Duane Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 had an NC Perdomo reserve 10th anniversary maduro, was like chewing on cocoa and coffee beans with leather to make the chew last longer
Lotusguy Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Finally a Punch Ninfas. Frigging awesome!!!!
headstand Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Monte 2: started off nice then was on and off for the last half. My box has been like that - some greats, some ok, some poor. Quay D Corona: nice and slow smoking treat.
dB69 Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 It's the last day of my winter holiday and I smoked a Hoyo des Dieux -02. Incredible smell at cold - cedar, citrus, vanilla and chocolate, but more incredible when smoked. A fireworks of every kind of flavours you can imagine including lots of truffles. And that's not all. There was a very smoky real surprise from the roller between 1st and 2nd third, but that's something I can't say publicly. My eyes are watered and my smile is almost too wide. James Brown never felt this good. The best cigar I have ever smoked - 100 points and with the surprise included 110 points. GEEZ, WHAT A CIGAR!!! A real peacemaker!
DougB Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Having an 06 Esplendido. Burning and tasting fantastic.

riazp Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Juan Lopez Suprema Canada 2011 RE this afteroon with strada, el bubble and shlomo at the LCDH in montreal. the Draw was a bit tight at the beggening but really opened up after the first third. This was a truly exellent cigar, not having much experience with the JL marca, I defenilty want to try the JL 1 and JL 2 after having this cigar. The company was amazing, truly great meeting a fellow FoH from boston, El Bubble (steve) great afternoon for sure.
Dbone Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Dip 2 from '08 and it was forgettable at best. It was "light in the hand" too. Maybe one or two puffs midway must of hit the right leaf, rest was just the tasteless Habano. Which in itself does have a flavor I've noticed. If it's tasteless there's still that cuban base to it. There's just no sizzle to the steak.
Lotusguy Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 LGC Gloriosos UK RE - posting a review shortly. Outstanding cigar!!

ramon_cojones Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Last night met up a fellow foh'er and had an 03 des dieux was good followed by an excellent 898.
Pilgrims Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 two crackers tonight...ERDM Choix L'epoque (UK 2009) - mellow and hay like but very good and then my first of the Ramon Allones Extra (LE 2011) which was as good as I have heard, rich and full with the stewed fruits and dark flavours but not harsh at all and very balanced...not bad for a monday!!
Lotusguy Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 SLR Series A - meh. Juan Lopez Sel. #1 - ditto. No boxes in my future for both.
aavkk Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 sorry to hear that Claude, I really enjoyed an 11' JL 1 earlier today. very complex and took me on a journey. right now I'm thoroughly enjoying a POS Mar 06 Partagas Connie 3. These are beautifully maturing and every time I smoke one I curse the imbiciles at HSA. I have 3 intact cabs of these and I dont think I would consider selling any even when they are $1000/box in 5 years thats how much I love em.
emopunker2004 Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Don Pepin Garcia "Cuban Classic" pretty darn good smoke
maverickdrinker Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 GREAT CIGAR DAY!!!!! 04 cohiba siglo IV and a 06 EL monte robusto from a great BOTL.
