Great beer there.  Bet that was a great pairing.

Confession time:

I smoke a lot more cigars than I post on here, I don’t post them because I enjoy a lot of NCs. Like this one I’m smoking now, it’s a Nicaraguan Overrun Maduro very cheap and tastes great with coffee.

I know this forum is more geared towards CCs, I would love to hear people’s thoughts on the posting of NCs on here. I like the community but I don’t smoke many CCs because the few I have I’m trying to age. I do feel I don’t post as much due to my assumption that you all would rather see CCs posted. Thoughts?

If you think it's worthy of sharing, do it.
NCs have their place in this wide world. I picked up a couple in the UK box pass yesterday (Brickhouse and Drew Estate) out of curiosity and will be posting my thoughts on them in time no doubt.

1. Diplomáticos No.2 LGR Abr 2018

Yes it was very young, but I had to have one 'right-off-the-truck', as they say. My, oh my, this was really enjoyable in regards to flavours. The combination of sourdough, capsicum and paprika spice melded nicely to make for a great cigar to end a busy working week.

2. Montecristo No.2 UTL Mar 2018

This was okay, not great, not bad, just okay. Why? Well the cocoa and coffee flavours were strangely muted, but the nuttiness made this redeemable. It was as if there was a quarter seco leaf missing or alternatively, a quarter volado leaf extra. That's Montecristo for you, isn't it? It can be phenomenal, it can be great and on days like this, it can be just okay.

I fired up a UTL April 18 Monte No. 2 yesterday and had the exact same experience. Being new to CC I just chalked it up to it being too young. I'm hoping your experience combined with mine doesn't signal simply bad boxes of Monte No 2 coming out of UTL this past spring. I'm probably going to let my box rest a couple more months before I try a second stick.
