Fugu Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Met with Gary (LLC) at the Mirage. Always nice to meet up Smoked a wonderful Boli 5ta Avenida RE Alemana. Always a treat. This IS a good one, although it was a very polarizing one. Not sure, whether that has changed perhaps meanwhile.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olotti Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 BBF JUN 00!!!! What an amazing cigar. I've held onto this for years tonight just seemed like as good as any. It's creamy, velvety, coffee laden and still has some nice pepper spice and it is pure bolivar. Probably one of the best cigars I've had in a long time. Blows away the box of 18yr old BCE's I just finished recently. I need me more BBf's, done right they just satisfy in every way. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post torsion Posted January 8, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2016 A few days late on posting these. Monday night solo visit to the Corintha hotel. Great covered outdoor space with heaters/blankets, excellent beverage menu at reasonable for London prices and their own well stocked humidor. Best thing with this place is you can bring your own with no cutting fee. First up was the Cohiba Piramides extra (think this one '14). Another first for me and there's nothing you can fault with Cohiba when they're on. Initially when I received the two sticks I have from a split, the ring gauge put me off but the tapering certainly helps. Enjoyable and super smooth, I read some people find a lemongrass twang which I can relate to, grass and cream with some vanilla, bloody nice but then again at that price it should be. Followed up by a Secret Santa gifted Padron. I don't smoke Padron often but this stick really was good especially smoking mainly Cuban these couple of weeks it was a welcomed change of pace and flavour profile. I'd buy a box if they weren't so expensive (I always seem to be comparing CC vs non CC for value) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torsion Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Having done the scouting mission the night before, I went back to the Corintha on Tuesday night with Ian who is a colleague/friend/BOTL. I bought the sticks, first up was a Trini Reyes (not pictured) from '09,smooth and delicious and only about 3 left!Second was a '14 Partagas 898 which smoked wonderfully and the best one I've had since I got the box.Ian loves Partagas and I was glad he enjoyed this one as it was his first 898. Being a faster smoker and generally a greedy git, two wasn't enough so I pulled out a '14 Siglo IV. Last one of these I smoked was back in June last year on my birthday and that experience was crap. This one however was excellent and had my thinking cap on in wondering what difference another few years would make on these. Only just days before was I thinking of moving these on, I really am loving this hobby of seeing the progression with all sticks and time. Oh and consistency with Cuba is like Russian roulette haha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotusguy Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 This IS a good one, although it was a very polarizing one. Not sure, whether that has changed perhaps meanwhile.... First couple I had in 2010/11 did nothing for me. When I revisited in 2014, I was converted. Unfortunately, by then they were HTF and I had to pay secondary market prices 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easttide Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I had a 2011 Connie 1 this afternoon while doing some work in the garage which went very quickly so I followed it up with my first Bolivar Petit Corona from a 2015 ULA box which was surprisingly light following the Upmann. Both very nice. No pics today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
