tdlfoto Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 another Hamlet Custon Robusto Extras today for me
goalie204 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 just received a box of connie 1s from the Czar. Cant remeember how many of these i smoked in the past, but lit one of these up straight off the plane, and they are frickin great
riazp Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Mag 46 HQ during MNF, this cigar deleivers once again, and the skins covered the spread and under 45 pts so a very good night for me
Mr.T Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Enjoyed a lovely Trinidad Fundadore. I think the box code is IKR SEP 05. The burn, draw and construction were flawless. The smoke alternated between medium to full bodied. With 6 years of age, the strength of this cigar took me by surprise a little. There was the ever present grassy, creamy core to this smoke with some hints of pepper, nuts and subtle chocolate and honey. I know many people are divided on these, but this was a very good smoke. And they still have years ahead of them.
maverickdrinker Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 another cohiba Silgo VI today....
Lotusguy Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 HDM Coronations a/t. Pretty mild but flavorful - perfect for a morning smoke. Great draw. Fairly hard to find for some reason but worth it as a C&C.
dB69 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Party SdC#3. Excellent! Is it possible that there could be a bad one? I don't think so.
cckandb24 Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Hdm epicture 2. Nice and creamy, but the draw is crazy tight, so disapointed. Makes my jaw hurt
CBL Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Just finished a RASCC and last night had a PL Montecarlos. Need to re-up on both of them soon
KWG116 Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Hoyo de dieux July 03 Just got a 50 cab of these on Saturday. Smoked one right away and pretty good. Smoking another now and better. I have read the great reviews on these 03s and i am glad I ordered them. I think these are going to be amazing.
headstand Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Quai D'Orcay Corona ROTT. Wrapper and construction: couple of shades darker than the band, bumpy as if shrink wrapped around the filler, soft spots. Super easy draw created some anxiety about possible tunneling. I had a feeling that the cigar was perhaps a bit on the dry side. A very easy light might be confirmation. Aroma at cold: sweet tobacco and spice behind barnyard. First third: a dry spicy (hot)burn at first with good volume of light smoke right away. After a bit the flavours started to emerge; something baked with peanuts and butter but with a fruit sweetness. Perhaps it's the early fall evening but I settled on dried apples chips. Made me want to get a glass of Calvados as a pairing. Enjoying the Quai D immensely. Apart from a half cm stretch where it seemed I was drawing on air, the cigar burned evenly if a bit fast. Second third: flavours are tumbling around now as if not sure what they want to express. A core of wood or fresh fallen leaves, nuts, and at one point a blast of all-spice. Yes it must be the fall weather; is that pumpkin pie hiding in the wood core? The smoke is smooth and full. I'm thinking it is time to switch from Calvados to a rich brown ale. All is so very good - loving this. The burn has slowed down considerably. Last third: the wood core remains, as do the hints of fruit and spice sweetness, but they are much harder to find because the smoke has become very heavy and dense (reminds me of the Parti 898). The experience has become all about the texture of the smoke now. Time for a dark sweetened coffee I think. What an evolution.
Lotusguy Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Padron 1964 Anniversary Maduro A - what a huge stick! It got boring at the halfway point but at least the draw was not too loose this time.
Mr.T Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Enjoyed the last couple Behike 54s with my dad last night. Flawless burn, draw and construction. After smoking a Trinidad Funi the other night the Behike 54 posed a challenge for my jaw to the point it was a little uncomfortable. For the first half, the smoke was moderately complex. It did pick up in the second half. Very creamy with notes of leather and wood and hint of sweetness, like chocolate. I've found them all incredibly smooth cigars, which makes adds a lot to the experience. It was a very nice smoke, but I can't say that it is miles ahead of some of the other regulars in the humidor.
CBL Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Just finished a RA Superiores from a Mar '11 box. Really great mild start but got bitter towards the end. I'm guessing the '10s are a little more evened out at this point, I hope mine will get there before I finish the box
tmac77 Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Opus X corona gorda size. No idea the official name, but it was strong, leathery and delicious. I believe that would be the Opus X Fuente Fuente. Quite a strong stick.
Lotusguy Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Last night a Punch Petit Corona that I traded from Andre - very enjoyable!! Today, probably a Parti D4.
Rogers72 Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 a REALLY good HDM DC. OIK JUN 03. Highland Park 18 to wash it down. Good night at my house!
