theholmesmob Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Currently enjoying a Dip 4 whilst sitting outside watching the rugby league and sipping on a cold beer..... glorious !!! Cigar is spot on, lots of flavor and smoke much better than the R&J I had yesterday. Will have to ration the remainder!
aavkk Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 I was lucky enough to smoke the new custom rolled shaggy foot dalia on the deck at czars. so many laughs I don't recall much about the smoke other than it came through very young with the final third quite harsh. It did have a lot lurking under the hood and will be interesting to follow its development. Followed it up with an 08 Party Short which was delicious.
maverickdrinker Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 last night, cohiba robusto with some Krug
KWG116 Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 SLR Regio April 10 After a somewhat disapointing cigar day yesterday I needed something good this morning. Was going through my humidor earlier in the week and saw these. Checked them out and thought I need smoke another. Problem was I put them at the bottom of my stacked boxes. After fighting to get them out grabbed a random one and went out on the deck. Clipped it perfect draw. Was worried they might be sick as they were great ROTT in january. Glad I was wrong. I have spent 90 minutes enjoying this cigar to the nub. The whole time I was going through past reviews on FOH and came across a quote from Leaflover, he said the cigar he was reviewing was so good it reminded him of why he smokes cigars. This Regio did the same for me this morning. Thank you Kwg116
headstand Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Wow! First taste of the HdME#2 - wonderful floral exotic flavours in a medium body smoke. Draw was a bit tight: ok if all your attention was on the cigar, but too tight to concentrate on anything else. Is that common for the #2 ?
maverickdrinker Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Fuente Opus X Power Ranger from May 2010 with some Montaudon Grand Cru Rose Brut Champagne. Delicious!!!
Sutton Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Had a Siglo V yesterday & had to throw it out 1/2 way , I was choking on a pine/cedar tree. I have never has a Cohiba that tasted so bad before. I had picked up the tubo sampler & have smoked them in order, at leat a VI next.
thechenman Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 This weekend, I smoked a couple of Partagas Shorts for 2010. Outstanding little cigars. Couldn't have been better. I'm quickly coming to the end of the 50ct cab. Will need to restock for next winter.
JoshMP Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Smoked a Bolivar Gold Medal yesterday, one of my favourite cigars and this one did not dissappoint. Great draw. I love the size as well. Looking forward to smoking the new Encantos in the next couple of days!
JoshMP Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Tonight a very underwhelming Monte 3, plugged tight - I only got about a cm through before I had to ditch it.
dB69 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Yesterday I had a Party Short which was released from freezer eight days earlier. Very good, but a little dry perhaps. I guess they will be fine next weekend. Today I had a Party Chico which was already what it should be. Smaller cigars recover faster - quite logical.
mazolaman Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Juan Lopez no1......from 2009.......which are now smoking beautifully. Heathery,honey smooth and medium in strength.
bc8436 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Gran Habano 3 Siglos Gran Robusto. Medium-body with notes of leather and pepper throughout. Not the most complex cigar and the burn was very inconsistent. Still, paid less than $2 per stick so it's a nice smoke for the price.
CoryOllis Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 '10 Boli PC - constantly amazed at how good these are young. Cocoa and spice and everything nice!
dicko Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 boli cj and h upmann mag 48. both decent but not great
CohibaBehike Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 BHK 56 on Saturday, Siglo VI on Tuesday, and Liga Privada T52 right now.
dB69 Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Just had one of the worst cigars I have ever smoked. Monte #3 from a cardboard pack with a band which was discontinued in 2006. Flavours were burnt motor-oil and rotten eggs. It happens sometimes but luckily not too often. I am happy that I don't have that particular cigar anymore and I hope tomorrow will be a better day.
bob25 Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 BCG 08 A great cigar with great construction,smoked it to the nub.
bc8436 Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Oliva Serie V Maduro Especial. I picked up some at the local B&M after the glowing reviews from the owner. The cigar just fell apart midway through, literally. The wrappers exploded and broke into dozens of pieces. The cigar itself was rather lackluster as well, tasted like burnt rubber. Probably just a dud. Urgh.
