Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk I recently went on a little Fuente kick. I love the rosado sungrown. Once the eye of the shark won COTY, I went through a few Hemingway, Gran Reservas, and Don Carlos to see how the flavor profile compares across those lines with Cameroon wrappers. I have enjoyed returning the experiments. 4
havanaclub Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 Cigars I've enjoyed lately... 1. Cohiba 1966 EL 2011 (thanks [mention=1158]Trevor2118[/mention]) [mention=14583]GreenPosiden[/mention]) [mention=1537]Fuzz[/mention]) [mention=1158]Trevor2118[/mention]) [mention=9305]khamy[/mention]) I must acknowledge and thank Kam for the opportunity to smoke this cigar. The Partagas 8-9-8 has not been around lately as in the past, but I really love the Dalia vitola (43 ring gauge x 170 mm). It was also not overpowering in anyway, with a lovely "Partagas DNA" sourdough, coffee and leather throughout.How was the HDMDC John? Just picked up a box and can’t wait to get my hands on them to smoke. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
Popular Post Akela3rd Posted January 23, 2018 Popular Post Posted January 23, 2018 Monte 4 (AEM MAY 14)Proving to be an excellent box from a 24:24 a couple of months ago. And my new ashtray, which my wife hates as its "70's tat" but I think is pretty damn groovy. Thunder & Lightening '75 - '15 15

Popular Post thedame007 Posted January 23, 2018 Popular Post Posted January 23, 2018 Cheeky little HUHC braving the outdoors. This little fella has settled down after his rest, and it’s full of cream, wood, but still got a spicy bite on the retrohale 11
Popular Post encephalization Posted January 23, 2018 Popular Post Posted January 23, 2018 Vegueros El Laguito No. 1 from 2001. This box has been hit or miss when it comes to construction but I found a good one this morning. First third was a bit muddled (past its prime?) but it sure revved up and I had a hard time putting it down at the end.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk 11

If it were up to me I think I wouldn't have them up to 15 years of age rested because I would have smoked them all! At this age, the 15 year old HdM Double Corona blend was light on chocolate or cocoa and coffee, but emphatic on graham cracker or biscuit. There was a very nice cream texture to it. I think you won't be disappointed trying a few right out of the box. I had some recent examples less than 2 years old and they've been great too. 3

Great draw, Good burn, The pre draw had a bit of a sweetness to it from memory. Very nice nutty/almond and cocoa flavour and just a touch of caramel in it. At the end (nub) I experienced some slight woody and toasted tobacco notes. Very nice cigar and will be interested to see how they age. 2
