    Having a Perdomo Champagne Noir.. Seems great so far.
    Any bourbon flavor in there? AB Tempus for me, RYJ 1875 for my Father in law.
    Didn't seem to but I'm horrible with dissecting flavors. If its in there, it's subtle.

    Sweet! Been trying to find one at any of the b&m's around here but not ONE has any. Had my first Liga #9 and was just floored with how amazing that stick was, just got me even more amped up about the Rat. Any idea of Ccom does??

    How was it?
    Delicious! I still prefer the Natural, but the Maduro is a great smoke too!

    Thanks for the update. Ive been wondering about those since the wrapper is aged in bourbon barrels. I love bourbon barrel aged beer so the Noir sounds awesome to me.

    If I would have known that earlier I would've picked you up some. Place I went to today had one full box. I picked up one and a couple #9's. If I get back up there anytime soon I'll keep you in mind.

    Thanks man, I'm no mooch (except for the mooch game lol) so I would pay you for them, but thanks a bunch man! Any idea if these babies would benefit from a year or two of age? IF so I'd pick up a three pack so I could enjoy one ROTT and then age a few, but if not I wouldn't want to waste the time, ya know?

    No worries. First one I've had. Not sure how old it is but it's damn good. Should've bought more. Problem is the place is like an hour from me.

    Dont go out of your way, please! If they have them next time you are in and they are reasonable pick me up some... anyone I have worked with knows I'm good for it, hopefully I can make it worth your while my friend :)

    Sitting with the wife at the b&m having an Esteban 211 Toro... Very mild and very good. Notes of hay, vanilla, some cedar and oak and a little leather. Waiting for FTG to show up and do a day of herfing :)

    It was amazing! Maintains the same profile throughout which honestly is a good thing with this cigar. Sooo good!

    Today was a Ramon Allones Specially Selected.. This was great. I only had it a couple months, but couldn't hold off any longer. With a flavor profile of Leather, Nut, Honey, and wood this cigar delivered. The burn was a little off at the start but straighted itself out and needed no additional attention.

    The honey taste was what really made this stick special. As soon as I finished it, I wanted another. They are so good now, I can't imagine what some rest will do to them. This could be a problem..

    Thanks to jOz3r who got this one into my hand.. Your the best.

    Awesome, glad to hear you enjoyed it. I've been amazed at the quick transition these made from being just harsh and flavorless (first couple weeks) to really rounding out and becoming quite nice around the one month mark, I attribute that to the trip overseas and the cigars needing to return to baseline.

    Just lit up a 5Vega A. This is my first time trying one. It's a petite robusto size got a bit of a tight draw but an ok stick so far.
