    I'll have to smoke another to recollect,but I know they are pleasant med body. At there price point they are hard to beat. I think I would get a little better tasting without the snow storm next time:)

    image well this is an oddball gurk as it has very good draw, is burning straight, wrapper has not yet exploded, etc. It has a unique flavor that I cannot place, I got some hints of peppermint, meatiness, and cedar; the body seemed to be up and down during this first 1/2 inch. Some have said this stick is too mild but time will tell, I expect it to be in the med range.

    Some musty spice as well, not your average aging girl bad member either!

    yea it is hard to find, one small tobacco outlet has them here in this longer perfecto vitola, I am enjoying it. If it were a few bucks less I could see stocking up.

    House Blue Label. Some construction issues on this stick, but it's going great with my coffee. Not bad at all.
    Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    Smoking a Verdadero organic Robusto with my coffee, so far so good

    First i had a Flor De Las Antillas. Going in didnt have high expectations as i am not a big MF fan. But this cigar blew me away.

    Next up we have a Viaje Holiday Blend 2012. So far pretty good.

    image some hay and herbal spice in there with a creaminess. The sweetness is picking up at 3/4 of an inch, nice.

    Most I have had of these in longsdale have been too tight on draw. I poked this one, which made the flavors even better. image

    yep, and if that doesn't work there is little hope after dry boxing. Without a good draw, a cigar can't really shine and I usually get no flavor out of it.

    Overrated, a few Viajes that I've had.

    Underrated, Perdomo. Lot 23 being my fav.


    It's all daniel's faulty. freezing my butt off and really enjoying my first Lot 23.
