bassman Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 ENE 09 VR Unico- mild but lovely cocoa flavor, and a Tatuaje Noella. Nice strong smoke- the only non Cuban brand I still buy.
Habanakane21 Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 In Palms Springs,CA right now..108 degrees. The heat won't stop me!! had a Partagas 898 varnished and a Magnum 50 for lunch!
samb Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Outstanding Upmann regalias last night and a PL montecarlo tonight!!
mbrody Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 About a year ago, I asked EL Prez for a recommendation. He came back with some "Cracker" LA GLORIA CUBANA MEDAILLE D'OR NO.2 Tonight, I sparked up my second one from the 07 box. An oily, beautiful specimen, that smells of deep barnyard, she is filled with unique flavors that I am unacustomed to. Extremely tasty, medium + body, and as Rob said, a cracker. What a great change of pace when compared to my normal diet of Habanos. I will do my best to limit my consumption of this box, as it seems that age will only to continue to improve this smoke.
CanuckSARTech Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Yesterday, a Romeo y Julieta "Short Churchills" tubo, September 2008 "EPR" box code. Ehhhhh. I had done some house cleaning earlier in the day, and as usual, I forgot about it when I decided to light up this stick - the chemical tones on my palate and nasal cavity from using the cleaners heavily affected my taste and perception of this cigar. Pre-light was still spot on and very discernable though - some cream, toast, and fruity & floral tones (cherries & roses?). But my taste buds were compromised temporarily from the chemicals. Couldn't really rate it.
mbrody Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 I'm a Boli PC *****. Had two today. I had one...I'm just a Boli PC ****
samb Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Padron Anni 1964 something or other (a wedding gift). Great smoke, definitely one of the best NC on the market.
PointSource Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Cohiba Gran Reserva Siglo VI.....not too shabby.
bassman Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 01 RASS and 02 SLR Regio. Both very mellow & tasty.
Mr.T Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Enjoyed a wonderful Upmann Magnum 46 (09)...while keeping a watchul eye on a city racoon..big sucker. Aroma at cold was the typical barnyard aroma. Great construction, draw and burn (there hasn't been a flaw in the whole box). Notes of of leather, wood and dark chocolate abound...the 09s are really, really good. They've got years ahead of them, but I can't keep my hands off them.
redlir Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Having the last of the hand finished Partagas Milles Fluers I'm purging from the humidor as I move up to the higher tier cigars.... these were very very hit and miss, but this last one is THICK with flavor.. I'd swear it was a monte 4 in my hands with a splash of spice.
CanuckSARTech Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Had a Trinidad Ingenios EL 2007 today, Dic 2007 "SOA" box. Will do a full review in the Cigar Review Forum section later on. But, very nice indeed...
Bartolomeo Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 06 Choix.......yes Sir! Monte EL 2010........Needs to rest IMHO
Wicky Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 JL 2. I'm really loving this cigar. Medium full,easy draw,black pepper and toasty tobacco. More please!
