gersonmorelli Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Had a young San Cristobal La Punta while watching World Cup game Uruguay and South Africa. Cigar's construction was below average with some soft spots and a little too tight on the draw for the first third. Nonetheless, the first third was quite enjoyable with nutty, earthy and even dusty (in a good sense) characters. The second third was not too good, earthy characters but with a touch of plastic taste. Last third was all right mainly earthy and cedary. Not the best cigar I've had in the past few weeks. 85 - 86 I was hoping to get the sweet cherry / blackberry taste that I've had in some San Cristobal but can't say that I was successful. Today I'll smoke a recent production Partagas P2 watching France vs Mexico. It has been quite some time since I last smoked one of these. I loved them when they first came out. It felt like I was smoking a peanut butter cigar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk404 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Over the weekend: Partagas Short - Draw was tight but full flavoured Mag 50 - Perfect every time Connie 1 - On the mild side but nice and smooth El Principe - Full flavoured like the Party Short but more nutty. I need to get more of the Mag 50... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambridge1 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Really enjoyed a Monte Especial ('07) yesterday. Monte's aren't usually my thing, but these are truly glorious. My wife had a San Cristobal El Principe (Nov ’08) and she loved it. I took a few puffs in the first 3rd and I was getting amazing caramel and molasses favors.

JasonInChiTown Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 some CAO double ligero LX2 rubbish...so far I have enjoyed the Brazilia and Italia from that line and rest has been poor. then had a couple of dip 4's with two mates over some wine, much better! I've tried every CAO product, and the Brazilia Box-Pressed are by far the best smoke in the entire portfolio. Great with morning coffee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thechenman Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Tonight a Romeo y Julieta Romeo No. 1 (Tubo) and a Partagas de Luxe (Tubo). Not impressed with the RyJ. Undefilled and bitter. The latter had an inkling of Partagas flavor, even burn, but the draw became really tough in the final third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLR Regios (HQ 08)-really delicious, reminded me of gingerbread. I have a box of HQ 08 Regios- best Regios I've ever smoked. Today a 98 Punch SS#2. People rave about these, but just a good not great cigar to me. Never a big Punch fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thechenman Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Last Night an H. Upmann Petit Corona Tubo and a Bolivar No. 3 Tubo. The H. Upmann had a very tight draw. Got tired smoking it after the 2/3 and chucked it. The Bolivar was better in terms of draw and flavors, but it was still lacking on the flavor side. Only the slightest hint of the earthiness I expect from Bolis...then again these are inexpensive smokes. You get what you pay for, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmycaution Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Just finished my first RA Estupendos. Beautiful looking cigar, too bad it was way too tight. It wasn't plugged but I barely got any smoke or flavor out of it. When I did, the cigar was bitter and disgusting. I'm sure I just got a bad one...

dochowl Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Last night smoked a super-fresh Cohiba Robusto (2/2010). Good flavors, great construction, helluva nicotine kick to it. Needs a year or 2 to mature, but sure is a promising smoke. Right now working through a 2007 RASS. Never been high on my list. This one is pretty good, although I still fail to see what all the hype is about these. To each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
