LLC Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 RA 898 this afternoon and a Boli Simones tonight. Both great.
bolivr Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Punch Punch MPE Oct09. The first from a box of 10 tubos bought in Cuba. Been a looong time since I smoked a PP. They were much more popular about 10 years ago when even the Governator nominated them as his favorite. They also had a larger more handsome band. Since then I had heard they were going through a rough few years and the quality was poor - plus I had so many other Corona Gordas to try. This one today has been an enjoyable smoke, not quite like how I remember the PP being a lovely sweet aroma from the wrapper but a worthy addition to the collection. Smooth, mellow and medium bodied.
Rushman Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Smoked two very nice Trini Reyes today. Very herbal and tea leaves
LGC Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 RYJ Corona with some age on it. I'm not much of a reviewer. I'll just say that the Romeo blends, of times gone by, never disappoints...
Strada Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Trini Reyes which was ok.... this box been crappy. Hoyo des Dieux 08 and this box is gettting better and better...
Lotusguy Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 This afternoon my first H. Upmann Monarca a/t from 2002. It was outstanding - if anything, even better than the Sir Winstons I've had from the same year. Wonder if the newer years that are still available some places are as good as these... Smoooooooooth. Now a delicious RAE. Phuket has been good for my cigars so far, it seems
Kosh Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Back to CCs now. Ending the weekend with a Partagas Shorts -11. Paired with a Scarecrow and a splash of Guillon. Nice.
aavkk Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 enjoying this Fathers Day watching the Open with an 02 RA 898... in a perfect 76 degree day in Charleston, SC.
cckandb24 Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 BBF this afternoon and a lovely 08 dip2 while watching the NBA finals
Ophidion Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Plpc. I was going to smoke a super Ramon but I ended up going to Atlantic city for an impromptu trip. Plpc delivers as always, although it makes it hard to age a box.
ramon_cojones Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Smoked an 09 sig vi just bc I was in the mood. Was nice but I always hate the last third and size is too damn big. I feel like there is such a immense difference between 50 and 52 rg, the former I love the latter I hate.
Mr.T Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Had a wonderful Partagas Serie P last night from an 2011 box that has been nothing short of brilliant.
Lotusguy Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Still no pics since it was too dark in the dive bar in Patong RG CE, followed by a RG PC. Both were great but the little brother was better
GernBlansten Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 For fathers day I had my first SCDLH - La Fuerza. An enjoyable smoke that I found creamy throughout with a floral hint about half way in. Would have nubbed it but an awesome summer storm rolled in that had me running for the house.
Bartolomeo Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Some freshies lately.....11 Sig VI, 11 Serie A, 11 Punch Punch......all pretty good and enjoyable Bart
phoenix Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Tonight I enjoyed a NC Monte Reserva Negra. Better than any Cuban Belicoso I've had of late by a stretch. Sad but true. Paired it with a rare 1960's 21 yo Glenfarclas!
ramon_cojones Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 ^awesome had a gorgeous rass well because I am the rASS man this 09 box has been hit or miss, smoked it in my boxers on my patio in 82 degree heat and almost passed out before I realized I had a lit cigar in my hand, I was exhausted
