FOH'ers Daily Smoke

Loving the Skinnies ... don’t even remember where I got this but it was not bad at all

TUP SEP 14 (mostly) from a recent quarter box 24:24 purchase. Loved the spiced cream and earthiness that came from this cigar. Huge plumes of smoke with no relights. Construction was spot on. I tapped the ask off almost at the halfway point so I didn’t make a mess of my jeans. Very nice smoke and much better than the one I had ROTT.

Congratulations!

How'd you like the Anejados? 

Quite good, glad I grabbed a box! Creamy, bit of sweetness...maybe some nut?

In the spirit of Double-Band Season, my evening below. These LGC ER España Serie D No. 5s are fantastic right now, and pair well with Booker's.

Let’s see if it does pair well ?

First cigar in Delhi. One of those 09 Choix Supreme that flooded the market recently. Very nice cigar but box quality varies alot. The cycle rickshaws kept me company.

Sig 2 and some honey mead, brewed by me.

I have no idea why I love airplane bottles so much. But I do.

Let me know your thoughts! My 2019-02 has a lot of vanilla and spice which match well with the spice from the cigar. Also, I like the way you roll!

This batch 2016-02 is indeed spicy, but it’s more chocolatey than vanilly. LGC on the other hand is sweet and fruity, I couldn’t finish it since the wife came back home. Last no.5 was mild for the first half, then it got much darker, I guess the second half would pair with the Bookers just fine! Good assessment on your part FatherOfPugs! I noticed we have similar tastes in smokes, though I prefer Scotch to Bourbon ?

Interesting.  Just had a look at a map and that brewery isn't far off.  I wonder if they distribute to TN.  There are some good micro brew retailers around here...  Looks delicious.

They don't distrubute at all. Available only at the brewery.

Very nice, one of my favorites.  My last one had an explosion of deep rich coffee, like a HURR. I was very impressed.

How is that new batch of 56s? One of my all time favorite ELs...would like to track the new ones down if they are orbiting the same universe.

2007 EL Trinidad Ingenios paired with a little Old Foresters Prohibition Style Bourbon. Tabs care all.

Guessing you grabbed it from @MigsG  Sent those to him with some others on a trade.  It’s a tasty Lancero by Nick Syris LH Cigars   

Glad you enjoyed it.

Seems plausible. I did enjoy it, thank you. I was reading the notes on description somewhere and it was supposed to be fruity and sweet but I got More nuts and cream with a slight hit of white pepper every now and then. Burn and draw spot on and smoked for about 80 minutes. Very pleasant thanks again to both of you.

I was unaware they released a second batch of the Mag56.  This one is from the first box I bought here from Rob at their initial release. They were excellent then and they are excellent now.

I got a little honey out of it but definitely the pepper and nuts.  I’d like to give the Maduro Lancero a shot.   I wasn’t trying to get credit for the stick...just letting you know it’s origin!

Lol. The Maduro sounds good as well. Smoke output was immense and smooth.

Ahh...the EL band not being on there fooled me. They are releasing these in a jar for the travel retail selection so I figured you must have grabbed a jar.

Morning C&C Time @RaskolPLMC LGR OCT 18 24:24. First one with extra firm draw and won’t be the last on this RG, but the smoke produced is more than adequate. These have been delicious skinnies. Cheers

La Gloria Cubana Taínos LRE Dic 2009

It was my very great pleasure to share this much-missed Churchill-sized vitola with some dear friends, Trevor Leask and Alexander Groom, who together represent the reason we have Cuban Cigar Website as we have it today. What a delightful time it was to reminisce over current Habanos cigar culture and the changes to Cuban Cigar Website over the years.

This cigar, at ten years of age, smoked wonderfully well. The ash-length was consistent, as were the rings (or ridges in the ash). There was a slight coning off every ash, which for me, is a sign of proper rolling. In terms of flavour, La Gloria Cubana can be complex when young. When older I've found that these LGC Tainos aged varieties meld into a distinctive fruitcake flavour. Previously, I've found some nut, floral notes and cream in these too, but today's cigar from the box had only a hint of cream and was more abundant in leather.

In any case, all three of us enjoyed our Churchill-sized cigars immensely. After all, where else can you lay claim to quality fruitcake in a cigar this size?

2015 QDO corona. I had smoked one of the new blend and unite enjoyed it, so wanted to see what the old one was all about. Honestly a bit disappointed, first third was pretty flavorless. Second two were good but nothing very exciting, and a soft spot contributed to a wonky burn. Based on this example alone I honestly wouldn’t purchase more of these, but I have a few more, so who knows.
