What are those Ashton Cameroons? Ashton makes a puro sole that USED to be made with a Cameroon (but now with habano)...but I'm not familiar with any other Cameroons from Ashton.

So I like to have little stogies with a cup of coffee. These are pretty much cheroots. So far the Olivas I got were the closest tasting to what they actually claim they are. These Ashtons are fast burning little buggers. They are as Cameroon as Panda Express is Chinese food.

I have some Classico Toscanos which are my favorite little coffee cigar. The next ones I will try are the Partagas Chicos which I have never had.

I guess I might 🤷 as well be going to cigar hell with everyone else. 

Haha, I would say "come in the waters lovely?"...but we all know the water is actually "sort of ok, with the occasional shitty nappy floating by!"

Bummer to hear, I'm always interested in new cammi sticks. But thanks for the info. As far as small format cigars, I might recommend the Davii Winny C Belicoso tins that are pictured in @westg 's post right below your response to me. They are much larger than a cheroot, but they are solid 30-45 minute smoke. As a bonus, the ridiculously high price of the Davi belicosos really help make you feel like you are at least paying for a true large format experience. I like to use the tins to save extra shirt buttons and the pittance of my pay-check that's left over after paying for the devils.

No idea, haven’t tried one yet. Signature No. 2 are some of my favourite cigars, so I figured I’d give these a go.

Not a bad pickup for $200. Almost everything is new to me or has been years since trying it as I'm still trying to find reliable, daily, go-to NC cigars. So many, maybe even to many options in the NC space. Exciting and frustrating at the same time.

Those Aging Room Sonatas are out of this world.

Where did you find them? I've been looking for those for a while.

PM him directly. As per our forum rules, we don't mention retailers directly due to the possible legal ramifications for our board.

They’re interesting. I would say the most uniques flavor I picked up was peat. As in Lagavulin peat.

Agreed and my initial thoughts were that they’d benefit from some aging.
