Had an RP Fusion for breakfast today. It had a couple of burn issues, as have all Fusions I've smoked..I only smoked it because it's named after my favorite, most awesome, excellent, razor blade made by Gillette....man that five bladed razor is the S.
The big brown truck brought my box of 5 Vegas Relics today so I had to light one up right away. They've got another winner here... hearty, flavorful, and lots of smoke. Pretty cool box, too. These are gonna be really hard to share.

I was wondering about those. I love the Gold, Miami, Classic, and A, so I imagine I would dig the relic as well. I had a Miami this morning, what a great way to start the day.
Just finished a Gurkha Symphony, and subsequently added another stick to my favorites list.
hey alien, I don't hear much talk about the symphony around here, but that is one of my new favorites too. Everything about it is top notch. Damn thing is mighty tasty for a low price. I need to, as jozer says, go on a hunt.
Awww, yeah. Had myself a La Cuna 85 toro, this evening. The burn on this one was just a tad off, but it kept self-correcting. And the flavor. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout.
Had a DPG JJ last night. It was pretty tasty. I had to put it down when I got to the gig and picked it back up on the way home. Not as good on the second light and I got some tar. It was a torpedo and a fairly easy draw so I was surprised to see any tar. I cut a little more of the end off and I ended up cracking the whole wrapper. Only had about 1 1/2 - 2 inches left so I didn't feel bad.
Just got done with a CAO MX2. I have to admit I was a little stand-offish about this cigar. I didn't really care for the CAO VR and I was afraid it was going to be alot like it. But I was wrong, man this is a good stick. It is my favorite Maduro now, I like it more than the Onyx or 5 Vegas A. Awesome reccomendation Maddy, thank you so much for turning me on to this cigar.
Well I haven't had anything the past couple nights but I did smoke a couple on Sunday. First one I smoked was a Royal Brigade courtesy of the great Duty. And he is pretty great for hooking me up with a couple of these! Awesome smoke! Great flavor all the way through! The wrapper on it started to come apart about half way through but I was able to hold onto it and finish it. After that I had my first 601. It was the Gree Ocuro and WOW! That was a great smoke! It had one of the strongest cedar flavors of any cigar I've ever had. Anyone else experience that with this one?
Hey - don't know if you are interested, but I have a couple of MX2's and just don't like them. Let me know if you want to make a trade and we can figure something out.
I've never tried the gold, but I have one in the humidor. Box pressed (does the gold only come box pressed?) I'll try it this weekend.
I might like the Silver so much because it was the first cigar I ever smoked. I just love it.
I had an Ancient Warrior...nothing special. Burned very good, but was just a little to tight of a draw for my liking.
really, well that's a bummer. what taste did the thing have? I'm really on the fence about ordering a 5er.
It had an occasional hint of coffee which was nice, but halfway thru it completely changed to a very strong taste and an unpleasant aftertaste which only lasted for a few minutes. It wasted as creamy as I hoped...def not my favorite Brazilian wrapper.
