    Today was a 5 Vegas Limitada 2006.. I got this one from a brother here. I will have to do a little research to find out whom, edit.. (did the research, Thank you Joz3r sent on 10/09/09 )... thanks for this stick. Very smooth and mild with a wood and toast profile. Changed to a more grassy taste near the end. A stick I am sure to never have again, but grateful that I got a chance to try this one.

    Just lit up my first Opus. I have to say my fears were realized. Flavor profile not really my style and as soon as I lit it up the wrapper cracked over an inch. (sat in the humi for over a year @ 65-68%)

    I ash about every half inch. The biggest "problem" is the sticks flavor profile isnt really my cup of tea. It was having trouble staying lit too. Seemed to be a poorly constructed stick. I have 3 or 4 more in varius vitolas so I will def. revisit.

    Since I kept seeing the Isla del sol in the sprint sale, Thought it was time to open up the vault where the Chemwarfare bomb that Mr DBeckom unloaded on me is kept. Not bad, nice sweet morning smoke, going good with afternoon coffee, Thanks DB!! Moped? what Moped..

    Great cheap cigar, a little inconsistent but for the price can't be beat. I picked up a mazo of 20 for less than 30 bucks not too long ago.

    Well, today I'm enjoying a Graycliff Turbo that some kind BORK bombed me with, and I'm kinda surprised with it. It's listed as full-bodied but it's so smooth it's more like a medium. And I'm a little curious as to the blend. If you look closely at the band, it says 'G2 Turbo'. Now, to me, the G2 is a milder blend and I'm wondering if the Turbo is just an amped-up version of the G2. Anybody know the answer to this?

    IMO they blow the doors off the reg G2 , AJ Fernandez blended the turbo..

    I didn't know it was one of AJ's but that explains a lot. No wonder I like it. Thanks.

    Edit: But I see that AJ also blended the G2. Maybe it is an amped-up G2, ya s'pose?
