Good choice not to have the Laphroaig with that ERDM! yeah I dont know what cigar could pair with that smoky laporaigh...el dorado was amazingly good. Cigar, not so much. first dud of the box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel1968 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 RA Extra and Cohiba 1966. RA had some draw issues so no comments, the Cohiba had a good taste but saw (too) little evolution and to my palate a lack of substance. More mouth covering than mouth filling.

Oh no... not the first report of draw issues with the RA Extra I've seen now I really would have hoped that they got the quality control right at least for an LE. Crossing my fingers that my box will be OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deodato Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 An utterly amazing PSD4 from LEU JUL 10. These come around for me about as often as the perfect golf shot (not often!) but the feeling is the same - at one with the universe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotusguy Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Punch Petit Coronations A/T. Didn't have time for anything larger yet. Not as good as I remember the last one from this box. Oh well - they are C&C for a reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougB Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Yesterday had a Bolivar Corona Junior on the way to a cooking gig and then a Bolivar Corona Extras on the way home. Good stuff but wish I chose an Upmann no.2 for the ride back. The box of MGA JUN '10 that I have (or JUL- I forget which) are smoking beautifully.

riazp Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Partagas serie E2 and trinidad reyes last night. Reyes exellent as usual. E2 was nice through the first half. It had that partagas dna in it. Second half no so much. Suffered imensly from its youth (may 11) it was basically straight tobacco, almost NC like. I saw the potential in that first third where it was classic partagas. Won't be revisiting this cigar till next summer most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilgrims Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Por Larranaga Robusto (Asia Pacific release) was very good if a little overly mild...nicely mellow, I have a few more and will enjoy then but don't know that I'd rush to buy more but decent enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrody Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Last night an 08 Hup Connie 1. Just loved it, an love upman. This morning a 08 monte5. Double shot of espresso with a twist of lemon rind. Now a 07 Siglo I. Cohiba and I haven't been seeing eye to eye. Neither has 07 stock. But this Siglo I is changing that for the better! Coffee with steamed milk and sugar, beany, little grassy. Great balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CigarAsh Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Trini Rob T. I have never seen what all the fuss has been about. I've smoked a handful of these, albeit somewhat young, and have never been all that impressed. Give me 4 or 5 Reyes' instead. They're good but only worth the fuss at half the price. There are a lot of better robustos at better prices (or the same price). Today was a bad day for my teams (Chiefs and Sporting KC both went down badly) so I soothed the pain with an 898 varnished and now enjoying a very tasty PLPC after dinner.

Lotusguy Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Started with some Arturo Fuente that I'd rather forget about (at least now only six sticks left in this Xmas sampler box) followed by a Dip 4 which delivered as usual and tonight my first ever RA Celestiales Finos - so good that I am on my way to ordering a box!

Monte 2 to celebrate Dolphins first victory. Glad they didn't make me wait until week 16 again. On the bright side Cigarcrash everyone in the Chiefs division is playing equally as bad.

On the bright side Cigarcrash everyone in the Chiefs division is playing equally as bad. LOL. If we both waited for wins before enjoying our smokes, think how much money we could save! Yesterday was so bad, I had already gone out to the deck to smoke my Upmann at halftime. I knew it was over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only funny cause it's true hang in there we are only half way thru the season save the good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
