Rushman Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Last evening smoked the last diplo 2 from an 09 box....it was a coffee bean explosion and paired very well with about 6 Bohemia beers. What a good evening it was. A friend and customer had a RASS and a Boli Beli. This is what life is about. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=20.631698,-87.070677

Lotusguy Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Punch Descobridores RE Portugal. Not bad but seemed a bit too young.
canadianbeaver Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Gary I put that one in! Brought it home from our trip to Paris. Hope it was a good one for you. We liked them a lot.
Vcool Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Yesterday ended up being a Punch Punch from a recent Canadian box pass

phoenix Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Had a great time at the GTA MegaHERF II this weekend! Smoked quite a few cigars and traded for some killa sticks. Two standouts were a LCDH RA Superiores and a 00 RG Lonsdale.
investandprosper Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Smoking a superb Party 898V from an '11 box. I don't have the time to smoke these often, but I can't remember the last time I had a bad one. So consistently good.
canadianbeaver Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Taking a break from working on a 5 foot x 2.5 foot painting to smoke a R&J Cazzie http://instagr.am/p/Nt0PyFi1mb/

LLC Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Another cigar from the premium raffle this one is an April 2009 Trini Robusto Extra.
Mr.T Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Down to my last 2 HDM DCs from 07 They have been wonderful.
DougB Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 '11 RASCC- not too shabby '10 ERDM Choix Supreme. Not one of the best I have had but pretty decent nonetheless.
nikesupremedunk Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Had a great time at the GTA MegaHERF II this weekend! Smoked quite a few cigars and traded for some killa sticks. Two standouts were a LCDH RA Superiores and a 00 Sancho Panza Lonsdale. Are those snakeskin boots?

esse Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 You really do have some secret don't you, perfect burn lines
Ophidion Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 His secret is that he doesn't buy bad cigar stock (sorry Wes).
phoenix Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 My 'secret' is I just toss the ones that don't burn perfectly. In all seriousness, here are a few factors which probably contribute: 1. In my experience really young cuban cigars tend to have a 'wanky' burn more often than not, so I avoid smoking them with less than a year's age on them. 2. Wet cigars burn like shite, so I keep my humidor on the dry side @ around 65% RH. 3. I rotate the cigar while smoking which helps even out the burn. 4. If all else fails-- a little touch up here and there with the torch never hurts Cheers!
Lotusguy Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 LGC MdO #2 from the Box Pass. BD 2002. Earthier than usual but quite good.
Lotusguy Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Another outstanding ERDM Corona Deluxe from 1998. Really stellar smoke. Glad I got 4 more sticks incoming.
