Well, they're a bit too expensive for me to have very frequently.... unless cbid keeps serving them up at low prices.

Being somewhat new to this whole thing, I have been searching for the "go to" smoke, a good balance between quality and price. So far, I'm really pleased with the Oliveros 1927. I like the Regents more, but the price is a bit too high to have them except when there's a good deal.

Ya, the only way I would buy any Gurkha would be through CBid. Their MSRP is ridiculous.

It's 71 here in MS and sunny. So I've been sitting outside smoking a Perdomo Cuban Wheel Double Corono that I got from pubspears back in July on my birthday. I absolutely love this cigar. Listening to some Sufjan Stevens and sipping on Cognac. Glorious day.

I had a Boli Gold Medal from Ken. It was awesome, thank you Ken!

Rocky Patel Sun Grown this morning and thinking about maybe a Gurka Titan for this evening.

Over the weekend:

Gurkha Royal Brigade
Cuesta Rey Centro Fino Sungrown Torpedo
Oliva Serie G Maduro mini-belicoso
Padron 4000

I'm gonna settle in with Thomas Pynchon and a San Cristobal Monumento momentarily. I can't wait to try this one.

Good RyJ Reserva Real Churchill to start the day, followed by a diisapointingly mild Cohiba Toro....

**rsanz** · 02-18-2008, 05:13 AM

RASS on the way to work (a nice, leisurely start to the day)

3 Monte Minis during the day at breaks and lunch

RASCC on the way home

JLP Cremas right now before calling it a day.

Big smoked Rib dinner followed by a Perdomo Habano Torpedo Corojo. Good strong smoke and a nice finish. Probably one of the biggest nicotine buzzes I've gotten in a while

I'll squeeze in a Partagas 5x38 during my lunch break.

**AshLvr** · 02-19-2008, 10:06 AM

There is a Saint Louis Rey Rothchilde (54 x 5) calling my name for lunch.

**FunkyCold5** · 02-19-2008, 03:24 PM

Wonderful 3-day weekend!

02/16/2008:
San Cristobal - Toro
Like someone eloquently said, "A maduro La Aroma de Cuba".

02/18/2008:
After 18-holes of golf with my dad, I came home to a PAN 64 Corona and drank a couple Yeungling. What a beautiful day!

**Presideo** · 02-20-2008, 01:08 AM

Horrible St. Lois Rey, then a CAO Vision (hope the price goes down on these in time so I can get a box...)

**chefchris** · 02-21-2008, 08:47 PM

Last nite at a herf:
Coronado by La Flor
SLR Double Corona ISOM
HdM Double Corona ISOM

Tonight:
Edge Sumatra with some Knob Creek.
First one of these I've had and I'm enjoying it very much. It's got some spice to it. I could feel it on my lips before I took the first puff.

Got this in a trade with the Sarge. Thanks, Ken!

Now I'm going to lay my pain stricken body down and watch Planet of the Dinosaurs.

**sammis** · 02-23-2008, 10:50 PM

tried out a Tinberbox La Reserva #3 Natural. Don't really know what to think about it.

Finished the night out with a Puros Indios Pyramid Special Aged. This was a nice cigar, mainly medium with occasional burst of spice, especially toward the last third. Nice finish. Had a bit of Macallan Cask Strength along with this cigar and it made a nice match.

H. Upmann Monarch
Montecristo Churchhill (My new fav. mild cigar)
CAO Maduro (Creamy taste of Heaven....)

Good cigar day for me overall....tomorrow might be even better

**chefchris** · 02-26-2008, 07:19 PM

I'm having a Padron 64 Imperial. Sarah got me this cigar for Christmas. It's very good so far ... surprise. I'm celebrating a long day at work and getting done at 3pm instead of 4:30 because I kick ass at upholstery.

**dustinpollock** · 02-27-2008, 12:02 AM

home after the 6th 14 hour day in a row. straight to the JDN consul and a beer, skip dinner(Finley ate lunch at 4) then probably a 1495 preferdo, end the night with another consul AM then back up at 6
