The UK....??

@ayepatz posted a thread about it last week with the info ("Attention all UK FOHers!") and it's on the FoH homepage at the bottom, but you'll need the password so ask him about that as I don't know what the protocol is on bandying it around.

No worries, cheers dude.

The family came back from their weekend away and brought me this special gift. Pairing it with a double Edmundo.

Siglo VI on my hotels balcony on the Amalfi Coast.
It’s currently dark so I wasn’t able to get a good picture. The scenery was pictured earlier at a restaurant nearby.

First time having a Siglo VI. Very elegant is what comes to mind.

I’ve smoke a lot of RASS’s over the years but for the longest time always from a cab. Went digging in my long term humidor and picked a RASS from 2009. Boxes pressed from coming from a box, not a cab so felt kinda weird but gotta say it was excellent. More spice and leather especially in the first half. Started to fall off a bit in the last third but overall very enjoyable. I have some from 2012 in the same humidor so I may give one of those a try soon to compare.

Cheap and Cheerful. My 12 year old Ronson that cost under 3.50 and  an Illusione Roth that cost me 4 bucks. Both are mighty fine. The Ronson has never failed me in all those years.

My ”a new cigar everyday” summer fest continues. This SLR Regios took me by surprise. I have to say that I really enjoyed it, for the most parts anyway. Flavour wise it reminded me of an Upmann but a little more muted. My only complaint would be that it was a little one dimensional, kind of the same problem I had with a Connoisseur No.1 I smoke earlier this summer. It stays pretty much same the whole cigar through out. And it got harsh in the last third but it’s a young stick, 2017 or 16 at most. I really would like to try a psp version of the Regios with some age to it, just to see if those flavours come alive a little more. If that’s the case I would have no problem putting this stick in to my rotation.

Yup, PM me for the password. ?

Big thunderstorms today, bringing much needed rain.   Now that things have cleared, I've decided to fire up an OPA DIC 09 Lusitania.  To accompany this fine cigar, I've poured some Backwoods Bastard Bourbon barrel stout.  Cheers all.

REG NOV 17 party shorts. This was from the recent HQ batch and smoking pretty darn good ROTT as this is my first from the cab. Cheers FoH

Enjoying a 2014 Partagas E2 while looking off to the Las Vegas strip. Only 107 degrees in the shade, time to jump in my pool. 

 

Aged 14 years, only 112 degrees outside. If only the wife would allow me to enjoy inside at a comfy 72 degrees.

As light turns into dark.. QdO Imperiales from 2014 and a RASS from 2013. QdO was not stunning but the RASS delivered as it usually does.

One of my favorite pairs...Partagas E2 and some Elijah Craig.

When it comes down to what’s a good 1hr smoke, I’m a big fan of the H.Upmann Mag 54

Something different tonight. A rare NC (for me), but a very good one. Illusione Holy Lance Candela. Picked up from our fellow forum members (and great guys) at Updown Cigars in Chicago.

Looks really nice...how do they compare to punch punch ? .....and the yanks have been getting whooped !

Generally I prefer the Punch Punch as the DC is milder and typically not as complex or bold (Punchy )This particular 2012 DC was quite a bit better than the 2014 box of DC’s I have mostly smoked from. If they were all like this one then it would be a tougher decision but based on my experiences, I prefer the Punch Punch. For a double corona my favorite currently is the RAG.

These are sneaky complex ....and pick up strength toward the end...smooth mouthfeel as well....again wanna thank@jtfrizzy for the hook up!

 

Smoking a 14 epi 2 now .....mouth feel is velvety and oily for sure as mentioned below .....flavors wane between sweet and then oppositely more earthy notes ....a current of almond one might taste a bit of salt on the tongue ......they definitely pick up in strength as you smoke them so don’t be surprised how it develops given how mild it seems to open ......a good dry box will help delineate some o. The flavors as well ....I recommend a good month at around 55-60
 

Love the tray !

A PSD4 so good I couldn’t let go...

HdM Epicure Especial TOS MAR 17.
A beautiful mild and flavoursome cigar that didn't make it into the UK sub-forum box pass (oh yes, it'll get mentioned again), which was the reason it came out of the storage section. Too late now, the box has moved on... so I thought I'd have it this afternoon rather than put it away again. Pairs well with a licorice Nespresso coffee.

LGC Paraiso and I bought some stainless steel tubos for my PJ case that I’m quite happy about.
