I had a Griffin's XXI (limited edition - just came out). VERY NICE!!! Great draw with lots of thick smoke - great medium bodied flavor - excellent construction. They retail for about $11.00 each - well worth it!!! Smoke these if you can find them!!! But hurry - they won't be around for long... That's the only thing I hate about these cigars - you get to like them and then they're gone!!! (just like the AVO LE05 - another absolute favorite of mine!)

definitely one of the best cigars i've smoked. better than opus. without a doubt the best $10 cigar.

Hmmmm....I don't know if I really have that kind of patience/discipline!!

Maybe if I hide a couple of them at the very bottom of the humi...

Tonight was a HdM Dark Sumatra Noche (toro size). Nice smoke. Dark, chocolaty, and nutty flavors. Very good construction and flawless draw/burn. Needed absolutely no "touching up". Glad to have another one napping in my humi!

I tried to enjoy a Bolivar Belicoso but 1/3 of it was packed way to tight... After fighting with it for an hour I sparked a Hoy de Montero petite robusto. No problems there

got a little tipsy (ok, maybe really drunk) last night and couldn't finish my sancho panza caballero. i've never not been able to finish a cigar. so, i lit up the second half this morning with my espresso. first time i've ever relit a cigar. it was smokable, but not very. i feel like i wasted the half i smoked this morning becuase it tasted so much better last night.

One fine bolivar petit corona. At a family bbq

**QuietC** · 06-11-2005, 09:04 PM

alright, finally decided to have the montecristo le cigar des arts cigar, getting ready to smoke it cuz found out boxing is on tonight woo.

**MMAB** · 06-11-2005, 09:14 PM

Yeccccchhhhhhhhh!!!!

Very few cigars survive a relight of just half an hour let alone overnight!

What are you ? A sadist?!

I don't care what anyone says. Once a cigar has heated up then gone cold and then relit, it changes dramatically. ANY cigar. Some are OK for a short time, but changed. Sharper. Most taste like a campfire.

When i first began smoking i had a Big Butt cigar, and lit it and smoked less than half, then decided to smoke the rest the next morning, BIG MISTAKE, nasty as hell

**ggiese** · 06-11-2005, 11:59 PM

Had me a Vegas Robaina Famosos this evening... Nice smoke!!!

**CoventryCat86** · 06-12-2005, 12:21 AM

I smoked a Quai d'Orsay Gran Corona on the way to the Judas Priest concert tonight and an H. Upmann Magnum 46 on the way home.

I didn't have time to finish the Qd'O since I only live 25 minutes away from the Mohegan Sun where the show was.

I thought about relighting what was left but I didn't want to take the heat from MMAB

After smoking half a RP 1990 I let it go out. The next morning I sparked it and I have to agree with what you descibe, although you make it sound like a bad thing. I enjoyed it, what a wake-me-up
