I think tonight after dinner I am going to try out the LFD Double Ligero Chisel wwhwang sent me. I can't remember if it's a maduro or the sumatra. If it's as good as the Air Bender I am going to have a tough time deciding what my next box purchase will be.
Want a real dilemma Russ, smoke the Lito Gomez Diez chisel as well and then try to figure out which box you want. I bet you'd have your wife or son drawing a pick from a hat.
Well, I just finished up the DL Sumatra Chisel, and it's going on my "buy more" list. Don't know if it's going on the box section, but I'll definitely be getting more. It was an interesting stick. I can't think of another stick I've had that it reminds me of.
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.
