FOH'ers Daily Smoke

LGR SEP 18 La Fuerza.  Ash  just dropped where I repaired it. Honestly this is the first SCDLH I have enjoyed. Sweet toasted tobacco not a whole lot more but no wet cardboard as i usually get. Not bad.

This box of RASS has been disappointing. Although it has a nice cold aroma, construction and wrapper. this one, while not acrid, was bland with Burnt cardboard notes which started getting bitter in first third. Pitched it for a great backup hitter. Partagas Shorts is no show pony.

This thing is a turd burglar, dog rocket, rat’s ass, i don’t know what else to say. U pick the euphemism. Relight after relight, tastes like nothing, i don’t know. 30 min of my life i’ll never get back.

Boli PC (MSU Jul-19)  So young yet, so smooth.  Great with morning coffee.

Feb 19 Lusi. First from the box. Frustrated me a little for the first third or so w a bit of an uneven burn (I’m a stickler there) and so-so smoke production but it improved over time, can still see a little of an uneven burn now. Will revisit in a couple years. 

Ice cold Presidente (vestido de novia) is perfect as always. Cheers everyone.

Two cigar day yesterday as it was my birthday. Not really a celebration as my wife and I would normally do, all thanks to this whole deal of shenanigans of happening right now and nothing being open. A great QdO 50 for a C&C break while my son was napping in the afternoon, and a meh JL Chiado ER Portugal ORA DIC 14 last evening (just a wind tunnel, completely underfilled).

Happy Birthday!

Fiancé and I are making our guestlist for the wedding tonight.  Enjoyed one of my favorite go-to IPAs and a little non-plus that was flawless. 

 

Now you’re just showing off. Impressive

Padron Family Reserve 44 Years Maduro, it's a 9 years old cigar, personally I prefer 'natural' when smoke FF 44, and I should've picked natural one .

Burnproof tent peg cigars are literally dog rockets to me as well. Reviewing these sticks isn't enjoyable but rather a tormenting and sadistic chore from hell! I spent almost more than half fuel of my lighter when I was reviewing tent peg burnproof Partagas EL Series No. 1!

Worked through a CCE and some 45th Parallel Border Bourbon after dinner this evening.

Montecristo No.3 - why people smoke the No.4 over this is a mystery. Much better size.

RAG AGO 17 La Trova after a very good day. This is only the second from this box and it was outstanding. Unlike the Dantes I had the other day that I had high hope for but was left wanting more, this I also had high hopes for and it far exceeded them.

Salomones from the always gracious and generous Abel. Rolled sometime by La China I believe. If you have never visited the restaurant of the once Partagas hefe on San Lazaro, do so once it is safe to travel again. Great food, great man. A spectacular smoke today. Almost 3h of bliss.

M#4 is such a good cigar currently.

Montecristo No.2 GOS Ago 2018

If I asked you to think of Montecristo as a brand you are likely to think of one or two things; one, how inconsistent they can be at times (depending on the vitola) and two, they have a number of regular production vitolas (currently it's 24 including the Linea 1935 series and the Habanos Specialist release, the Herederos) but the main ones that most people know about are the Montecristo No.2 and Montecristo No.4.

This Montecristo No.2 was from a quarter pack I acquired from a 24:24 listing at some point in late '18/early '19. I specifically wanted them because they were listed as being light-wrappered. I have a 10-count box that I've been going through from 2015 in my inventory and these Monte 2s are dark-wrappered. So what's the difference, in general? I guess I've tended to find the light-wrappered Monte 2s more nutty, creamy and milk chocolate; the dark-wrappered Monte 2s alternatively have been more dark cocoa and stronger notes of coffee. This hasn't been the case for every single example of these, however, I am speaking in generalisations.

I've had two recent examples of UEB '18 Montecristo No.4 box codes and both these boxes have produced a remarkable consistency in delivering a distinctive 'citrus' twang to them. This Montecristo No.2 was not like that. Rather, it was very simple in its flavours; these being a light powdered cocoa, milk coffee and rich smooth leather. It was simple delicious from beginning to end!

Not all Montecristo No.2s are going to smoke like this today. If you've smoked a number over the years you'll know exactly what I mean. But when they do, 'boy oh boy' are they great!
