Thx I'd probably pick the Fuerte over the del Campo but Placencia is excellent in general in my experience. I just wish they offered more reasonable size vitolas. This was a 5x52 and almost all their offerings are this size or bigger. Much bigger. The only one I haven't been a fan of is the del Fuego. Too much pepper for me.

Popular Post RDB Posted February 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2023 Inspired by @X-Man’s epic haul, it was an E2 today. Alas, this had a really problematic burn and continually tunnelled, requiring a lot of re-lighting. Shame, because the leaf is good, and the rest of this MSU 18 box has been excellent. This was the mid-way cigar, number 13 out of 25, so perhaps that is the unlucky reason… 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to my wife being awesome, I do have a pair of the Air Jordan 1 Mid in "Marquette." Those are really nice. Unfortunately, I have really wide feet that will never fit into 1's. I only fit into 4's. Possibly 5's too, but I like 4's better so I never bothered trying on 5's. I really want the Travis Scott 4's, but the ones with the Nike logo on the back of the right shoe instead of the jump man. But like you, those are a little more than I want to pay. Especially in size 12. One day, I may break down and get the ones with the jump man on the back, but that would mean I have totally given up hope. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ford2112 Posted February 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2023 Having this fairly young Corona. It's far and away my favorite QDO. The 50 and 54 are too light and I hate the 54 size. This vitola is much richer and I'd give this one 94 points. I'm getting sweet spice and coffee creme. Every one from this box has been a banger! 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RDB Posted February 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2023 Nudie 2021 N1 Colorado Rosado. My first of the bundle. Coldish ‘pre-spring’ day here in London, but lovely clear skies and sunshine. Always makes a smoke more enjoyable. First off, a perfect draw. Now, how come Habanos can’t get this right on USD70 a stick Lanceros? Hmm? And the whole burn was perfect. Great long ash, no worrying about the damn cigar, just enjoyment. Cold draw was quite light, a little barnyard and hay, some oatiness. Colour was not what I would call rosado, but I’m not eating the colour so I don’t much care. Flavour was a lovely, mild (to start with) Upmann-esque nutty milky herbal twang. Touch of vegetal, grainy sweetness. You know, Cuban cigar flavour, in the lighter register. Then I just enjoyed it. Marvelled at the long curly ash. Smoked it faster or slower as I pleased. Did some reading and work. Enjoyed the gentle ramp in flavour and a little bit of spicy punch coming into the last third. The alas I ran out of time. A very, very promising start for this bundle, and a giant middle-finger salute to Habanos. 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
