Thread: Today's smokes......

    2 weeks in my humidor. One side burnt faster than the other, actually just a 4mm strip burnt real fast. May have been a stem or something. Not sure. I was very disappointed in it. The draw was a bit tight but I have dealt with that on many cigars. Hopefully just a fluke, I will be looking for another from another vendor soon.
    May your ashes be long and your smoke be plentiful...

    I smoke a LOT of Hemingway's and I cannot think of a time I ever had that experience. Very strange.

    I have found many cigar shops either tend to overhumidify or that cigars are perhaps being shipped to them "wet". I always leave new cigars in my humidor for at least a month or two to stabilize. I don't even touch Opus X's for at least 6 months since they all seemed to be rather wet when I buy them. Since I started doing that - I've noticed my "issues" have substantially disappeared...

    I bet he'd have no problem if that sucker was rolled by a machine.

    Partagas Chicos. Nice little machine-made smoke (after it sat for quite a few years).

    Had to go to the big city yesterday so I met up with my younger brother at our favorite B&M and I had the following:

    Going to visit my hunting partner and good friend Greg to work on my whitetail's antlers (need to get them on the wall) and my new rifle.

    I'm planning on having a H. Uppman Magnum 48 while I'm there. If he's lucky, I'll bring him a Padron 3000 Robusto

    Torano Salutem in Toro I believe. Loved the first one hopefully this one is just as good. I let this one rest for a couple of weeks.

    MC #5 JUN 10 - While the Trini Reyes and ERdM Lunch Club remain my favourites in this (approximate) size, these #5's are challenging the Party Short as a go-to. I am beginning to think that all of the Cuban Minuto/Perla's are worthy (except the Siglo I, which has been an over-priced harsh-burning poorly-rolled cardboard-boxed PoS in my experience).

    Los Statos de Luxe Delerios Feb 99 - cheap machine-made. Still strong after all these years.

    Boli Short Boli Oct 08 - a couple years have made a vast improvement , but still nothing great.

    Romeo y Julietta Churchill Tubo, while watching the 1st half of the Denver / San Diego game. I enjoyed it.
