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.

C&C ‘14 especiales. Fantastic start to the day C&C with a Monte 4 C&C time today with a Perla picked up from 24:24

Montecristo Dantes LE 2016 (SGA DIC 16). My notes:

Trying one before I put the box away for a long rest. First impressions are the construction and draw are good (may be a bit on the loose side) with a great burn to start. A little below medium in the first third and not much distinct flavors until end of first third when white pepper became the main flavor I could pick out.

Started with an ice tea and then a frozen Mojito for the rest.
Second third still mainly white pepper and light toast. Had to relight because I left it but burn still razor sharp. Strength picking up at medium or slightly above, no sign of chocolate to this point.

Final third strength still a bit above medium and in general more spicy it's the white pepper on the finish and retrohale.

Great burn all the way through and very enjoyable but lacking complexity. Time will do these good. 92 pts.

I also had a Dantes today. Overall, construction was better than the Monte 80 that I tried recently. However, still felt slightly under-filled. I think this is the new norm for Cuban cigars going forward.

Started rally flat and improved second half. I did go deep on these, happy with the decision so far.

2001 CoLa courtesy of @archosaur This is what cigars are all about; perfect draw, perfect construction and smoke so smooth the retrohale is like breathing flavored air. It started out very light and floral with body picking up along the way and complexity like I've never had before, flavors all over the place. This is probably the best cigar I've smoked, thank you for the opportunity @archosaur, cigar bliss!

Very glad you enjoyed the experience my friend!  If only they could all be like that! :cigar:

Exactly my thoughts while smoking, imagine if this is what all cigars were like? If theres any way I could return the favor I'd be happy to help with anything you're short of in your collection

Tatuaje TAA 2016 Toro, followed by a PRA FEB 11 Monte 4. 

The Tatuaje was a disappointment, basically a poor knockoff of a Padron Anniversario. The Monte was better by a country mile.

On the same note (in reverse order). Smoke the 2017 TAA (this year's still has the 2014 band but with a slight motification) as a second cigar today. It is what it is, it won't turn a palate like mine onto domestics but it isn't a bad cigar.

For my first cigar I broke open a box of 2009 HdM Epicure Especiales. Sooo much flavor, a treat in every meaning. Candy like. This might have put me over the edge on buying the new Seville jar.63326ffa3fbb03dd45204736d25311eb.jpgfb52c4bf5cd5180cb805996c409af97f.jpg
