Party P2!

[FlyFish]

Smoked a 46 today and it absolutely SUCKED. Today was one of those days when you realize you are smoking a hand made product. It tunneled, unraveled, and tasted like crap. These are among my favorites so I am counting on this just being a bad one that slipped through.

My last 3 cigars have been fantastic. First off, I started with a Cruzado Marelas (perfecto) that Mwiltse had suggested. I'd had the previous release of the Cruzados and wasn't impressed. He explained that the original release came with a wrapper Dion didn't intend and that I should give them another chance. Since I'm a big fan of Illusione, I gave it a go and was impressed! I followed that with a DPG Cuban Classic robusto just 'cuz I wasn't finished smokin'. It's a fairly pedestrian smoke, but didn't dissappoint. Most recently, I ventured down to Smokey Joe's for $2.00 AYCE tacos and a Mariners game. I broke out the big gun for the game and fired up an Illusione Dark Prince at the top of the 3rd inning. It lasted to the bottom of the 10th and burned perfectly throughout. I've smoked several of these, but it is rare as I usually don't have the time to commit to such a large cigar. The flavor was fantastic. I didn't need to relight it a single time, nor did it need a single touch-up. At $14/stick, it isn't exactly cheap, but considering it's 9 1/4 x 48, you get a lot of smokin' out of it. This weekend I'll be smoking a Cain Habano, an Illusione HL and hopefully I'll have time for another stick or three.

Been too busy to smoke but last Thursday with the crew, I got to enjoy a fabulous Sir Winnie from 01!

[Bsneed51]

La Gloria Cubana Medialle d'or 4 and an '03 Siglo III while celebrating my buddies birthday last night.

[siriusstoogie]

Nice day for an ice cold Surly Furious paired with a very satisfying JL2 from 99. Then grilled a NY strip prime. Best Sunday, yet! The week looks quite busy but today is enough to see me through.


It just got better...warm apple pie with vanilla ice cream!!!!

Hermoso LE 2004 which was a gift. I smoked it with the Thursday night crew! Very tasty!

[siriusstoogie]

Smoking soem spareribs this afternoon. First of the season. While waiting, a Don Alejandro from 08 (never disappoints) and Surly Furious. Listened to the Yankees beat Texas! Now listening to some Classic Vinyl from Sirius. Great weather here in Minnesota. Will enjoy the ribs with my boys and then lighting up the fire pit. Nice day!

Best,
Joe

Yesterday, Don Alejandros '97 with a friend, without knowing that the great legend is no more

[siriusstoogie]

Yesterday, a La Aroma de Cuba Toro while cleaning the garage. This one started out meh but picked up after the first third. It was good enough to nub! Go figure.


Best,

Joe

[fordjustom]

yesterday i smoked an avo 80th

[siriusstoogie]

WOAM from 2004 paired with Surly Abrasive--sublime experience!!!

[fordjustom]

to reward myself for the past few months of work on my Hudson I took a boris along with me today cause I figured that if this damn thing passed its safety inspection then it will be back on the road and 100% legal again. It passed so I lit up a Tat Boris and took a very slow enjoyable ride home. WOO WOO

Smoking a Tat Black robusto. Pretty nice, but the brother who gifted it is the real star. On a trip to Dark Lord Day,Rich a local, gave both me and the other guy traveling with him the new Jaime Garcia Reserve and the Black on the way.

[TBaGZ]

Smoked an anejo 55 yesterday at the pool, starting today off with a lil 1926 #35, and am thinking either a anejo 49 or maybe a 1964 'A' tmorrow on the golf course. hmmmmmmm

[siriusstoogie]

I smoked a gifted Boli CE I think from 2008. I did not like it as much as the circa 99-98.


Edited to add: Two of the MPLS crew and I smoked PFR44th maddies at our weekly herf and unanimously concluded that these PFR44ths were damn good smokes!

I was fortunate to be able to try a Tatuaje Cohete from a brother at my local b&m. Surprising amount of pop in this little guy.

opus perf x last night

Smoked a Nestor Miranda Dominico Robusto Grande. It's a very nice cigar Pepin made for Nestor with a Dominican wrapper from the folks at La Aurora. Worth a try in my book.

[siriusstoogie]

SLR A 03...Thanks Coventrycat for introducing me to this cigar some years back

[elderboy02]

I had a Vegueros Seoane on the way into work today. I need to get some more of these.

[elderboy02]

NHC Seleccion Limitada Natural

It was very good.

[W.B.]

Had a surprisingly good cigar based off of previous experience with the company, a Viaje TNT. Definitely worth a try if you can get your hands on one. It had a note I've not previously experienced in a cigar, strange but smokiness like a peaty Scotch.

Had a LFD Premium line churchill. Mild cigars like this for me are way out of the norm but it was a very enjoyable diversion. Finishing up with a Carlos Torano Tribute 2008 churchill after golf and a steak. Pretty good night for me. Lucky to be an American, not to many working stiffs on this earth are so blessed. God Bless America!
