Nothing. It's 35 deg and raining here in Illinois. Gotta love this beautiful spring weather in the midwest. Doesn't look like much is going to change so it might be a while until my next cigar. This blows.
Had a Gurkha Centurian on my ride to work... still tops in my book. That cigar is legend. On the ride home I tried to smoke a Cuba Libre Brute... that cigar is not my speed. Put it down an inch into it.

Same here in Wisconsin, more of a Wintry Mix actually.... No Bueno
How are these?? I have a couple napping. Never had any Pinar del Rios, just picked these up on a whim.
Just a little past the label right now. Not a ton of flavor change, the first inch was not impressive at all. Once you get to the sweetspot, its chocolate..coffee and leather. Spice is non-existant, maybe a tiny bit creeping in toward the end. The one I just puffed on had about two months rest, I'm not BLOWN AWAY but its a solid smoke for sure. Thats my opinion!

Thanks man. I think I'll let mine rest a little while longer. I love the chocolate/coffee/leather that you get from the PA broadleaf, and I can live without much spice, so I still may dig these...only one way to find out ;-)
Started with an Alec Bradley Quadrum 2nd... which immediately presented with the bitterness of crushed aspirin. Gave it 10 minutes and it didn't improve, so I chucked it and went to a Gurkha Legend.
Tonight was an Intenso Churchill with a glass of Laphroaig Quarter Cask! Nice pairing! Full bodied flavorful cigar with a VERY full and flavorful Islay scotch!

Wow, what am I going to do with the last one I got. I leave in a couple of months man. It's just not right, lol.
