Well, I broke my word about not smoking this week. I couldn't help myself. I smoked a Montecristo Peruvian Buena Fortuna today. I have had them since March 2007. Only have a couple left. Nice and tasty I must say. They have aged well. A lot better than I remember them when I first bought them.
Today was a Gurkha Symphony.. A mild cigars ( by my standards ) but very pleasant. Very smooth throughout and a solid flavor.. woody and nutty. Very good construction and burn. I wish I would have known in advance how good this was, as I smoked the only one I had.

good to hear, I have a 5er sitting..
You will not be disappointed. I will pick up another 5'er as soon as I can. This is one I had for about nine months, damn, I miss it already.
Gmill - Really sorry to hear about your father-in-law. Is it malignant or benign? What's the location? The brain stem region would be a little more difficult. Don't want to overstep, and you don't have to respond.... My thoughts are with you.
Thanks Tumbler, its malignant and in the left frontal lobe, we are very confident in his surgeon and praying for a near as complete recovery as possible...these things are really scary though and no one in my immediate family has ever been through this...thanks for asking
I had a couple of good ones today, this afternoon was a Padron 3000 habano which will always have room in my humi and I just finished up with a Padilla Signature 1932 churchill which will certainly become a staple of my rotation.
Tonight had a Perdomo2 Maduro Epicure, Was a great full strength stick with a nice sweet flavor on top of a good coffee taste. I needed this with a nice glass of bourbon to make a lousy day better ... until I reads the thread about gmill's father in law. No matter how bad a day we have, that's a sobering reality to make anyone realize that their day may not have been so bad after all, because neither I nor my any family member is fighting for their life. Your father in law is in my thoughts and prayers for a successful recovery, and I hope that all goes well. Best wishes to you and your family.
Just got done smoking some Trinidad maduros with a few friends and my boss. It was a great time and a good smoke. Very flavorful and smooth, I may not stock the humi with these, but I will probably keep a couple around.
Smoking my first Ashton VSG i just went and got form B&M not as flavor ful as expected,,, wondering if it is that aging thing again? good draw, nice even burn
I had a Camacho 1962 Curchill taking up way too much room in the humi so i set it on fire. Very satisfying. Nice flavor, raisin and cedar on the finish and mild/medium body. Exceptionally smooth. I was impressed, then i was more impressed when i looked up how much they cost...adding to the shopping list...

Did I send you that one Chief? I haven't smoked the churchills yet, I was wondering how they were since the others have been great.
AAHAA...You sent me that one! I got it from someone but couldnt remember who. It was an awesome smoke, my first one. Very cool down to the 2 1/2" mark and lasted about 1.5 hours. Loved the flavor!
