Tasting notes? 9 hours ago, jakebarnes said: I really like them, although I am not sure they completely differentiate themselves from the Punta. Typical SCdlH richness--sorty of buttery molasses. Found the Prado to be a touch stronger/bolder with a little pepper. Could not have said it better myself. 2

Popular Post Frinkiac7 Posted May 14, 2022 Popular Post Posted May 14, 2022 Working my way through a random box of old singles. This is a Ramon Allones "Especial de Allones," RE Francia 2008. Campanas vitola. Picked it up somewhere in France in 2011, never got around to smoking it. Took off the bands to bring it back into the states. Draw is firm, burn a little uneven. Initial flavors are very similar to a RASS. Nice but nothing stupendous. If I were blindfolded it would be like smoking a RASS with tight draw. About halfway through the draw is still a struggle, and it gets a bit harsh and bitter and the burn starts to get wonky, so I chucked it. I'd rather have a good RASS. A pretty typical example of the REs of this era in my opinion...nothing to write home about. 20

Reminds me a bit of the Talisman but the long finish on it has some umami to it. There’s almost like a smokey bbq sauce to the finish. Least that’s what i got from it. The one picture was my fourth one. I like them! Cheers! Doing very well thank you my good man. Sure does sound like some flavour profiles that I would enjoy. Hopefully shall get my grubby mitts on one at some stage. Hope all well at your end too buddy. 1

Popular Post WABOOM Posted May 14, 2022 Popular Post Posted May 14, 2022 Master Blends 3, Churchill from 2018. These are very high quality tobacco and construction. An impressive balance of sweetness, strength and bold refinement. These flew under the radar for a while. I'm a big fan. They have responded well to a good rest at 65% rh. 22
Popular Post Sir Diggamus Posted May 14, 2022 Popular Post Posted May 14, 2022 Tatuaje Negociant Monopole no 4 with a cup of Papua New Guinea dark roast. Perfect little coffee smoke. The others in this line are a more mild cigar. The no 4 is more a medium and punchy while retaining the creamy and bready notes associated with a CT wrapper. Great cigar!

I just smoked one yesterday and got a ton of floral notes for the first time ever with that cigar. You ever get floral in them?

Lovely lazy Saturday with my typical Punch 898 and a fresh re-supply of home roasted Honduran coffee from my co-worker’s grandma. I had one over the weekend, my first and only - a FoH prize - and was disappointed in the first two thirds but it turned into something wonderful in the last 25 mins. Generally love Punch and am smoking a Short de Punch as I type, very good cigar. Sent by spooky action at a distance 2

Popular Post Nevrknow Posted May 14, 2022 Popular Post Posted May 14, 2022 Saturday bbq beer can chicken. Not quite worth firing up my big smoker but the Siglo Medio is! 2020 single no code but don’t care. Takes me back to my very first one. That first one led me to here. 😁 Monte 2. Again no code because a few from somewhere. Absolutely amazing. ROTT this thing sucked. Some rest and damn. I’m impressed. And my smoking buddies. The true tough guy and the “ I’m sure I’m a giant dog”. Or at least he acts like it. 😂 31
