I was going to have a 5 Vegas Serie A yesterday on my drive back from the lake but just wasn't up for it. Looking back I wish I had smoked it cause I'm back at work now and know it will be a WHILE before I have another chance to smoke... Oh well, I'll just have to live vicariously through all of you guys!
This evening I enjoyed a El Rey Del Mundo cabinet select salundo - wonderful flavor, ton of white billowing smoke, an awsome 1 1/2 hours of relaxation.....
This afternoon was a Padilla Miami torpedo. In as few words as possible: awesome cigar. The only bad thing about this particular cigar is a large gouge near the head that was suffered a few days ago when I dropped it...I had to adjust my smoking of this one so that my lips would cover the damage and allow me to draw on it...kinda like choking up on a baseball bat I suppose.
I just got a padilla sampler earlier this week with 4 of each of the following Maimi, achilles, habano, obsidian and the 68 I have only had the obsidian this far so I am pretty excited to try the others. With that the 10 gurkha centurians the 10 triple ligeros the pepin sampler and the box of VSGs I am pretty much going to be smoking only cigars I already know I love or ones I am excited to try for a long time and will be able to let the Opus Xs and anejos I have left age for a while without being so tempted to smoke them.
finished up the day with a Camacho SLR Maduro Rothschild...great construction, wasn't in love with the flavor profile, but was pleasant and def medium to full bodied.
Nuthin' for me again tonight. Got another *#$*%(#! cold. I've had more crud in the last month than in the previous few years put together.
hope you get to feelin' better 'Bino. Work was mid 20's and snow till about 3 pm but when it quit i stepped out an lit up a padron 4000, my first, was very good,must pick up some more 3000 and 4000's
I like them all. I think the habano was my favorite, but it's hard to say for sure only having one of each. It is definitely a cigar I will explore some more.
Had the big Black Dragon tonight. It was good till the last inch. At that point I started getting an amonia aftertaste. But the first 7.5 inches were great.
lots of opportunity to smoke today. Had a Verdadero Toro today on a drive for work. Very nice light flavors, but it was a little on the tight side. On the way back I had a DPG Blue Invictos, solid burn and great flavor profile as always. Later this evening I had a Avo Domaine #30. Great smoke with that classic avo smoothness with some awesome flavors. I swear I get something nutmeg-ish when I smoke this cigar.
