An RE Friday with @Nate Chu C&C for a Saturday morning with this Sir Winston from 03. Today is going to be great if this cigar is anything to judge it by. What a super smooth star

First cigar of the year.

C&C ‘14 especiales. Fantastic start to the day C&C with a Monte 4 C&C time today with a Perla picked up from 24:24

Thanks for the tip! I'll look for it. What is its flavor profile? I found the Remy Martin to be fruity and dry. With a lil oaky spice and a touch of sweetness.

Man, it's a mouthful! The Marie Duffau tends to be fruity and spicy and not too dry - quite simple with only a handful of discernible notes. The DeLord's, on the other hand, is like tap-dancing praline, nuts, and, truthfully, a complexity that I still cannot entirely fathom.

I used to prefer Remy VSOP until I tried Armagnac 2 years ago. I haven't bought a bottle of Cognac since! Even the Hors d'Age Armagnac is quite affordable, typically in the $50-70 range (compared with Cognac of a similar age where the price goes from $100 into the stratosphere)

I knew I wouldn't like them the minute I received this box... maduro wrappers = no HDM taste. Some people swear by the LE taste - I do not. Off they go...

@RoRo. Thx for the heads up. The DeLords sounds right up my alley. Now all I have to do is find it. :).

I'm long overdue for a revisit of the Allones Extra, and given a new RA EL is on the near horizon, now is as good a time as any

How was it? I've only sampled one from my box, and they immediately when down for a deep sleep.

Have they gotten any better?

Well, I am bias as I've always liked them, but initially only saw the potential. They have IMO improved immensely and the RA profile seems to finally be really breaking through the choco-leather EL wrapper leaf. It was still a little shifty at times and I think time will balance them out yet even better.

On a side note, this one was much stronger (nic) then any I remember in the past, yet it was a smoother overall smoke.

I would love to experiment with one of these and re wrap one in a different wrapper

Celebrating the eve of the Chinese New Year with a Cohiba Robusto and a tot of whisky.

A little low-key in comparison to what I would be doing in the old home country but I guess this will suit alright.

Happy Chinese New Year to all that observe this day of celebration.
