Alec Bradley American Classic. Just OK. Had other American blends I liked much better.

Just lit a Padron 1926 35 maddy and opening my third Yuengling Light Lager. Life is good. Thanks badwhale! :)
Well, truth be told, american blends aren't my favorite to begin with. So, it was already working at a deficit for me. That's not to say I don't try to appreciate something different.
I wouldn't necessarily say that. The Prensado's I've had so far were fantastic. It's just the others that didn't work for me so far.
IMHO, american style blends work best at a mild-medium profile. The flavors tend to be subtle and easily overpowered. This particular cigar was a medium (or stronger) strength and wound up tasting a bit harsh as it didn't have enough else to balance it out. My favorite American style cigar so far has been the cigar.com house blend. An American puro believe it or not. Like I said though, that style is not my preferred blend anyway. For a milder cost-effective cigar the HC white is my favorite so far.
Interesting. Cigar.com house blend... Hmm. American Puro... double hmm. Thanks for the information @kenyth. Maybe I'll try the HC white also.
Tatuaje makes one. I forget what it's called. It was in one of our megareviews.

A no name hand roll I got many years at the Colombia Resturant in Ybor City. Probably 12 years old. It aged well. I saw the guy roll it. Was Churchill sized.
Just finished an 8-5-8 Sungrown.

binge smoked with irish79 last night:
Padron 3000N
RASCC
3/4 Padron 3000N (leftover from wifey)
Padron 26M ~ #35
Yesterday I had a DPG Cuban Classic. It was not a bad smoke, but it was my least favorite of the DPGs I've had lately. Having an LGC Medaille d'Or #4 this morning. This is a very good one if you can smoke it slow enough. Smoke too fast and it's not as good. Made that mistake with the 1st one I had.

RP Edge Maduro. Strong and aromatic blend. Burned well and lots of nice smoke.

Gurkha Warpig. Below average construction. Uneven burn and came unwrapped in the last third. Shame, it tasted pretty good. Medium body and nice nutty coffee notes.

Padron 3000 maduro
Padron 3000N last night. Padron 1926 #35M tonight. Been smoking lots of different stuff lately, nothing draws as smooth as Padron and Fuente. Why is that? Why can nobody else roll a consistently great drawing cigar? Especially Cubans. I think maybe they like resistance? I don't get it. Great flavor in others, but you have to earn it with the tight draws.
