Thats all I can think of right now...not very many surprisingly.
Well here is my updated list since I had to change from everyday sticks to more special sticks. I figured if I can only smoke once a week at most, why not make it a good one.
Oliva V (Reg and Maduro)
Tatuaje Brown/ Black/ Monster
La Riqueza
Camacho Liberty
AF Anejo
AF OpusX
Oliva MB
Padron Anniv.
OpusX
camacho slr maduro Punch Gran Puro Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte Madrid 5 Vegas series A Gurkha Centurian partagas black gurkha Regent CAO Italia oliva series V
thats probably the short list. Im sure i forgot something.
Looks like the Ashton VSG is on the list of everyone except doody and maddy. Doody hasn't had one. What's your excuse, maddy?
Same excuse as duty. I have a couple resting now but still haven't smoked one.
Really? That surprises me.
Me too. THe only reason I can think is that they're not talked about much at my B&M. They don't say anythign bad about them, but nothing good either. That and after the Ashton rep was such a *** at the San Cristobal event I vowed to never buy another Ashton. I broke that but I bought the VSG enchantment in St. Louis, so it came from a different rep. It made me feel better.
If its nice this weekend I'll smoke the Belicoso that I've had since August. To celebrate the succesful installation of my new front door which is my project for the weekend.
its good but it doesnt knock my socks off. ...a tiny bit pricey for what it is in my mind. the taste is great but in reality, cost is a factor in my life.
I smoked a VSG a few days ago. It was OK, and I would not turn one down in the future. I would also not go out of my way to buy another. Like I said, to me it was OK, but nothing that special.
Alright gonna post my favorite sticks and try this line break thing, didn't work the first time so we will see.
Padron 6000 natural (any thousand series really)
Padron 26 #9 natural
Ashton VSG torpedo
Fuente Hemmingway Classic (classic cigar flavor)
Fuente Sungrown Churchill
Tatuaje Cojuno 2006 (Maddy I tried the 2003 it is good but prefer the 2006)
And my new favorite Litto Gomez Chisel
No problem Dep everyone has their own opinion. IMO the 2003 builds up, it get spicier and stronger while the 2006 is at its strongest when you first light it and it mellows as you smoke it.

I have two more, the first one didn't do that I'll see what the other one's do. If they both do that then I would be with you on prefering the 2003 over the 2006.

I've had at least 10-15 of each and this has been my generic experience. Not everyone I've smoked has fit that criteria but most have. My second issue is that the 2006 is a belicoso and it seems to build up tar where I've never had that experience with the 2003.
Ya know Maddy, I kinda hate you for talking about Tatuaje so much. Because of your talk, I had to try some, and they were good. But that wasn't enough, I had to get some of the Cojonu 2003 to see if they are "that good". But even that's not enough, suddenly I found myself becoming a Pete Johnson **** in that I want to look into and try everything the guy has made or will make. Great cigars indeed, but man, I'm running myself ragged trying to sample all these different cigars. The madness has to end somewhere.
