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

  1. Default

    I am smoking a Brazilla Amazon at my favorite cigar shop. It has a Wi-fi system that I am using for the first time. The cigar is a meduim body with a slight sweet taste. It is burning great and it has a fantastic draw.

    My friends 21 birthday, so for the occasion, we went to Book Binders(fancy lobster restaurant for those that have never been), and I pulled out a few Perdomo Champagne Cabnit Series from the aging stock. Good way to end the day.

    This week I smoked:

    CAO Brazilia Lambada - (Uneven burn, hard draw. First out of a box I bought. I hope things get better!)

    5 Vegas Double Corona - (Commuted to work and needed something to restore my faith)

    Bolivar 2005 Blend Toro - (Thanks Eric! This was tasty and took me to work on day 2)

    Padron 2000 - (Consistently pleasant)

    Best Seller - ( What is that flavor?? ahh, honeycomb from a cedar beehive!)

    LGC Wavell - (Reminded me of our old Lake Days until I accidently inhaled; then it reminded me of that time I had lunch with a couple of hobos)

    I took on a Aurora 1495, HdN Antano Gran Reserva which looked like a 40mm grenade, Trinidad Fundadore from 2000, and a Don Peppin Garcia Serie JJ today. Then I took on a Punch Rothchild maduro and one that was sent up from the DR to a guy in NY area which was then passed to be to try and review.

    Had a Acid Kuma Delux(now i see why people hate Acid Cigars). H Upmann 2000~good burn, exelent flavor. Then jsut this night i had a Bahia Vintage 1994, so much of a difference compared to the intage 1998. More flavor since its aged longer. Both great smokes though.

    Torano 1959. First one ever. Very nice, with just a little bit of spice...

    Yesterday I treated myself to a Monte#2 from the Humi, wonderfull, wish I could afford to smoke them all the time. An hour and three quarters later I was still pulling at the nub.
    I thought it was a tampon joke!

    had a Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte Pamplona last night. that was a tasty little robusto. excellent draw, lots of smoke, medium-full bodied. i liked the way the flavors seemed to just wash away with each puff. mild finish, no aftertaste. boxpress shapre fits nicely in hand too.

    Well, last night I finally got a hold of a Sherpa Mystic.....and it was not too bad.

    I don't know what I will find for tonight, but I am excited to go digging. A friend that just got here (Afghanistan) got a package from a buddy with about 10 cigars in it, and I have been promised first picks.....

    I will let you know...

    had my very first Bolivar Robusto (non-ISOM) and i could say it was simply outstanding. i really liked the flavor profile and strength, which only kept getting better until the end. could not put it to waste and nubbed it. if the rest of the sticks smoke consistently great, then this for me would easily be one of the best cigars that General Cigar has to offer.

    AF Don Carlos beli. This was the first one and it was a nice smoke. More could change my mind but I really doubt it - I like the Hemingways better.

    Tuesday

    La Unica robusto. Decent cigar - Thanks Hefty!

    Wednesday

    AF BS. Excellent, as always.
