Quoted from EJS:

How is it? I think I have one of those

I really enjoy them. I'm not big on "notes" so I can't really say much more than it's a fine smoke!

Quoted from ryanbrooks:

Ahh, the mighty mighty Hermosa. If you’ve never had one, it’s worth every penny. They’re just not for the casual smoker.

BINGO!!

For future planning, maybe we set a time and lounge where cigar smokers can meet at Pinfest or White Rose?

I’ve got some of those in one of my humidors, never burned one. Y’all sure talk ‘em up, so maybe I should soon.

#3360 1 year ago

I bought some of these. Punch 180. I really don’t know why. I don’t think I could get through all that without falling asleep or slipping into a nicotine coma. Anyone tried one yet?

Yard work is done, time to relax before the work week.
‘17 Esplendido and an Alberta Rye Manhattan.
Wrapper is perfection… buttery soft with a bit of oil, and just a touch more red hue than a Connecticut.

I was just there today. A lot has changed in the last 5 years but some hasn’t.

#3370 1 year ago

Yesterday and today. Every Southern Draw I’ve had has been a very good smoke. The Vegas Robaina I’m having right now is starting off quite spicy.

Nothing exciting to see here. Just a nice treat after a busy Tuesday at work

A friend dropped this off for me today. A drinking glass with a slot for a cigar! Also, four granite "ice cubes" which you freeze, and put in your drink so as to chill it, but not dilute it.

Another Jake Wyatt. So far pretty mild liking the previous stick a little better.

Edit…can’t say I’ll be trying this one again.

I had this for the first time last night. Really nice smoke. I got it in a Robusto sampler. It’s a Vegas Robaina, maybe a Familiares? I’m not sure, the ones I’ve found online look box pressed.

There are only two current regular production Vegas Robaina, the Famosos (48x5”, so pretty close to a robusto) I’d say you had and the Unicos torpedo.

#3379 1 year ago

Last night. First pick from the full box. A little ripe compared to the others I’ve had so I’ll probably let them sit until fall. Still enjoyed!

Also happy to be smoking without the need for that heater! It might make an appearance this week though.

Quite possibly the most enjoyable $7 cigar I’ve had in a long long time. Really nice when you’re at an RV campground and it’s already 100°

Has anyone here tried a Muwat?
Another Drew Estates offering.
I'm enjoying one now, and pulled up a YouTube review of it.
I had the same issue with the wrapper unraveling, but I'm doing my best to "spit seal" it.
Aside from that, it's a really good smoke. The reviewer had a tight draw issue as well, but mine was OK in that regard. I'm really liking this stick.

Thanks for the heads up I’ll have to check it out I am hearing a number of things coming out from Drew Estate right now.

These are always on CigarBid and normally sell for just a few bucks/stick: https://www.cigarbid.com/shop/?f_LineName.raw=My+Uzi+Weighs+a+Ton

I tried the “fire cured” version once… Not something I’d try again, but the normal MUWAT was good.

#3386 1 year ago

This one sat in my truck for a few days just in its own wrapper. Might be slightly dry but still doing well. pinballplusMN with his favorite LFD

I was a big fan of the CAO Red Label Maduros, and I think they were discontinued. Does anyone have any similar recommendations?

Still available, just a packaging change: https://www.cigarsinternational.com/p/cao-lanniversaire-maduro-cigars/1410671/

For a alternative suggestion, the Nica Rustica from Drew Estate might fit the bill.

The Jake Wyatt experience continues….

This one is kind of neat. Far better flavors than the last JW.

Dang….am I tasting some maple notes?

I looked at those again today at a local shop and decided to try some Henry Clay offerings instead.

Tonight however, a Perdomo Habano Maduro. Spicy. Really spicy when it’s first light. I’m not sure if it’s mellowed, or if it just numbed my taste buds, but it doesn’t have much flavor other than spicy tobacco right now. I’m only 1/4 of the way through it though.

I saw some of those today while shopping. Problem is that shop puts them right next to the Fuente Opus offerings, and I see shinny things and forget everything else!

JSK F*** The FDA. Came highly recommended from one of my customers. All I can say is wow! This smoke has a lot going on. Full flavor. Big, thick draw. Lotta flavor going on in this.

Was going to try an Oliva O for the first time tonight but decided I was too tired for that lengthy stick. Time for a Caldwell. Still have 8 or so left.
