Trinidad Ingenios 2007 EL

Leather character to start, becoming strong and quite powerful after the first third. Made my head spin, and not in an enjoyable way. The ash was near black for large portions of this cigar, I did not find it a good smoke.

Perhaps it needs more time, but I doubt I will give it another shot. Can't hold a candle to the Trini Fundi or Robusto Extra.

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

Sat on the front porch as it rained last night smoking a Punch Super Robusto 2007 RE Exclusivo Asia Pacifico while watching "Damage" starring "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. A good friend of mine wrote the screenplay to the movie. It was a bit too 80s kitsch for me, especially for a 2009/2010 release. I'd have to say my favorite screenplay/movie of his is "The Cooler" that starred William H. Macy, Maria Bello and Alec Baldwin. Now that was a great flick.

Just about every movie with a wrestler or X wrestler in it sucks...no matter who wrote it,directed etc etc....

Did Stone Cold give anybody the "Stunner" during the flick?

Last night I smoked a Bolivar Simone 2008 RE Canada. Started out great for about the 1st inch, then bleech. Not impressed.

just put away an SLR DC, unknown age.

Raced through it without really realising, took an hour n 20 min or so. Milder than I expected, but some pleasant cedar/tobacco/nut flavours coming through, with a bit more depth a the end. Solid 88.

Cohiba Sig VI, probably from 07. great Cohiba flavor profile, medium body, dense smoke. For whatever reason the ring gauge was a bit uncomfortably large. Probably due to the fact that I've been enjoying smaller gauges recently. A solid 90 points nonetheless.

Last night smoked a Cohiba Maduro 5 Genio. Good, but have had better. I have to admit though that my love of maduros that started with NCs does not translate as well when it comes to CCs.

This afternoon: a Partagas Lonsdale from an '02 cab.

One of the best cigars I've had for a while.

I smoked one from a NOV 02 cab while taking a long walk today. One of my favorite cigars.

Boli RC Tubo that was underfilled and pitched. :clap: I feel used tonight.

Though I have a cab of 07 Shorts, I have not smoked a single one since I stocked up on 99 Partagas TPCs.

Today though, an 02 Bolivar CG- slow burning & earthy. Yum.

Smoked another H. Upmann Magnum 46 last night. After a bunch of disapointing ones, finally saw the light. Clean tobacco, mild leathery and earthly, under medium. Really enjoyable. Didn't finish all that well, but the box is still fairly young.

Bolivar Royal Corona the night before. Very solid, great Bolivar flavour but not as strong as the BBF.

I've noticed the same thing. I use to smoke primarily Maduro NCs but since I started smoking CCs I prefer the lighter shade wrappers.

Just smoked Upmann Sir Winston. Excellent smoke, great development of flavors throughout the whole cigar. I think this may be my next box purchase

Easter Sunday, after lunch - a 2000 Partagas Pyramide EL from the PCC vintage release program.

Yesterday had a perfect spring weather and the following cigars met their destiny...

Bolivar Petit Corona: Long time no seen! Flavour bomb!

RyJ Short Churchill: Boring! It was OK but nothing more.

Cohiba Siglo III: Really nice relaxing smoke. Paired perfectly with me being quite tipsy.

Punch Petit Corona: Best of the whole bunch! I love the sweet-tobacco-punch flavours!! Winner!!

Will you not need an iron lung after all those.........

Bolivar belicosos fino for breakfast...yum.
