  4. Interesting smoking experience. The Les Airelles Hotel in Courchevel. I went there with my son for a cigar tonight. I thought our hotel was nice, but this place was a palace. We were looking all over for the smoking lounge until someone finally told us it was in a cabin across the courtyard. They had an insane arrangement of cognacs to choose from, but there was no bartender. You just help yourself and they charge you afterwards. Glad I brought my own Siglo VI because the menu had them priced at 370 Euros.

  7. 2008 Sig VI from a tube. Fantastic. I leave home tomorrow and have over 100 days of snowboarding planned between now and the end of April. My cigar strategy is about 3-4 bundles of Sovereign Suns…so trying to get some nice variety in before I leave.

  12. It's probably the rare, special release Trinidad 50 Aniversario which was made available to market during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic. It's easy to forget its name as it's not as well known as other Trinidad releases of late.

  14. Last night. Thinking about last night. Oh yes, a Ramon Allones Estupendos. Salted caramel and a little cream and honey. Just sensational, in fact I kept looking at it thinking if someone has done something to this. A beautiful specimen as well. I would actually like to give it a 100 points. Perhaps a little to over refreshed with negronis at the time. 98 points TEB OCT 07.

  19. 1. That Trinidad figurado I tried. I’m drawing a blank on the name, but it was outstanding. 2. My Calatrava. It’s been a few months and I still can’t stop looking at it throughout the day.

  28. 08 Punch Serie D’Oro No.1 Reina Unida ER 6 1/8 X 52 - my first and only one - not holding on to anything anymore. No stick is safe! Cinnamon French Toast, myriad baking spices, much more Upmann than Punch - reminds more of a well aged Upmann No.2. Smooth clearly super premium aged tobacco here. Superb construction - held ash like a champ. Two hours.

  37. Sad that a formerly useful top-10 heavyweight was lowered into WWF style entertainment while still physically in his prime (not like this hasn't happened before!). Mentally Joshua is shot though, you could see his relief at surviving a fight against a YouTuber after the end. Hopefully the era of Saudi cash won't descend into farce, so many good fights to be made between real contenders and a few future Hall of Famers (Inoue, Bivol and Usyk for starters).

  40. Paul actually got hurt this fight & is gonna be laid up a bit. And Fury is even bigger than Joshua. Jake Paul is an influencer, NOT a boxer no matter how hard he tries to pose & train as one. No way he can hang with Fury unless Fury is heavily incentivized to carry the fight to the mid-to-late rounds. Fury just leaning on him for 3-4 rounds will wear him out. My guess is we may see the Paul circus act 2-3 more times for paydays & that will be it. He's a bozo & not a serious fighter.

  41. We always stopped to see her and pick up some of her great sticks. I’m surprised to see her. When did she come out of retirement?

  42. Got one of these at Intertabac at Dortmund. It was OK for me, but milder than I was expecting. I like the flavors that were there, but they were all too faint to me. It's like an Alma Del Campo (a much better stick) that fell way flat. Combine that with the fact Plasencia seems to be copying Davidoff's pricing, and I won't reach for these either.

  43. Picked up the steel version of the Seagull Icon II for my old man. Now to sneak it into his watch box sometime in the near future as a surprise. Might also get him a deployant clasp to go with it.

  45. As much as I love the episodes with great cigars, the ones where you’re disappointed almost teach me even more. You guys actually TRY to find something to compliment and even try to think of whether any smoker would like something if you don’t. This episode had a lot of great parts despite your not liking the cigar really at all. I love how you broke down why it was failing, the issues with the blend vs with construction, and even after all that want to give the brand a chance to wow you. It’s content like this that keeps me coming back. A bunch of cigar guys really searching and challenging themselves and the makers to do everyone’s best. I especially appreciate that you hold brands accountable to price. When discussing this cigar and the Davidoff Limited Editions (think that was earlier in the episode), you went out of your way (as did Senator) to mention that if a cigar has a high price but is excellent, it might be worth it in some cases. But when brands charge $30+ for a single stick, that stick had better BRING IT. As for Aganorsa, I’ve never tried one. But I’ve also never met a smoker in my or any lounge who has lit one next to me. I think that says a lot in its own right for such a large brand (whereas I’m not shocked nobody has lit an Avowed or Stoic next to me despite their being amazing). Great episode. And, for what it’s worth, pigs in a blanket rule, and my wife insists on having them at Christmas. Though she dips them in ketchup, which might be a war crime.

  46. Cigars and whisky are two luxury items that I have spent a lot of money on in the past. Every time, I am left thinking the cost was not worth the taste, but it was worth the experience. Like most regular folks, I can't afford to enjoy the higher ended options often lot but every now and then, its worth the experience. With that said, the only cigar that I would be willing to pay over $100 for fresh/new would be a BHK. If I could get a 20+ year aged Monte #2, Fundie, Esplindido, or Sig 6 then I would jump all over those as well.

  47. None for me. In reality they are just rolled up leaves...even though I spend maybe 2k a month on cigars but to me, no cigar is worth $100.
