Can't beat Partagas Lusitanias for sure! I really like that DC, so want to get 50 cab Lusis ?

Is QdO Senadores great EL Frank? It has some good reviews on FOH though.

Hey Kim.  Here are my thoughts on it.

My first impressions are this. It hast the QdO DNA. And to me that means it's a mild/medium bodied cigar that has an interesting blend that transitions from foot to head. Construction wise it was perfect. Excellent draw and burn. As for the flavour profile, it reminded me of the QdO Coronas but not as complex. Of the new QdO's the No 50 was solid. Haven't had a bad one yet. The No 54 took me a few samples to really enjoy it and I think over time the blend really settled in. This one didn't really "wow" me even though it was a good smoke. I'd need to try a couple more just in case I was smoking a dud. I'm hoping it benefits from some aging. Maybe another 6-8 months? We'll see.

Thanks Frank! I think brands like QdO taste better when they're aged rather than ROTT IMHO. I have one QdO 54 in my tupperdor and your comment about 54 make me even more exciting to review that Robusto! ?

At least that EL didn't being mere asbestos cigar, so try them after several years of ageing IMHO. I really wonder to see how does this cigar evolves time by time ?.

Romeo y Julieta Churchills GOM Ago 2018

I have been 'waxing lyrical', so-to-speak, about this cigar for a few years now due to their consistency in construction and flavour delivery across a number of box codes. I guess the hallmark of a 'hot' cigar is when it's not at its usual best it's still pretty good. Such was the case with this GOS Ago 2018 Romeo y Julieta Churchill cigar today.

The construction was excellent. Ash-length, burn and ash rings were all impeccable. The flavour was a little heavier on the cocoa side of things which made the cigar seem not as balanced as many other RyJ Churchills I've enjoyed this year. Mind you, I still got cherry fruit and sweet turkish delight flavours to complement the cocoa.

If I reach for another RyJ Churchill from this box and it ends up like this one I honestly wouldn't be disappointed, nor would I have any hesitation in reaching for another one soon.

Punch ManTua Edición Regional Italia
ASR MAY 19
So I've had these a while and just hadn't gotten round to sampling them like some of you others have.
The Laguito no.2 is my favourite format hands down, there's class and sophistication to this vitola, coupled with the blending here is providing a fantastic smoke tonight, so much flavour!
Definitely some oomph to the blend (to my palate) and should age well.
These days I ignore most other reviews preferring to make an unbiased judgement based upon my own storage preference then smoking experience - from what I've seen in with the majority here, excellent cigar
Damn the Italians do it right consistently, not just the regional editions cigars but I'm also giving a nod to Neopolitan and Florentine suit styles which is another long time interest of mine.
Massive shout to our BOTL@mbflash80 who was willing to share with me again

One of Hamlet’s custom shaggy footed robusto extras from back when he was still rolling Cuban leaves. From 2011/12. Was lucky enough to grab a few of these off of the legendary BOTL @maverickdrinker about eight years ago. One left now.

 

Draw is perfect. Construction is perfect. Just classy Cuban tobacco. More on the medium side. No nicotine kick despite the size. Flavors of leather, earth, cream and just a pinch of Christmas spice.

C&C time. Managed to get this in before the rain came thankfully. Especiales from 14

[CampDelta369]

A fantastic Dip#2 with leather and cream all the way.

Morning C&C MC#5. Compliments to our gracious host. I was short on these so I chose the easy path and went ROTT. I don't know if the picture captures the sheen on this wrapper. What a smoke.
