    Had my first LFD Cameroon Cabinet. Not bad. I had a few burn issues, which I half expected with all the large veins in the wrapper. It was the first stick I've had that had a noticeable improvement in the second half over the first in both flavor and smoothness. I have 2 more that will rest for a bit longer before revisiting.

    Something! Hopefully two somethings...haven't had a smoke in a week, and that one had burn issues from the get-go (Life lesson: Don't by Cigars from head shops, just forego). Last good cigar was at the SE Herf.

    But tonight I'll be at a concert on the lawn and taking advantage of their open smoking policy. Thinking Cain maduro or Oliva G maduro for at least one.

    Tried a NUB Maduro last night, dunno....i just don't think I'm into NUBS, I got half way through it and it really heated up on me and started to taste awful...had to put it down.

    Had my first ever candela wrapper - a Don Tomas toro - that i got last Christmas. Finally decided to give it a whirl, and I have to say that it will probably be my last candela.

    why is that ?
    if its because it was too mild, try the camacho candela.

    Last night I had a Padilla Obsidian that has been resting in the humi for about 2 years now and it was a great smoke. I know these get bashed on here a lot, but I've had several and never had any burn issues. It started out with a slightly tight draw, but opened up well about 1/3 into it and the flavor was consistently good throughout. The time in the humi did it wonders with the flavor.

    It was pretty mild, but I don't mind a mild stick as long as it has some nice flavors. I was expecting that 'grassy' flavor that people use to describe candelas to be strong on the front of the palate, but it was very subtle, so early on it wasn't too bad. But the more I smoked, the more I got this nasty 'vegetable' taste lingerining on the finish that got worse the longer i smoked it (don't know how else to describe it other than it wasn't pleasant to me).

    I haven't had the Camacho, but Kuzi has recommended it to me before as well, but the Fuente 8-5-8 Candela is a damn good smoke.

    Well hell, maybe I threw out the baby with the bathwater. It probably was a little naive to judge all candelas based on a Don Tomas, but I'm still not sure I'd like the candela flavor profile. If I come across a Camacho or 8-5-8 I'll have to try it.

    Thinking I'll either smoke an AF Hemingway, 5 Vegas Miami, or revisit the Nica Libre. What do you guys think?

    Well, just to ensure that we are absolutely no help at all, I'll go ahead and vote for the 5Vegas Miami! lol (I was actually going to suggest that one anyway).
