Recently I went old school...

[guado]

I revisited a stick I hadn't smoked in years! The Rocky Patel Vintage 1990.

Man it has been a LOOOOONG time since that stick was burned in my mouth. That was the original stick that I fell in love with. Although I found it quite enjoyable it also seemed less complex than before.

Either way it was good to reminisce. Any of you done this recently?

just smoked one of these last night...

Funny, I was thinking the same thing the other day of revisiting some of my old "go to" cigars. I need to pick up some stock for the summer soon so I can rest them down to the RH I like.

Of course, this is why people say keep a journal because it will take some wondering in the humi to find what I'm looking for.

Yep, Onyx Reserve for me. Same thoughts, good but not complex enough anymore for a "go to" smoke for my current tastes.

I still enjoy LgC natural wrapper cigars. Had one last week. Still hits the spot. Also, CAO Brazillia work. I feel like I'm kinda burned out on the Excalibur 1066 line.

Oddly enough I had a RP V 1992 last night. This was the first stick for me that made me think "yea I can definitely do this a lot more often"! Still had the creaminess that I remember but you're right, the complexity seemed to drop off a little.

I need to start keeping a journal. I tried to do it when I first started smoking but because at that time I was just smoking cheap sticks when taking the dog for a walk I would never write anything down and gave it up very quickly. Now that I am taking time to enjoy a smoke and understand it a little more I need to pick it back up!

Every friggin LGC I smoke tars up like hell. From the plain line to the R to the N...I gave up smoking them.

The only ones that seemed to fair me well are the artisanos...but kinda pricey IMO.♦
