Another RASCC after lunch while out running errands.
And a JLP Cremas on the way home.
Today? Dunno yet, off to a BBQ tonight where we'll be smoking it up big time....
Had a San Cristobal tonight. Had hints of Chocolatey Cherryness imo. And just the slightest puff brought tons of thick creamy smoke. Makes me Glad i bought 2 of em.:smiley17:
Had a Siglo IV, it was good but would have been a lot better with a margarita.
Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Robusto. The burn was frickin' terrible though. probably had to mess with it like 5 different times.

A couple of Monte minis during breaks
Tried smoking an RP 90 on the way home but couldn't get past the 1st 2cm before biffing it (not as much burnt rubber taste as the 92 but still too much for me now).
I think I'll just stick to i s o ms for the time being.

Not a lot of flavor. I was promised by the Perdomo Rep that it was full bodied and they couldn't keep them on the shelves long enough. Maybe I didn't give it enough rest in the coolidor, but wasn't too thrilled about it. Oh well, wouldn't buy it again, that's for sure.
Last night: A Camacho Corojo Monarca and a few glasses of The Macallan 15 year fine oak scotch.
Don Kiki Green Label tonight. Hadn't ever had one before. It was a little mild for my taste but pretty good overall. Especially since it was a gift (Thanks spyderman!!).
Sancho Panaza Double Maduro & a Padron 3000.
Sat outside on the deck and had those with a glass of Captian n' Coke while watching the last 2 episodes of the Sopranos 6th season part 1. This is starting to become a weekly thing for me, and frankly Im likin it alot.:smiley4:

DG
CAO Sopranos Soldier
Flor de Olivia Maduro
Both were excellent smokes, Ill definetly be buying some boxes of these. Especially the Oliva since its such a good smoke for the price.
I had a diamond crown robusto #5 last night to celebrate the Gators victory over Kentucky, it was decent, but not the greatest. I paired it with some great coffee, some chocolate and of course with a win from an awesome football team. Go Gators.
It's been a long weekend including a drunkin road trip* to see Motorhead in beautiful Taranaki so my memory is a little hazy but, to the best of my knowledge...

Yesterday:
Indian Tabac Classic Tomahawk during the ALCS game (way to blow it Tribe!)
CAO Mx2 late night with the guys outside the bar.
Those Mx2's are probably my favorite cigar. I love the fact that they burn so cool and the flavor is awesome. So if anyone decides to bomb me.....you know what to do. lol :smiley37:
Today:
5 Vegas Gold
Gurkha Nepalese Warrior
Side Note: Im lovin these Vegas Golds, they are such a great casual smoke...
And those napes, wow, talk about some flavor..
Hidalgo Corona
really good stick for a dollar. first off the cello was a nice yellow tint so it had some age.
more important it had one of the evenest burns i've had yet ; held a ash like a champ too.
the strength was a medium strength to me with earthyness being the main flavor.
glad that the b+m has like 40 more of em so i know where to get more :smiley17:
Cusano Corojo 1997.
Had this a few days ago, a good smoke.
Last Night I had a Excalibur Dark Knight I. Was a fantastic smoke. Think I maybe buying me a box of these soon, along with a bunch of other smokes.
Sunday night I Had an Astral Talanga Valley Selection while watching the new transformers movie. Fantastic smoke as always, no wonder its one of my favorites. By the way the Transformers movie was awsome, gona be watchin it again tonight while doing some of my expenses for this trip.
Saturday, we hit up Atlantic City for a while since were so close. Had a Flor de Olivia while playin some slots. If it wasnt for the fact that I had a great cigar and didnt feel like leavin I probably would have only lost a few dollars instead of $40. Also had a RyJ Reserva Real as well outside the casino while takin a break and cooling off.
had an Excalibur 1066
My most recent:
Cusano 18 paired maduro, Gordo - Not bad but not great. It didn't have much complexity, the flavor stayed the same all the way thru. The flavor was rather sharp though it did mellow about half way in. It did not have any hint of maduro sweetness. Burned evenly, drew well and produced a satisfying amount of smoke. I've tried several of the Cusano line and none of them have really impressed me. I think I shall be moving on.
Drew Estates Natural, Root- I've been rather curious about these Drew Estates Naturals for a little while now. The "Root" was the only one type the shop had so I picked it up. I have to say that I actually liked it! It is a robusto size with a fuzzy, uneven foot ant this caused it to burn a bit unevenly at first. But over-all it burned and drew well. It is a medium bodied stick with straight up tobacco taste combined with pronounced earthiness. I'm definitely going to try out some more of what this line has to offer.
Cheers!
an Torano Exodus 1959 with my cousin from utah
and he a had Hoyo de Monterrey
this morning...
some bundle cigar (I can't remember which) before riding round the bays
JLP Cremas before hitting a hundred balls at the driving range
Red label on the way to a late lunch.
RAG on the deck with a mate.
Not a bad Sunday.
Nothing too exciting, here. Tried a Punch Pita size Rare Corojo vs. a Reserve. They were remarkably alike, with maybe just a little extra spice from the corojo. Yep. I like the Punch.
RASCC with a nice espresso on the way to work
JLP Cremas while out and about
Nic3K after visiting Mum in the hospital, much nicer with a few months humi time (the Nic3k, not my Mum)
RASCC and Cohiba Siglo 1 with beer and Ardbeg winding down out on the deck
I bought some Blenders Gold Churchill Maduros today, cheap smoke, good smoke, I just switched from a Pipe, I liked the English Tobaccos in my pipe, but Im really enjoying Cigars. I hope to find some good Cigars like you talk about,
I just finished off a Camacho Corojo 07/05. A little baseball bat packed full of goodness!!!
camacho corojo petit...would have been better if the wind hadn't been blowing so hard
