Just lit up an El Triunfador original, been box aging since 11/09. This is a truly fantastic cigar imo.

ended up pulling out an AJ Fresh-Rolled, tore the cap off trying to punch it by the light of a dying fire, but it is still smoking great

Ended up smokeing two tonight Had a gold madruo taythegibs sent me to try out after i inquired about them. I like the regular 5v gold better though. Had a consistent flavor all the way through but go a little harsh on the finish ( I might have smoked it a little fast) and had some burn issues.

Started off with a Ramon Bueso ROTT it was great, it really reminds me of a LP, this is going to age really well. I followed up with a Bahia Icon ROTT a decent smoke.

This has to be the most loosely packed cigar I've ever smoked....and I'm less than impressed with it's taste. Ehh probably won't be getting more of these anytime soon.

As probably like many of us, I cant keep up with every edition smoke that is released,, That is why I asked JJ what the SW stood for.. He forwarded a link and I thought it was pretty cool so just passin it on for any others who may have been thinking the same.jj20030:going with a tatuaje reserva sw tonight

Thanks for the info, JJ....I usually like Sumatras but this was nothing like anything I've had before (and not in a good way).jj20030:i liked the sumatra , that has a different wrapper than i seen>> http://www.cigar.com/cigars/viewcigar.asp?brand=885
I picked this up on a whim at the B&M and am thinking maybe it's a couple years old. Looks like this is the old wrapper? ---- http://mattscigar.com/2009/05/28/ambos-mundos-by-tatuaje/ -
the write up says the creme colored band is a habano? >>jgibv:

I smoked the Habano wrapped version with the creme colored band first. Both of the samples I tried were Robustos. The Habano is a Nicaraguan Puro. I have to say, I found this cigar to be nearly unsmokable. It was sour and bitter and very unpleasant. I did my best to try and smoke the whole thing but a little more than halfway through I had to give up on it. This is the first cigar I have tried that is made by Pepin Garcia that I thought was a bad cigar. I find it hard to believe that anything about this smoke is at all related to the Tatuajes I love so much. Maybe it really does need to be aged some but I am not sure how much help that would be to this cigar. To truly age it in any meaningful way means you need to set them down for at least a year, closer to two years probably. Anything less isn’t aging, it is merely acclimation to your humidor. Plus, like I said, who wants to age a $5 economy smoke. The humidor real estate is too valuable and better used aging a box of quality top shelf cigars. As it is today, I have to give this cigar an F.
Next up is the Sumatran which sports the dark red band. Wow what a difference a wrapper can make on a cigar. This was a much better experience. Still not what I would call a good smoke, at least this one was enjoyable enough to smoke the entire cigar. I could see the potential for this one to become a fairly decent smoke if it were allowed to age. It had a spicy bite with an earthy core complimented by notes of cedar and flashes of coffee. There were still occasional hits of sour flavors but it was not nearly as harsh and bitter as the Habano. Because of the potential I can see for this cigar to get at least a little better I can rate this version of the Ambos Mundos as a C.
i rember the sumatra i smoked well and liked it and ordered 5 more -
601 blue maduro. Was expecting it to be too spicy, but its been a very good smoke.
