Today was a Fuentes Anejo 46.. This has been hiding in my humidor for over two years, and came to me through the generousiity of a brother here..Scrambler. This cigar was one of the strongest I had in a while. During the hour and a half burn time I got tons of flavor, It started out spicy on the tongue and throat but that faded quickly. With flavors of black coffee, earthy tones, a sort of a sour/tart taste, and licorice, there was a lot going on here. There was a finish I can't put words to, which must have been from the cognac cured wrapper. The down side, and this is a first for me, I think I got a nicotine overdose, I felt REALLY bad, Dizzy, headache, upset stomach, nervous, and I needed to sleep it off. It may be awhile before I try this one again.
Had a LFD Air Bender Matatan last nite....it wasn't as good as I remember my last one for some reason. Going to have the LFD Mysterio Maduro tonite....maybe it will be better.
Had a Padilla Miami last night... probably my favorite Padilla thus far.
You just made my day Stephen. I just got a couple of the Miami in the humi this week and I haven't ever tried one yet. Can't wait for them to rest enough to fire one up.
Puffing on a Cu-Avano Intenso right now. My first one. So far so bad. Can't get a draw to save my life. Tight as can be and I can feel a knot about 2/3 of the way down and can't loosen it up. I'll give it a few more minutes and may have to pitch it. I have another but I think I'll let it rest if this one doesn't work out.

The 1932 was good though.
