    Vegas Robaina Famosos---Great Cigar.
    People think they are so rebellious and original, when really they are just banal, boring and dumb.

    Had that Punch London Maduro last night. Quite nice! Good flavor, and I enjoyed the shorter time commitment. Went well with Odell's Double Pilsner and Grand Teton's Sweetgrass APA.

    There are indeed cigars that go well with beer. Maduro wrapper cigars are one of these. They contrast the hops with sweet and earthy flavors.

    How as the ESG, Tom? I'm tempted by them, but they're pricey for a cigar I don't like.

    Tonight for me a VSG Tres Mystique with Oban.

    I would say grab the Davidoff. It goes well with Oban too.

    Tonight was a PSD4.

    I smoked hands down the best cigar I've ever experienced last night. Actually it was too long for me to even finish. I went to a cigar shop in Thousand Oaks, CA, and was thrilled to see that they even had their own roller in the back. I bought some of his dark wrappers. I don't know what to call them. They look like maduros and are about the thickness of a corona, but much longer. I spent about an hour puffing on a slow burning 2 inches or so, and it was sublime.

    Got it in a Holt's sampler I could not resist. '90-Rated Pure Decadence'' Super Sampler. http://www.holts.com/category.html?i...4&trail=201277. I enjoyed it but would not go the list price for it. Nice burn, lots of smoke evolving flavors but my burned out buds needed the Mi Amor Belicoso to really get in the groove.
