MattW Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Enjoyed a Magnum 48 on Sunday with a Savanna Dry. Lovely little cigar, first time I've had one, picked it up in Berlin in January and only just got around to enjoying it!
seamus Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Partagas 898. My favorite vitola, I wish there were more.
CigarAsh Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 An absolutely wonderful Monte #1. Wonderful draw and flavor to it. There's just something so refined about smoking a long skinny. Oh, and that's Peach. Waiting patiently for the blue ball to be thrown for her. She'll do this non stop while I smoke a cigar.
TheFullMontecristo Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 New member here and first post as well. Just finished a Ramon Allones small CC, from a box of 25 that have been smoking extremely well, partnered with a cold bottle of Mackeson Triple Stout (Trinidad & Tobago).

LordAnubis Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 RyJ Exhibicion No. 4 PSP box bought recently from here. Really nice, toasty bread and tobacco. A bit of spicy cherry or other grape like fruit after the half way mark. Really needed to puff slowly on it otherwise it got bitter very quickly. Wasnt nub worthy though, let it go about 10 mins after this photo. Had with a coke but the pairing wasn't that good, not unpleasant but not the best either. Then HUpmann Royal Robusto. Again very nice. Creamy and biscuit flavours coming through. Towards the end some sort of spice, maybe clove or something. Quite mild as well. Paired great with a Kenyan coffee.
SigloVI Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Last night an outstanding '07 Montecristo Edmundo Tubo
CaptainQuintero Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Cracked open a 2011 box of pl panetelas, toasted tobacco with honey and cashew, wish these came in a tube ala Quintero tubos for the UK
dangolf18 Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 Sancho Panza (pc?). Good but one dimensional.
Tino Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 A Cuaba Solomones '05 at a cigar and grappa tasting in London yesterday
Habana Mike Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 RA Super Ramon Quite good but I believe I'll leave the remainder rest for awhile...
kevinfj Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 Today was grand. Tomorrow is going to suck.....and I'm an optimist.
Bartolomeo Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 12 Choix...started slow but finished light and smooth, pleasant surprise Quai Superiores RE....love these Nov 11 Unicos...good but not great, prefer the 12 Famosos 12 SLR Regios.....tasty and enjoyable
Rye Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 After doing the yard work that I've been putting off for over a week, this icy cold beer in a cheesy plastic, liquid filled, frosty mug, is a perfect pair with a great Cohiba Secretos. I feel bad for those that have gotten so many plugged ones, as I have yet to toss one dud.
Rye Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 After burning my fingers on this great little cigar, I have come to the conclusion that I would LOVE to see it in the same RG, but 7" long! Always too quick.
SigloVI Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 My first R&J Petit Churchill...excellent! Beautiful dark oily wrapper. Wood and leather to start, then a delicious sweet vanilla taking it home. Definitely considering adding it to the rotation.
CaptainQuintero Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 A Cuaba Solomones '05 at a cigar and grappa tasting in London yesterday Grappa goes exceptionally well with cigars doesn't it! I stumbled upon the combo last Summer!
Tino Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Grappa goes exceptionally well with cigars doesn't it! I stumbled upon the combo last Summer! It does! For me the revelation was the smoked grappa, the marc/pomace is smoked with peat pre-distillation like a peated scotch and then the grappa is aged in indigenous woods: http://www.enoglam.com/scheda%20tecnica%20evofumo-eng.asp Great with a cigar
