Popular Post JohnS Posted April 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2019 San Cristóbal de la Habana La Fuerza LGR Jun 2018 The last San Cristobal de La Habana La Fuerza I had was from the 2018 FoH Xmas Sampler and it proved to be a real 'fizzer' because it was smoked on a wet and humid summer's night and subsequently it was a tad bitter and harsh in places. Thankfully, this was a lot better! The La Fuerza is noted as been similar to the El Principe in blend, only more muted. I would agree with this sentiment. I find the El Principe is more rich and intense, a 'no-brainer go-to' cigar, for me. This La Fuerza was still molasses sweet, had light coffee tones, minimal cocoa and an 'airy cake' or pancake texture to it throughout which I really loved. If they are consistently like this then I'd have no hesitation in having another, and soon! 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted April 26, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2019 Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo des Dieux The most famous quote from the Sermon on the Mount surely must be, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" (Matt 7:12). However, one thing my father drummed into me as a kid was the saying, "When you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." (Matt 6:3-4) He would expound further that acts of generosity need to be done for altruistic purposes to be true acts of generosity and as I get older I can understand this more. The reason I mention this is because I am the beneficiary of this cigar from a generous benefactor who would prefer anonymity. I guess the act of kindness was sufficient for him, but I remain humbled, after all, it's a des Dieux. I'm not familiar with the age of the cigar, but my instincts tell me that it would be of the most recent vintage, somewhere circa 2013/14 judging by the band, wrapper quality and shade, aroma etc and comparing it to my own. How did it compare to my last des Dieux? In a word, it didn't, it was like another cigar entirely! You see, my last des Dieux was a 2014 cream and light cedar stick, with hints of vanilla...exactly as I like them, this on the other hand was cloves, spice and wood all the way with very little creaminess evident. You may say that there was the hint of mushroom or forest floor flavours. Mind you, I still enjoyed the cigar, but when they are like this, be mindful, they have much life in them yet! 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fresh beer looks and sounds amazing ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I totally appreciate the feedback. Last one had a tough draw when I cut shorter. I need to break down and spend the 40 bucks on a PerfecDraw! Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
