Had a JR Alternate to JR Ultimate Toro. (JRULT)
This one wasn't that great, however other in the same bundle were better (or I was more drunk)

Yesterday's NoVA Herf:

AF Hemingway Signature Maduro
Quinterra Petite Corona (did I get the name correct? Thanks, Mark!)
some in-between cigarillo smokes from Germany, which was freakin amazing.
San Cristobal Monumento

I have to admit, I enjoyed the San Cristobal more than the AF Hemi Sig Maddie. The Hemi probably needed more time in the Humi. Just goes to show you though, there are tons of easy to acquire sticks out there that out shines the rare HTF ones.

Smoked a CAO Italia yesterday, enjoyed smoking it a good bit, but man, it might have been the best smelling cigar smoke I have yet to experience.

Would you say the San Cristobal is worth the price difference?

Pretty good then, and certainly lasted longer than I expected from such a little guy. I didn't mind in this case since the weather was (relativly) good outside, and will be my last opportunity to get a smoke in before the weather turns nasty for a good week...

Master Cylinder,
My friends and I are hanging out in Pueblo for a few weeks. We smoked for a while yesterday around 3pm and man was that weather gorgeus. Couldn't believe it after the week we have had. Gotta love snow from sat to tuesday and then high 60's on Saturday. Crazy Colorado weather.

I think it is. I didn't get as much enjoyment from the Hemi Maddie as I did with the San Cristobal. For the price range of a San Cristobal Robusto and the ease of acquiring it whenever I want to smoke it, it's definitely worth it compared to a HTF Hemi Maduro.

We'll see after I give these Hemi Maddies one year of resting.

Yea, There is nothing like a big dumping of snow during the night, to wake up to clear skies and warm temperatures - but still have the ground covered in snow. I miss the place
