    I just spent 2 1/2 hours with a massive Montecristo Media Noche churchill. Excellent construction, good flavor and aroma, but this cigar got boring after the first hour and a half or so. I look forward to smoking the torpedos I have in my humidor, but won't go out of my way to get another one in this size.
    Scrambler... I love to smoke cigars, but after an hour and a half what do you expect.. I'd get bored if Urbi's girlfriend Do- Me- More was there that long, smoking with me..All thing in moderation. 2 1/2 hours is too long.

    Working on a Nub Cameroon that Maddy sent me from his 2000 posts contest... MUCH better experience than the last one I had which literally exploded and had the wrapper fall off...

    I dunno, though. I mean, that Media Noche churchill is truly gargantuan, but I managed to amuse myself for the duration. Of course, I'm easily amused.

    The other night Water Pillows had one of those "headaches" and I had to do the same thing.

    This Nub is freaking great.. I'm literally burning the *** out of my fingers and it STILL hasn't got bitter... There's less than an inch left and STILL going!!!

    The difference being that I have only the vaguest recollection of water pillows.

    Alright, Joz, you talked me into it. I'm out for a Regent until further notice.

    I just lit up a Mi Dominicana robusto. ... I can already tell it's gonna be pretty strong.
    I had to put it down with more than 1/3 of it left, that thing set me buzzing pretty good.

    Gotta love a good nUBstand.

    That's what she said.

    Just finished up with a La Aurora Barrel Aged robusto. This is a pretty good cigar, though it definitely needs some time on it to smooth out some of the harsh and bitter notes I noticed. I'm looking forward to this with some time on it, see what a few months does for it.

    After all the recent talk of the Java's I decided to break one out this evening.... Toro size... Once again just a great smoke... Great sweetness from the Maduro wrapper and infusion of coffee, but as I've stated time and time again, the flavors just blend so well together the compliment rather than detract... One of the few flavoreds I'll actually smoke!

    Just finished up smoking a 5 Vegas in 5.5" 50 ring size that has been chilling in the humi for about 2 months. Was great as usual, but I did get a new flavor about an inch into the cigar. I could swear it tasted like buttered toast along with some nice leather notes. I have 2 left from the 5 pack I bought and I think I'm going to let them sit for another few months before I smoke em again to see what other flavors develop.

    Today was a CAO CX2 with about six months on it.. This was great.. Anyone who has had one will agree.. Those who have not, will concur once they have smoked this beauty. A bit of advice, buy them two at a time..you will want to keep these on hand.

    Help me decide what I'm smoking. I went to a B&M near my house I hadn't previously known of. Got some Hemingways that I'm quite excited about. Also some Aston VSGs, which I've never had. Also got RP vintage 1992 and decade, oliva g, v, nub 464 cameroon and habano, and so on and so forth.

    It sounds like you will soon be smoking some fine cigars. I have tried them all and everyone is a winner !

    Good to know, I'm going to order some of these in the near future.. I've been eying them for a while..

    Wow, Luko... that is an amazing purchase! I love the RP '92, and the Nub Cameroon.... I am dying to try the VSG, because with the EcSu wrapper, I think I'll love it. My recommendation is he RP '92. That's a special stick, and it's a Friday night. The Hemingway is something you want to sit on and wait for the perfect night/conditions. It requires a lot of attention from a flavor/taste standpoint. The Nubs are also complex, but at that price point, they're a glorious smoke anytime. I've never had an Oliva G, but I've got one resting at the moment. I understand that the V is very strong. I almost picked up a Lancero today at the B&M, but I got sidetracked into some interesting new sticks (Casa Magna, anyone?).

    Well if that's a tag team between Nestor Plasencia and Manolo, it can't be bad.
