Ave Maria corona from the Aj corona sampler a few months ago.
Curious on your thoughts about this stick Russ, I have a few sitting that I'm about ready to get into.
I've only had the crusader, the knights templar, and now this corona, so I don't have a lot of experience with the line. I get a lot of complexity in both flavor and aroma with this one. Leather, spice, sweetness. I haven't picked it apart too much other than just noting the obvious flavors, but I really like it so far. It's nice to see something from AJ, and Nicaragua, that isn't a super full bodied pepper bomb. Not that those aren't nice once in a while...

Excellent! I'm going to have to clear out the Puro Authenico from my memory before I smoke this
Saturday on the way home from my g/fs apartment I had a Nica Libre. It was way to moist and mushy but that didn't affect the burn too much. However, the exhale of smoke was bitter. The inhale wasn't. I smoked something Sunday morning but I can't remember what it was. I did smoke a Gurkha Blue Steel Perfecto Sunday night and it was ok. Lately when I have been smoking perfectos it takes a lot to get some decent smoke out.
Yesterday I smoked a 3 Siglos on the way to the parade. This one had some cracks near the foot and a big crack down the head about an inch or more. The burn was affected but more along the lines of flaking. Other than that it was good. And last night I smoked my last Gurkha Grand Age. This one had almost 3 years on it. Got it either in July or August 2008. The draw was very tight! Almost no Cognac taste. The burn was great though. I was expecting more since I have had this cigar before but it fell pretty flat.
To celebrate becoming legally married, although my official wedding day isn't until July 2nd I smoked a couple tonight:
CAO Brazilia (my personal favorite)
and a 5 Vegas triple A
lol, first one , think i needed more rest though its ok, im going to try to start aging some but with trades bombings etc its kinda hard, but im going to get one of my humis and put some in it to start but everytime i think i may die tomorrow i pick out a primo,lol , i do want to try an 03 and 06 first though,lol
