PLMC - EML FEB14.

This is the first one out of a box I picked up last year on BR.  Very impressed with the complexity and smoke output from a stick of this size.

They sure are a great stick and offer amazing value given the complexity on offer IMHO. Enjoy

BRC POL MAY10

Graduation ceremony for my kid was great. She had a big smile ear to ear all day and is proud of herself. Drivers test for her on Monday, then we move, to college for her, and off to my 5th and maybe last boat for me.

Mojitos and a fine Edmundos from 2008. Glorious way to start an extra long weekend 

Continued on last night with @Nate Chu for his birthday celebration with a Monte D LE post the Edmundo.

This morning had @saltyfeet come over for a visit and decided on a Siglo VI from 2018 for coffee accompaniment. Long weekends are the best.

Congratulations to you and your family on your daughters graduation! May she have safe adventures upon receiving her license and flying the coop.  Best of luck with your move!

My first of these, in fact had never even heard of them before.

Part of a huge amount of various generously gifted J.C. Newman smokes.

Supposedly considered part of their bargain line, but certainly didn't really taste like it.

Very tasty toasted wood and earthy tobacco, with just a little spice on the finish.

Excellent burn,draw and construction, and only a few thin veins and nearly invisible seams.

Certainly didn't look, taste or smoke like a bargain Cigar to me.

Very enjoyable, and it was rott.



Partagas Presidentes

My first of these

Very tasty and great burn and construction.
Draw was a little tight, but not enough to bother me.

Usually not a figarado fan as I have run into more problems with really tight draws and uneven burns with them, but would gladly make an exception for these, just like with Cuabas.

'15 Oliva Serie V Melanio Torpedo

Smoked through a box of the robusos about 2 years ago and loved them.

The 6 years of age didn't seem to have changed the taste any, which is good, just seemed a little more mellow and tame than I recall, which was nice.

Great taste and burn, draw and construction and think I prefer the torpedo over the robusto size-wise.

Will definitely be buying some more next time I need to make an nc order.

From yesterday, a VR Famosos thanks to our host and 24:24




And now a Monte 4

Congrats man!!! That’s actually the champagne I’m going to drink with a very expensive cigar on my wedding day pre wedding!

After having a bland HU Regalias AGO20 and somewhat similar HU Majestic (unknown year) earlier this week I decided to retry the Magnum 46 ABR19 to see if the first mag46 I tried was a one-off tasty treat. Three puffs into this and I already know it wasnt a one time deal. There is this creamy, slightly sweet nutty taste that I really enjoyed last time. Quite a treat! Haven't found the same in the other Upmann, still got Connie 1 on the list though.

Yeah I haven't had good luck with the majestics or regalias either. The epicures and HUHC are better. Though I find they all need to be smoked rather slowly or else the flavours die.

I can agree to that. HUHC and epicure are also on the good end in my book

A gift from @Meklown , beautiful smoke, sweet and chocolatey.
What a lovely day, sometimes happiness is so easy to get, just a fine cigar and good weather.

@Cigarsmoker81

I have read some people on various forums say that the 54 and 50 have a noticeable taste difference.

What do you think, assuming you have also had the 50?

I wouldn't think there would be a noticeable difference as they are the same Blend and really not that big of a difference in size

Bolivar RC. TUA ENE 21. Outstanding - malt, char, chocolate mousse. I am really liking the Bolivar as a counterpoint to Hoyo, these days. Yin and Yang.

A couple of things to celebrate today.
 

Started with a HU Regalias from a great looking tin. Cigar was also very good and much better than the Partgas Petit Corona in the new tin. 
 

POU MAY 12 Cohiba Siglo I. Love these aged. 
 

RAE JUL 15 RA 898 RE Alemania. Good but not up to the standard this box has set. 

[Dynamo320]

HU Connie 2 REM NOV 20

First one out of the box. Only 30 days down and 7 months of age. Usually regret this but not in this case. Classic Upmann and definitely a close sibling to the A.

Love those cigar clips. But I always seem to leave them on the carts. Never fails, every time.

Many courses down here supply them if you want to smoke cigars on the course. Also, I’ve found these clips from the link below are way better. Someone gave one to me a couple years back and I’ll never go back to the ones in Elliot’s pic (sorry doc).  Only comment, these clips from below require a couple rounds to break in and widen out with a cigar in them, but I’ve used it for almost three years now and they’re great. Always keep it in my golf bag. Magnetic so it clips on the frame of the cart top.
