It's official. My favorite new to me cigar is the CLE Cuarenta...I love this cigar, Medium in body with a fantastic aroma and flavor profile of leather, wood and nuttiness that I completely enjoyed. Perfect construction, burn and draw. One of my top five ever for sure.

Good to know I was just looking at this one today thinking I might like it based on profile. Just finished a Flor de la Antillas toro tonight. Pretty dang good. Not sure about cigar of the year but...The first half was really interesting with mild spice, and a wood vs leather battle going on. Second half changed and was less interesting to me, the construction was flawless however. I could see a really high rating if only smoking the first 1/3-1/2 of this one. Very well balanced.
Padilla Artemis - not a fan but the beer was good and sitting outside watching it pour in the middle of January in STL was nice.

Love the tigers. Went to SEMO (chased a girl), but grew up on Mizzou's campus because my dad and 2 uncles are alums. Do yourself a favor and head back there for a football game. Fun environment now a days.

nice man. i used to go to a ton of mizzou football games when I was in high school. I miss that. gotta get back out there when our boys try to do a bit better next year in the SEC!
Read some reviews, and several mentioned a "mystery flavor" at the end that the reviewer just couldn't put his finger on. I think I figured it out...popcorn. Movie theater popcorn, lightly buttered and slightly burnt. I know my popcorn, and that's what it seemed like to me. Like some burned bits from a bad batch got mixed in with the next batch and served up. Not entirely unpleasant, though, despite my usual dislike for popcorn in general and burned popcorn in particular.
Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.

Then I had a disappointing Cohiba... was great constuction, just weak and uninteresting...
Great cigar for my after work walk with the dog. Thanks Davis for the great smoke!!
