CBL Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 A RASS, with a coffee and the Taipei 101 in front of me blocking out the sun. The RASS was a boring as sh*t smoke, thank god the coffee helped me stay awake during the smoke.
bassman Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 One of those recent skinny German Bolivar REs this morning. Wonderful cigar. Started mild yet tasty. By the 1/3 mark, strength greatly increased & the trademark Boli earthiness took over.
JasonInChiTown Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 RASS with some Laphroaig Quarter Cask - amazing pairing. 42 degrees in Chicago [shaking my damn head]
coneatty Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 Partagas Shorty with a tall glass of Crown Royal and a splash of soda. Now this is a great cigar...kind of like the spice of a PCE with the midrange on the palate of a monte 4. Out on the deck, the sun has set, the crickets are chirping, but fall is in the air.
Ellery Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 Just had a Partagas SD4. Picked it up in robusto split. Was never a big fan of this cigar, but the one I smoked was excellent, can't wait to try the rest of them.
redlir Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 6 month old RASCC with some 7 year old havana club in coffee. They were a bit wet when I first got them, but after a few weeks to adjust to 65%, they're smoking great. Absolutely perfect with rum/coffee
mazolaman Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 Bolivar petit corona.....with a cuppa tea.......smashing.
mbrody Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 Early 08 Mag 46 last night. So consistently good...The more I smoke, the more these rise to the top when compared to many other offerings.
CanuckSARTech Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 Finally had my first cigar in over a month on Friday. Had a Montecristo No. 4 (Nov. 2007 "BLP" box). Light claro wrapper, with some prominent green spots; draw was firmer, but still decent; burn and ash were both spot-on excellent. Some toasted spices, black coffee, leather, a bit of cloves and wood. It was a decent return back to the leaf after an extended miss, but with about an 86 score, it didn't rock my boat and I was hoping for more. Maybe I'll smoke a CoRo later on this week, to help get back into the stride of things again....
Erm310mce Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 Had another fabulous 09 Monte #2 today, can't get enough of these lately. HQ Box from czar...check out the burn... Spot on
brutusthebuckeye Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Saturday morning 730am with coffee a VR Famosos..... Late Sat/Early Sunday RyJ Cazzy.....
bassman Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 99 Partagas TPC- consistanly nice cigars, but I'm running low. 07 Diplo #5. As bad as the last one was, was how good this one was. Good old Cuban consistancy.
KWG116 Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Had to bump this. I love reading the daily smokes. And forgot about it the last two days. Smoking 03/10 BBF. Very muted. Over humidified with little flashes of flavor. Just got them in two days ago. Should have waited. But such a beautiful night couldn't resist. Two nights ago a monte 5 and cuaba divino. Both need to be put away for awhile. Last night 07 punch petit punch. Fantastic. Burned my fingers. Have half box left to smoke and one put away. These are amazing. Thank you Kwg116.
Wicky Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Tonight. Triple Zacapa over, with a fat wedge of lime and a Sir Winston. How far is Heaven?
samb Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 H. Upmann Regalias with coffee, pre-dinner yesterday.
Stalebread Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Haven't smoked anything for over a week so I wanted to make sure I smoked something really good. Went with an Upmann Sir Winston, '03. It delivered.
KWG116 Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Bolivar corona jr teb oct 08 Fantastic. I remember Rob talking about these awhile ago and always wanted a box. Finally broke down and bought one. Just arrived last night and swore wasn't touching this shipment for a month.That lasted about 26 hours. Decided to smoke one. Wow. These are going to give my cab of teb bpc's a run. Ordering another box tomorrow. Thank you Kwg116
CanuckSARTech Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 H. Upmann Magnum 46 tubos, May 2008 "OBE" box code - fairly nice, paired with a Lipton yellow label tea. Pre-light of honey and cloves, burn was great, a bit tanic, some florals with slight molasses/brown sugar, tangy, a bit harsh (very windy afternoon). Not bad though - an 87.
investandprosper Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 RASCC: Bad. Kept going out, muted flavors. Probably a bit wet. Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos: Bad. 1/2 of the head was plugged, so I clipped it. Flavors were ok, but unravelled (as expected) and started tasting ... well, like nothing much. San Cristobal El Principe: Perfect draw, fantastic flavors, 1/3 in and loving it. Glad the night ended on a good note
Mr.T Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Enjoyed a lovely U.Upmann Monarch (07 Czar box). I think three years is too soon to light this baby up. Draw and burn were excellent. Very much typical upmann falvors throughout. Very enjoyable and look forward to smoking these for years to come. Shame they discotinued this excellence Churchill.
bassman Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Don't know the name or year, but a wonderful RA Belgian RE. Looked like a long robusto. Excellent medium bodied flavor.
