He's recovery quickly considering the nature of his injuries--but due to everything that happened, it's just going to take a while.

Pass arrived today. Threw it all in the humidor and hope to smoke it Wednesday night.

**TachyCoventry** · 04-13-2011, 08:07 AM

I'm going to be out of town until Saturday so unfortunately I won't be able to get your sig tag ready right away but don't let that stop you, smoke away!

**Alcibiates** · 04-13-2011, 07:25 PM

Got to smoke the puro tonight, and it was quite enjoyable.

When it first arrived, I was convinced it was an isom from the wrapper, but the construction pulled me away from the initial impression. While the wrapper had a slight red hue to it, the construction was much too even and consistent for what's been coming out of there lately.

Lit it up, and there was a light pepper to it, but it was still quite smooth. Probably not a Honduran, then. Work through the first half of the stick and I narrowed it down to either Nicaraguan or Dominican, but the wrapper was all wrong for Nicaragua and the final third really just didn't mesh with my experience of their smokes.

So, I'm going to have to go with Dominican!

I'm sorry, but that was a Camacho Coyolar Puro you smoked, which is a Honduran puro.

**TachyCoventry** · 04-14-2011, 02:38 PM

And the pot continues to grow! Your new sig tag will be sent out when I get back home on Saturday!

Can you post up the puts that you are going to be adding to the pass also when you get a chance?

**Mangyrat** · 04-14-2011, 04:12 PM

Damn its going to be 7 in a row when i guess wrong.

Tachy Heftysmokes is out so I'm sending the pass to Tdre977 after me.

**Tdre977** · 04-14-2011, 04:32 PM

I'm going to have to make some room in my humidor for when I win

I'm stunned

That was certainly one of the smoothest Hondurans I've ever had... and I doubly would not have guessed it was a camacho.

I'll get everything in the mail this afternoon. I've already wrapped everything up and I'm headed out the door and I forgot to write down what my puts were, but I know it's a Camacho (The one on the CA top 25), the new Illusione with Drew estates, and something from the New Orleans Cigar Factory (as is my tradition

)

**Mizicke5273** · 04-15-2011, 10:40 AM

I think the Coyolar is a different beast entirely from the rest of their lines, at least their normal stuff that I've smoked.

**Mangyrat** · 04-15-2011, 05:18 PM

Hey mangyrat here is your Dc: 0310 0480 0001 3463 2470 Alcibiates.

How strange is it that im posting my own DC #

**TachyCoventry** · 04-17-2011, 08:11 AM

I got a PM from him too about that, no worries. I still need to update the put list so when you figure it out let me know. Also Alcibates you'll be getting a PM with your sig tag either tonight or tomorrow morning!

**Mangyrat** · 04-18-2011, 10:29 AM

I think Alcibiates additions are.

Camacho corojo Churchill
Illusione, Nosotros Toro
New Orleans Cigar Factory churchill " striped/barber pol " dont know this cigar.

The pass arrived this morning and ill try to smoke the puro today.

**TachyCoventry** · 04-18-2011, 11:10 AM

Sounds right!

The striped barber pole is definitely his, I got one of those in a pass from someone else in New Orleans

They call it a Double-Wrap Churchill - last time I was in there, they only have one guy rolling those, and he doesn't roll them that often. It's a nice stick. They don't sell those on their website. Dollar-wise, it meets the reqirements of the pass.
