CIGAR SMOKIN' AND BS

Just bought a 5 pack. Caught me on a good night with my wallet and whiskey at my side at the computer.

I'll keep a look out locally.

 

Try a Java any of them are good as far as coffee. A Nub Cameroon is really good too but not flavored.

 

A little r&r time at the lake with a La Aurora Principes Caribbean. Perfect beach stick.

 

I've had Latte, Mocha and Mint to try them all, and I don't think I was overly impressed with them but I am into giving them another shot. It's been a while and who knows if my palate has changed since then.

 

Long time no post

 

Quick smoke after a good day of riding.

 

Finally. Nice grad present from my neighbor, it’s not bad at all. Cool weather means it’s time to sit down, enjoy some rum and relax.

 

I like these cigars, unique flavor.

 

Alex Bradley Magic Toast for my last free afternoon (CSection scheduled Tuesday morning)

 

Alec Bradley makes good cigars, huge fan of the sun grown line, I’ll try this next!

Currently having a black and mild and watching the Niners game while making discada.

 

Reference my recent order of Macanudos Hyde Park Cafe (4 five packs) from Cigar Page.
As a longtime Macanudo smoker I’m very familiar with the brand. This order, the cigars seemed different. The blend was not at all bad, just different from what I know it to be. Just maybe a tiny bit not as smooth. I know that them needing some more aging could explain that….But, to my surprise, the cigars were apparently short filler. The ash kept falling off unexpectedly. I’ve never known them to be short filler.
The cigar bands seemed genuine, so either Macanudo changed their blend, or I received counterfeits. Just mentioning this if anyone has experienced this.

 

I’ve had quite a few Macanudos and the ash is pretty stubborn, I’ve never had one where it kept falling off. That’s strange.

 

this looks good to me, need to track one down.

 

I agree. Im used to some impressive gravity defying ash from them.

 

Next one.

 

Whoever recommended this thank you. Kinda sweet wrapper with a mild but tasteful draw.

 

It was @Slashaar and yes those are very good!

 

I’m just bummed I could only get my hands on chunkys and not bigger sizes.

 

Oh, the cherry!

 

My favorite. Are those sweets or just plain KFC? If you like the KFC try the Liga Privada Nasty Fritas. I enjoyed it pretty closely to the non-sweet kfc.


On another note, I'm picking up about 16 different sticks from a guy getting rid of his stuff. Can't wait to try some of them.
