RP Vigilante Torpedo Corojo
Another sun grown that I can see why others like, but they do nothing for me other than make me crave one of my Gurkhas. I'm slowly smoking the less desirables in my humis, and replacing them all with Gurkhas.
CAO America Potomac.:smiley20:
Was my first one and was pretty darn good. Was surprised, it burned alot more evenly than I would have thought.
today: Case Fuente King B :) very nice
5 Vegas Apostle

Oliva Serie V Torpedo
A great cigar, but just a bit too much for my current taste. Strength of flavor and nic content more than I care for currently.
Started the 4th with a Reo robusto with my morning coffee.
Early afternoon I had a RP fusion mm.
While watching the 4 fireworks displays visible from my back yard overlooking the valley, I enjoyed a Padron Anny Imperial maddy.
As I type this, I'm nubbing a Camacho 11/18 triple maduro.
Casa Torano Robusto
Gurkha Class Regent (Churchill), I forget the size

I like the REO's .... don't know if I'd be having them first thing in the morning, though. :smiley11:Quote:

Yesterday, I had a Vegas Cubanas Generosos and a DPG Series JJ Belicoso.
Always a buzz kill when a stogie has burn/construction issues. Sorry to hear, Chef.

The REO's are one of my current rotation "cheap" smokes.

5VG in the yard today.
Smoking a Padron 1926 #6 while passing the time on the BB.
Joya De Nicaragua Antano belicosa - HOLY SMOKES!
There was no way I would finish this beast - was a good smoke, but left me dizzy!
Grabbed a Belinda on the way to the bar and enjoyed a New Playboy by Don Diego followed by a Gurkha Ancient Warrior at the bar, I should have brought more. I stayed almost two hours after I stubbed the Gurkha.
Yesterday was a social and busy work day....got to enjoy ( 3 ) Sir Winston Churchill's No. 10 by Davidoff :smiley41::smiley41::smiley41:
Tried the first of the Trinidad y Cia Toros that I got Monday from JRCigars. Was quite dry, should have waited longer, the foot was cracked and it seemed to be rolled rather loose and the draw was extremely light. Had a decent leathery taste upon the pre-light draw. Burned quite evenly, but quickly (dryness I guess). Had the same taste of leather throughout with a hint of cedar. The aroma was decent as well. Pretty good cheap smoke. Gonna wait another week or two to try another then let the others sit for quite some time to see if they improve any. If they don't it's still worth the less than a dollar a stick I paid.
Anyone else try these?
