    Not to get too far ahead, but I'm interested in giving this game another try after ejenne gives it a go.

    He will be receiving his mystery cigars next week. Due to his location (afghanistan) it may take a bit longer than normal. PM him and let him know you what to be his mystery mooch!

    Wow, very cool. Thanks so much for this mystery cigar selection. It was really interesting to try them out and review them without knowing what they were. Three cigars, very different, and all very good.

    Got my pack from Phil today, hopefully I can get to cigar A here in a little bit. I smelled it as soon as they got here and it smells delicious! I can't wait!
  • ejenne87ejenne87 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,921
    So, cigar A was super delicious. It was pretty powerful, dark and oily, and spicy. The burn and draw were flawless. I am rather stumped though as to what cigar this one is. I want to say MoW Ruination but they don't come in the size I smoked. It has been a long time since I have had one of these but I have to guess: CAO MX2...?

    SO close! It was the CAO LX2. Spot on with the review - pretty powerful cigar, good spice, and I've always had great draw and burn with this one. Definitely in my top ten favs.

    That was the first one of those I have had. I told myself that is had to be a ligero if it wasnt the MoW because it was so strong and spicy but the wrapper seemed too dark. I guess I should have taken a better look at it in the light. Great smoke though, I certainly will be getting more.

    So I am pretty sure I was sent a chocolate bar instead of a cigar. This thing was all chocolate all the way. It was a pretty decent smoke, I really liked it. I am not very sure what this one is. I am going to have to guess La Vieja Habana. It has been quite a while since I have hadone of these but I kinda remember it being chocolatey and medium bodied. It definately tasted like an infused cigar.
  • TatuajeVITatuajeVI Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 2,378
    Wow, really? Interesting. That one was a Padilla Miami. Definitely not infused, but it definitely has a cocoa/chocolate flavor to it! Though not as pronounced normally.
  • ejenne87ejenne87 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,921
    I couldn't have been farther off haha! I have only had one of the Padilla's, but it was way too dry or just not old enough. Cigar C tomorrow!!

    According to my spreadsheet, that one had been in the humidor since July, so it was rested well by the time I sent it out. Love that cigar.
  • ejenne87ejenne87 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,921
    So I def. feel like a bit of an idiot. I just finished cigar "C" and I am pretty sure this one is a La Vieja Habana haha.

    hahaI guess my nose is more stuffed thatn I thought. I have been having sinus trouble so apparently everything tastes like LVH haha. I will have to try to clear myself out with a nice MoW Ruination tonight i guess.

    I got my cigars from ejenne so I'll start with these probably tomorrow, and then proceed from there.

    Mystery Cigar 'A'- Very big stogie, easily a 52 ring gauge, if not 54, very nice, toothy wrapper. It smokes like a dominican cigar, very sweet, and it has that cameroon twang to it. If I had to make a guess, I'd go with an Indian Tabac Cameroon Legend.
  • ejenne87ejenne87 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,921
    Cigar A was a Rocky Patel Royal Vintage. I have never had one so I can't really comment haha. I have some in the humi though.
  • betasynnbetasynn Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,249
    I knew it tasted familiar! Alrighty, well, at least the maker is the same! Tomorrow we'll see how I do on cigar B! Also, who is going to be my mooch?
  • alienmisprintalienmisprint Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 3,961
    I haven't done this in a while, I'll be your mystery mooch Beta!
  • betasynnbetasynn Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,249
    Ah yes, I always love sending stuff to you. I'll throw in some La Bonitas if you want as well, if you want. I need your new address, though!

    The purple labels would be awesome, I greatly appreciate it ;). PM incoming with the new addy.

    Alright, Evan. This was a damn good cigar. The burn was a little wacky, but the flavor was excellent. Lots of pepper, a subtle cinnamonny sweetness, really enjoyable. It looked a little funky, so it was hard for me to come up with a guess, but I'll wager it's a 5 Vegas Limitada of some kind. Tasted like a DPG anyhow, I'm actually hoping it's something else, something affordable, since I want to buy another (or five.) I sat and nubbed this one even though it was 42 degrees and windy, and I'd had the foresight to go outside wearing a t-shirt and shorts.
