    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.
    Yay! Cigars!

    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 )

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

    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!

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