I smoke cigars for almost 20 years now and the last 8 or 9 years only Cubans... Still didn't smoke all Cuban brands yet
Ever been visiting Cuba?
indycop said:Last night I had half of a La Perla Habana, I have never heard of it before seeing it in the Aromas cigar bar by my house.
It was fairly dry but with an extremely hard draw. I was at work so I stuck a toothpick in it to try and open it up a little. It took it a couple of inches before I could draw from it without great effort. This may or may not be because of where I bought it from. Their cigars have not been right and I wonder if they will stay in business. shakeshead
Anyway as I just started to get a little flavor from it I had to let it go. I was smoking it at work while lurking about on the ATV. I was hidden by the treeline of a parking lot trying to enjoy a cigar while watching for activity. I finally saw someone hiding a small backpack under a car and as he was making his exit caught up with him on the 4wheeler. Turns out his pack contained a bong and drugs so while dealing with him and trying to keep a cigar with a hard draw going, the cigar lost out.

You might want to look into some other minutos, Montecristo #5,
Ramon Allones Small Club Corona, Trinidad Reyes, and the San Cristobal
De La Habana El Principe.
Keep Smoking!

Oh, and I was freezing my tush off sitting outside last night and the others were all smoking cigarettes *yucky*, so I probably puffed away a little faster than I should have. I promise to slow down next time, as it was definately well tasting and especialy seeing cigars are certainly not reasonably priced here in Oz!
indycop said:Had one of the few remaining Gurkhas from the symphony sampler I got a little while back. A little time in the humidor did it good.
They were not bad out of the box, just better now but those Felipes on the other hand....jamespowers said:You would think that, for the price, they would be decent right out of the box.
Nothing last night. I had some Clontarf if that helps though. :cheers1:

Unless they improve I would say I got less than what I paid for. But the Por Larranagas will be here Monday.jamespowers said:One could say you got what you paid for with those Felipes then?
The R & J experience kind of made me cigar shy. That menthol taste in a cigar just was not very appealing. :eusa_doh: I hope they age well because they sure don't come from the factory ready to go. :eusa_doh:

Darn!
Mine are coming from that exotic little brown truck.loljamespowers said:WHAT!? Mine won't be here until the day after and I ordered way before you! Something is screwy here. You must have slipped them something extra or used that blue uniform.
At least those are highly rated. Felipe Dogrocket---not so much. [huh]
I have only tried the Curly head and the Reserva, I think it is? And of course the Opus X.Eduard said:
JP, did your cigars ever arrive? Mine sure haven't.jamespowers said:Come to think of it, I took advantage of the three cigar Montecristo Platinum deal on the Altadis USA site for $9.99. 1 Habana #2 (52 x 6 1/8) 1 Toro (50 x 6) and 1 Robusto (50 x 5). (www.montecristoradio.com) The deal is supposed to ended October 31, 2008. One per household. Fortunately, I have three addresses to use.
I missed the free cigar offer they had last month---darn it!
The 6-8 week wait isn't going to kill me. I still have plenty of Monte No.2 to go through.
Here's hoping.indycop said:
At least I know I like Por Larranaga and they will be here Monday.feltfan said:
