Thanks James.

Cool, I'm not losing it!!! I figured at first the #1 was a Monte Cristo, but I've never had a small MC with a nice draw. I find 'em too tight. I didn't think of the Party Short for #2 because of the "milder" start.

Well Jim has put me to shame, both with the quality and promptness of his review, not sure if this is going to help my case much either.

Crappy weather has kept me from smoking this stick (#1) for a while, but finally the clouds clear and I am able to clip the cap from this churchill (7⅛" 46(?) RG), again a lovelly colarado maduro wrapper with an easy pre-light draw.

First draw on this after lighting gave me an almost sweet (burnt sugar) flavour and plenty of body, but this did not last long. For the most of the cigar I got leather and pepper and a lot of well bodied smoke. The stick burnt incredibly well and easily dealt with a sip on the smoke every three to five minutes, such an even burn circle.

As I came into the last two inches the smoke became a bit sour and acrid, and I stubbed with an 3/4 inch left.

All in all a very nice smoke, definately in the medium to full range as it left me feeling kind of full.

On the comparison between the two cigars, I would have to say that i prefer #1 as it just seems to fit my taste range better, and given a better day with my pallate I think that I could have really got a lot out of it. Given the distinctive shape of #2 I guessing that it was a Trilogy and the cheaper cigar, but if it was what my research led me to believe, then it is damn good value for money.

Thanks for the opportunity Dan and I look foward to learning what these sticks were.

Great revews man

You are right on the money with #2 -- Trilogy Corojo ( although not the best cigar out there, still a very good deal for the money IMO )

#1 was in fact the more expensive one AVO maduro. I also agree that it is a very pleasant smoke and I am glad you enjoyed it

Review These From Newfie

Ok well I started the review these today I started with #1 it was a short cigar about 5" with a small ring gauge it snipped really well it lit kinda hard at first the draw was tight and the burn was a little uneven for me at the start the taste was not real good at first then about the second half it really started to develop and burn evenly but really it was over to quick for me as far as what kind of cigar it was I would have to guess some kind of Cohiba I am not a real big fan of short small cigars as far as rating this I would have to say on a scale of 1-10 I would have to give it a 4 I will post #2 as soon as get a chance to review it
