Had an oliva master blends 3 lastnight. Not impressed. Not much as far as flavor and the burn was aweful. Sat in the humi for over 2 months too. Oh well I still have the O and G.
Decided on an Oliva G maduro (torp) Wednesday night and was not dissappointed. Nice progression in flavors with the last third really hitting the spot.
Yesterday I tried my hand at smoking a turkey for the first time (Thanks Krieg for the help!) and had a Cain Maduro (torp) once the bird was settled in for the smoke. The cigar was fantastic (glad I have another one resting too) and the bird turned out pretty good, though I do have a few tweaks to make for next time.

I like the G also, I have a couple in my humi I got from a bomb. However, the V is still my favorite! Glad to hear your turkey turned out well!
hmmm...thinking about an Alec Bradley Tempus Centuria or...a nica libre! lol
My vote is for the Tempus, but I'm a bit of an AB whore... Every blend like the Prensado and Family Blend they release, I become even more of a whore... When will the madness end.
Finally!!! Third time's the charm. Thanks to Stephen Hannibal for giving me this Nica Libre. First two were complete duds. I love this stick now. Gonna have to get myself some more.

1 out of 3 is a bad ratio...
To be fair, the first two were the rare duds, I think. One tasted like it wasn't aged at all (bitter ammonia) and the second was plugged and the wrapper fell apart when I tried to free up the draw.
Well I ended up smokin 3 tonite. Sat in my bros hottub for 5 hours and smoked a.Ccom red robusto, 5 veg. Gold maduro churchhill, and a kristoff maduro robusto. All awesome sticks. My fav was the Ccom red. Awesome flavor. I was also drinkin rum the whole time so please excuse spelling errors. great night for sure!!!!
Started with a ccom sun grown robusto OTT, good cigar now and I think they're going to be quite tasty with a few months on them, not bad for two bucks a pop. Finished off the day with a Joya de Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo El Martillo, excellent cigar and my preferred size for that line, looking forward to lighting up the corona tomorrow.
