Styler Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 All I could think through the entire video was "been there!". Well done for struggling on, all for our benefit The only SLR I've tried is the Regio but I have a few 2008 churchills coming my way from a trade. Will have to try and pick up some Serie A now as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWalker Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 famous last words, "one piece can't hurt" Had my first serie A last year and I really loved it. I could be talked into buying a box of these for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riazp Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I'll make a cameo in one of these someday I think you should Mate, Way to save this Review Kurt,I think the KFC saved the day! You know Smithy, Rob, I gotta thank you for this review, its exactly what I needed this morning, just two mates having a laugh and smoking cigars, put a smile to my face, Thanks for cheering me up this morning. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laficion Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Well done Rob & smithy, Aside from the Johnny Walker & the KFC, It was great to finally see a review on this fine Habano. The SLR Series A has been one of my go to cigar for over, scheeeh, for soooo long that I can't even remember anymore, at least 25 years. I've seen a real change in the blend since 2007-2008 and I must say, for the better. As I've already said here on the forum, I'm a Corona Gorda Guy and, for the moment, not ready to change. I love the delicate notes with earthness, slight leathery, nutty, honey, goodness me, I'm getting carried away, LOL To make a long story short, there will always be SLR Series A and HdM Epicure No.1 in my humidor. As long as Cuba makes them, they will stay my every day cigars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramon_cojones Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 i always look forward to these reviews, they are in fact how I found FOH a few years ago (though I didn't register until later). Rob, any trips planned for LA in the coming future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Damn, now I've got to try one. Everything you gents pointed out in terms of flavour appeals to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones from 06 on are indeed quite different, but I much prefer the 02s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushman Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Not sure what I enjoyed more, Rob's transition from seriously hungover to enjoyably tipsy again or the progression of the cigar. Well done fellas. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=20.631688,-87.070600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scradley Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Haha had a good laugh at this one on lunch, enjoyed the complete 180 of energy level after the KFC arrived... Sounds like quite an enjoyable stick may have to purchase a few of these in the near future.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctorossi Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 enjoyed the complete 180 of energy level after the KFC arrived... Sounds like quite an enjoyable stick may have to purchase a few of these in the near future.. You're talking about the Serie A, not the KFC drumstick, right? Hey, that might be a good idea for a sampler pack: 5 SLR Serie A and a 10-piece bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schumi5 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Rob, next time you are out writing on the deck you should pen an article giving us some, "Good Husband Advice". I'll even write your opening tidbit for you, "When you find yourself in the doghouse, ensure you come home the following day smelling of equal parts scotch, fried chicken and stale cigar smoke!" Classic review Gents, great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaleehb Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Bought a box of these last year from Czar. I think the code is ABR 11. Smoked a couple and decided they need some time to rest. Sounds like it may be time to sample again..... Thanks for the review! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
