Habanos2000 Posted October 24, 2011 Posted October 24, 2011 I had a frickin miserable day yesterday, started out by trying a custom roll that was plugged. No matter what I did, the damn thing wouldn't draw. Then reached into the humi for a 898V, and that was plugged too! It's been at least a couple years since I've had a plugged cigar, to have 2 in the same day almost brought me to the point of ending it all!!
Sam92 Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 diplomaticos no 2 for me tonight really good smoke, Good night to all.
Lotusguy Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 HDM Regalos LE 2007 - totally disappointing - nothing at all to do with the HDM flavor profile that I like. No wonder they are still available almost 5 years after release.
Lotusguy Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 I let my Pro Stogie iPhone app randomly pick my smoke tonight and it picked a PL Montecarlos - very, very enjoyable! Can't believe they are so cheap...
LLC Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 March 2007 Cohiba Siglo I, always have enjoyed these and this was another excellent example.
Lotusguy Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 SP Bachilleres from 98 and a Cueto custom roll - I posted reviews on both
headstand Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 Catch up time: Friday night a completely forgettable NC. A Boli CJ saved the evening. Saturday night an average but satisfying Boli PC (this box seems to have issues with the occasional super filled and tight cigar) Sunday night I gave the Ramon Allones Cellestiales a try - same path that the video review went down, but I wasn't prepared to go the distance like Rob and Smithy. For the hardcore collector who is prepared to wait a decade easy. Monday sitting in the sun and reading a novel with a JL Sellecion #1. I am really liking this cigar. Tuesday, more Boli satisfaction with a better PC. Tonight, Another Boli PC that hit the mark in every respect: text book look, flavor, burn. Nubbed. Man it's nice being on vacation...
CBL Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 Yesterday had a PL Montecarlos for lunch which was great but had a horrible draw and ended the evening with a '11 RA Superiores that completely knocked me on my ass. WAY too strong and young, yet I keep trying them....
Schumi5 Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 Boli PC tonight. As usual, fails to disapoint. Solid, consistent cigar. A humi staple.
Ghabanos Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 By far the best siglo 6 ever.. Watching Boston Legal
kiwiman911 Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 smoked a RA superios that I got from a box pass. was a bit dissapointed the draw was very tight but the flavor was nice loosened up in the last third will have to try one more to see
Lotusguy Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 ERDM PC - like smoking Nutella (roasted hazelnuts) and now a Boli PC. Yum!
maverickdrinker Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 smoking a siglo IV to celebrate winning a kindle and some moolah at the casino tonight.
CigarAsh Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 Weather is turning colder here in the Midwest so going to my quicker smokes for my evenings on the deck. 2 nights ago was a terrific Monte Petite Edmundo. Easily my favorite short smoke. Of the 2 boxes I've gone through, I've been amazed at the consistency of the construction and flavors. Just great cigars. Last night I broke into the FOH cab of PL PCs from the summer. What a wonderful PC. Light but terrific floral characteristics, great flavors. Draw was a little tight but eased for the last half. Definitely will be a regular in the short smoke rotation.
beamer Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 Boli PC yesterday afternoon. I think it was from an 11 box. First third was excellent- usual Bolivar earthiness, pepper, slight citrus. A tad harsh, probably due to the age. Second third was boring. It was like the cigar just disappeared. Final third picked up again with more leather, salt, and pepper. Probably just a little young.
Skitalets Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 LFDC petit corona. One of my favorite C&Cs. Had a Tatuaje Unico (brown label) at the shop but wanted a short smoke at home before dinner and it's hitting the spot.
Lotusguy Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 RyJ Cazadores - I survived Dip 4 - very enjoyable Probably a Monte #1 tonight (breaking my "no more than 2 cigars per day" rule but had a rough evening with the wife...)
maverickdrinker Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Trinidad 40th anniversary and a SLR RE Asia Pacific Piramide tonight while watching game 7
tmac77 Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 A most excellent 2006 Bolivar Gold Medal last night
dB69 Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Ramon Allones Allones Extra EL2011 - ABR JUN11. Picked up a try-out today and converted it to ash almost immediately. An old-school cigar. Lots of ligero used in the blend IMO. Very spicy, very salty and huge amount of nicotine. Very young - yes, four months. I bet these will be excellent cigars after some years, they definitely need time to rest. HSA has made good work this time!
riazp Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 the defenitly did an awesome job with the RA LE...44 rg, thank you! old school band looks awesome. i might have to pick up two boxes and keep one for looong term storage. from what i've read, these have amazing aging potential.
maverickdrinker Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Thanks for the review on the RA Allones Extra. Got one resting. Will smoke in a couple of weeks. Tonight, a2003EL Cohiba double corona
