Today I tried a Rocky Patel 1999 Vintage Connecticut in the Torpedo... very smooth smoke indeed... my favorite to date

In my lounge downtime I had an A Fuente Gran Reserva, Oliva special G, and tonight a Padron 3000.

Gee it must have been bad for you if you didn't smoke a single CAO.

I got in the Por Larranaga double corona Maduro a few nights ago. Its another homerun cigar if you ask me. Starting right out with coffee and molasses notes and progressing to the heavier leather and wood notes in a big finish. I think I might have burnt my fingers and maybe lips on this one due to the nub factor.

In the process of cleaning out my humidor I found a LaFinca. I decided to give it a try. PU in short. Lousy draw, horrible papery, metalic flavors and some pretty stinky smoke coming out of that thing. :eusa_doh:
Lastly, a decent night tonight as there is a local Ashton cigar event that might be worth attending.

I generally don't bring my favorites to work since it's not as enjoyable as relaxing at home. Those Larranagas are great!

Of course it isn't as enjoyable---its work!

The double corona maduro is excellent with the Dalmore Cigar Malt by the way. :cheers1:
The La Finca is good if you want to induce vomitting---good for getting out of work.

Never heard of Dalmore,

Tonight as we sat with no electricty and still no power, We had an Oliva Series G and a Series V.

Ah, cigar smoking weather I see.

Call the electric company and use your PD muscle to get er done.

Had a Dalmore with a PL last night. I definitely have heard of it.

Good evening all,

I am usually found in the outerwear bar but as I enjoy a cigar thought I would drop by.

I have just fired up a Montecristo Petit Tubos to mark the start of the weekend.

Cheerio for now

James.

Welcome. Good choice and a decent first name as well.

Finally I have electricity again! it only took them 30 something hours to get it back on....:eusa_doh:
I think tonight will be a Por Larranaga night!

feltfan · Aug 23, 2008

Tonight was a Felipe Dos Capas. With a bit of Elijah Craig 12.

I have been enjoying the Por Larranaga maduros, though.
Not too tightly rolled, but a flavorful smoke.

The power was out tonight all the way from the freeway to
my house. But I live in the same grid as the hospital, so my
neighborhood is often spared, as it was tonight. Too bad, I
was looking forward to a night with the Victrola. Mind you,
the weather has been perfectly mild- PG&E doesn't need an
excuse for a power cut...

I just finished a Hoya de Monterrey Excalibur 1066 maduro (6.7 x 52). A great end to a long day.

apipeguy · Aug 24, 2008

fl, night smoke brings two bowls of B. Sasieni in a trusty Stanwell. Coffee to sip. Hope your Saturday was beautiful and your Sunday is better! enjoy each puff!

indycop · Aug 25, 2008

Had my last Gurkha from the sampler tonight.

indycop · Aug 26, 2008

Ordered a box of the toro size Por Larranagas today and when I was checking out an offer came up for 10 Don Pepin Cuban Classics for $34. Of course I had to get that offer being it's my favorite cigar!

I think I will order a box of the Maduro Larras next....

feltfan · Aug 26, 2008

Just polished off a 6" maduro with a "shaggy" end, unlabeled, from the
big box at the front of the Sosa store in Miami. A big, oily pleasure
of a smoke. Wish I had picked up a few more. Dominated the flavor
of the Beamish stout I drank with it, but the stout smooths the
palate for all that smoke. Thanks to IC for recommending I visit that store.

apipeguy · Aug 26, 2008

fl, Night smoke brings a bowl of B. Sasieni in a Savinelli. nothing to drink. Hope Monday went well and Tuesday is better! enjoy each puff!
