    Default Well...I had

    a DC Maximus Churchill this morning.

    Later today I'll follow up with a Signet Pyramid for lunch and after dinner a Torano Silver Torpedo Especial.

    Hey Gran Cru! ANOTHER THREE CIGAR DAY!

    It would be the Torano Exodus '59 as listed by Cigar International

    http://www.cigarsinternational.com/p...em=CS-T8&cat=3



    In smoking this one, I had no idea what nations contributed to the blend, but I accurately predicted the presence of Mexican leaf in the filler.

    The taste is medium to full-bodied, powered mainly by the H-2000 wrapper, accompanied by a complex, five-country blend of Dominican, Honduran, Mexican, Nicaraguan, and Costa Rican tobaccos.

    ****Now let's not get this thread moved o.k.?

    By the recommendation of a fellow BOTL, I had a Grand Habano Corojo #5. It is a very well priced smoke (in other words, CHEAP!). Not bad construction, burn was very even, taste was very nice (medium strength and body), tons of thick, rich smoke. I very much enjoyed it, and highly recommend it to others!!!

    Here's a couple of sources, if you're interested...

    Rocky's Cigars

    I love the Bolivar Fuerte Belicoso - but my local shop doesn't carry them I pick them up where I can. Those are a very nice smoke.

    I've not tried the Mayora, Royal Jamaican or the Maria Manicini... I've heard the Royal Jamaican is pretty mild.

    George,

    I liked the Maria Mancini Magic Mountain Cigar but the Bolivar just was a dog rocket. Maybe I just got a bad one. Check my reviews for more info.

    Diesel - the regular Bolivars just don't do it for me - but the FUERTE's - especially with some age on them...

    Sorry guys, had to do it... It was a curiosity thing more than anything else....

    I had one of the new Drew Estates Java "Waif". What a strange looking cigar!!! If you look down on it, it looks like a pox pressed cigar. When you pick it up and look at it sideways, it is wafer then.... Very strange...

    And I should have known from the shape it was going to have draw problems... The flavor was OK - not like the robusto size (for some odd reason). Thankfully I only bought one (at $4.00!). I did buy a few of the robusto size and put them away for momma....

    And I picked up a box of the Griffin's XXI today!!! I'm telling you - if you can find them latch on to them!!! This is an incredible smoke for roughly $8-9 each (in the 10 count box).

    Returned to an old favorite - the Partagas Black Label Clasico. My lips are still oily with taste. Delightful.

    George this was a Fuerte. Maybe it just wasn't aged right or maybe it was me.
