The date on these is 11/7/16 and they are still hitting like a truck! Very smooth but still very full bodied. I'm sure the larger ring gage is adds to it but they start off almost too full bodied. Bought a box of Leccia Luchador El Castigo at the same time and they are similar accept that the Caberete calms down halfway, while the Leccia Luchador El Castigo is a firecracker the whole way through. Still have most of the box because they are still almost too strong. Really enjoying the Caberete now. Only wish I would have kept the cigar box. Nicest cigar box I ever bought.
Is that a game of thrones dragon cigar holder? Looks pretty awesome!
It is listed as a Snow Dragon.
I made it copper, instead of white and widened the original design, to better fit a cigar holder.
The original was whitish and narrower.
The picture is the original design.
In Fumo Pax Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
Diesel UHC is tasting a bit flat and flavorless after the Caberete. I generally enjoy these as a solid value smoke but it's not doing much for me at this point. I guess it's like eating a 5 Guys burger for lunch then eating a McDonald's burger after. These are dated 12/15/2011 so they may just be getting past their prime with extended aging. Will have to choose a better pairing next time for a follow up cigar.
Crazy Alice. My first “aromatic” stick. Puts off so much smoke the neighbors are gonna call the fire department. Geez...
UPDATE: this is a hard pass for me. The sweet taste wasn’t terrible- but after smoking some quality cigars recently, I’ve come to appreciate good tobacco.

So glad these are finally done resting. Incredible stick and I picked up a 10er for $40. Loving every puff!

Not sure, it's from @0patience, it is pretty cool.

Diesel UHC on fire now. Star gazing.

In give up.... it’s like 7+ years old....
Been smoking dinner all day on the Rec-Tec! 13 lb brisket. Definitely going to need a good cigar post dinner.
Final product:
Camacho Triple Maduro... from ME
Why not.
Did it suck? How was it?
Freaking stellar. Its suck quotient is the square root of zero.
My last one and oldest cigar dated 06/23/2011.
I already bid on some more
