Tonight's smoke, one of my favorites. A sadly discontinued 2009 Rafael Gonzalez Coronas Extra. Such a great smoke you hear very little about. Glad I grabbed a box.

I never tried the Raphael Gonzalez.  I had a chance to get the Petit Corona.  Would you recommend me pulling the trigger on them?  Also, what Marca does it most resemble?

An RE Friday with @Nate Chu C&C for a Saturday morning with this Sir Winston from 03. Today is going to be great if this cigar is anything to judge it by. What a super smooth star

First cigar of the year.

Just finishing a Juan Lopez Seleccion #1 from Oct 07. Wow what a good cigar. Once again, FoH has steered me in the right direction. Couldn't be happier with the smoke.

Jealous of you.

I had to come back. This was truly a teribble cigar. Ash would not hold on. Tunnel burn and strange hollow tunnels throughout. Beetles? No popping though. Had to relight several times. Disappointed.

Dip 2 from 2014; one of my favorite smokes I own.  However, this one the burn was terrible; it burned from inside all the way through.  Outer leaf never stayed lit.  Never had this happen before and my buddy had one at the same time that was flawless.  IMG_1023.JPG

Had a Party Short but was plugged so I pitched it, very unusual for a Party Short. Replaced it with a POU MAY12 HQ Cohiba Siglo I and as always a great choice when short on time.

I am shocked that a cigarillo can be that good. Cohiba Short. Will be stocking up majorly. Unlike most puritos I have tried, no harshness at all.

Thanks for the assessment! Hopefully not just a short-lived OR-thingy! Will certainly have to grab some.

2014 Sir Winston. Stellar, but 80% of the box I picked this single from was underfilled with soft spots - I would not buy a box blindly.

You said it! You really wonder what they did to the SWs recently - '14/15/16-prod. either under- or overfilled, so that you very carefully have to select boxes, if at all possible to find a consistently good one (for that reason, I've frustratedly abstained from doing so recently and turned to picking singles only). Can't be so tricky to roll a Churchill. Sometimes it appears as if they let them be made in the training department.... No idea, perhaps it's in the particular tobacco used in this blend, as you are never, virtually never facing similar issues e.g. in the Boli CG.

My first Monte 3 from the Spanish Jar. Very nice. Just a good Monte 3, nothing more, nothing less.

Well, what else to expect from a repacked Monte 3.... B)
