So I grabbed a RASS from the Humi and also a backup considering my issues I’ve had with this box. And after this one, it’s definitely forget about it until late next year. Just a terrible bitterness on the finish killing any subtle flavor it has to offer. Pitched it on first third. The Connie 1 on the other hand was offering enjoyment and definitely did it’s best to save the moment. The RASS still holds title as my Nemesis of the year. A day off tomorrow so maybe I can go big and find CC happiness.

I'm hoping I'm not ending up in the same place. Have a box of MSU NOV 2018 and have sampled two, most recently last month. They've been a little rough. Really hoping they just need to stew for a while longer or I started with some duds, 'cause with 23 left I don't want to hate them ?

I'm into a box of EOS DIC 18 on Clearance 24:24. The first two sticks of RASS i sampled were out of the stores in April this year? They showed some promise and were definitely tasty. I don't know why this box is so Nasty to date, but with that being said i have many other CC that are smoking real well and i have patience. The MSU box code you have has been very good as El Pres has noted on other marcas. I'll definitely post again when these turn the corner. Construction wise they look very good, draw is excellent, burn has been good. Time Will Tell. And now some relaxing music...

CoRo (TOU MAY 19) from the HQ $399s.  I always drybox a single from a fresh box for a week and TLDR this may have been the best CoRo I've ever had.  Creamy texture is "silky".  Honey, sweet cedar, lemon pepper/grass through the nose, floral notes and nectarine come in and out occasionally.  Almost every draw I can feel the salivary glands in my mouth and cheeks excite.  95+ for me.  Now I'm left wondering if I got the best one in the box lol.

Great festive weekend

Had the '18 Churchill (thanks @TTP21 ), my buddy an Alex custom the other night. 

Tonight was an '18 RASS

Both just fantastic .

Had this farm roll (Robusto) this sunny but cool afternoon,  from a very nice FOH buddy.  Happy Thanksgiving week!

This is not a mongrel, it’s a pitbull. Regalia from MEG MAR 17 and nowhere near ready. Strong roast espresso and bitter chocolate, little oily beads forming on the ash. That Szechuan pepper numbness in the mouth. Jeez. Nick O’Teen has got me in his clutches. Kind of great actually, if you want your ass kicked.

ESL Mar 19  I’ve seen so much rave about this code for the cigar, what this cigar excelled at was frustration. Extremely tight draw, even after a two week dry box. Would not stay lit. Creamy fruit when I did get notes of flavor

Morning C&C @Raskol. MC#4 PSP REG MAY 18. These have been excellent and to my pallet the cocoa, coffee, cream, with a bit of twang on the edges goes perfectly with the black espresso roast.

 

@El Hoze man night here. Bone in Prime rib at Houston’s and some 2004 Ducru Saint Julien. This Montecristo No.2 is crackers. ULA OCT 14.

Montecristo No.4 UEB May 2018

I have just gone through half this box and all of them bar one have been outstanding to stellar. The cold draw was so exceptional that it delayed my lighting the cigar! This Montecristo No.4 again continued the trend of a citrus twang spine enveloped by nut, milk coffee, cocoa and a hint of cream.

I have no plans to extend the life of this box by saving the remaining cigars, they are simply smoking great now. In case you are wondering, yes... I have another UEB 2018 box on the way.

UBM MAR 18. Great stick, sweet, nutty and chocolate flavours.  I smoked it down til the nub.

You mean, you're smoking fresh Mille Fleurs meanwhile you put the Short asleep for aging?

I can tell the season is changing. I no longer want pilsners, IPAs, Cohibas, RyJs and crave the dark flavor of stouts Bolivar and Montes. Weird how that works.

Great cigar!

2008 Sig VI. Doing man night tonight. Huge double cut prime bone-in ribeye, twice baked potato, old bottle of Bordeaux opening up, the applewood bacon is flowing like water....

For me a Siglo VI is a great man night cigar. This box is almost gone unfortunately, fantastic box.
