having a skull and bones from 415 kevin. just lit this sucker up and it's making my tongue numb for some reason haha
I heard that happens when you draw from the lit end.
did i say tongue? i meant bunhole
Damn...made ya crap that fast huh?
hahah. si. speaking of this cigar. horrendous tunneling issues. i think for every other viaje I smoke, I get ridiculous burn issues. annoying
The super shot is amazing, otherwise viaje is over priced average crap IMO
i'm starting to see that. that's unfortunate... I have a super shot 12g from robbyras that I'll light up soon. doesn't really matter to me though. even if I like it, I need to find the darn things.
. LOL! Is that girl in the background marveling at your cigar or taking a breath?
Shes drowning but Rob doesnt want his cigar to get wet.
Ah, a time where man is faced with a dilemma of the value of human life, versus a quality smoke. I think we can all agree that the choice here is very obvious.
So how was the smoke?
The stick smoked and tasted great but needed some aging on it. It was like smoking a sponge, maybe I should've use it as a lifesaver and save the drowning girl in the picture. I got it at the B&M down the street from where I staying in North Conway. Think I might get another to bring home and age. Overall I liked the taste and will try again

They are crazy HTF.... I gave all but two of mine away they were so good...now I have one left and wish I had more...
AB Tempus that Mr. MVW67 sent me a little while back.
Mike, thanks for hooking me up and giving me the opportunity to smoke this cigar.
It was good - but I think the Black Market is still my fav AB stick. The flavor profile of the Tempus was completely different from the BM and I think the Tempus just didn't have the flavors I was looking for tonight. I got another Tempus in the humi (I think) and will be giving this cigar another shot somewhere down the road.
Don't get me wrong though, the Tempus is a very solid cigar, great construction & burn, and flavorful throughout. If y'all haven't smoked one of these yet, try it - it's worth a shot.
a kinky Friedman... so there's a little spice and not much else.
Gray, which Kinky is that?
The "Texas Jewboy!" I'm really not impressed, the wrapper was super spicy prelight , but its pretty much a bland flavorless smoke... I've had it resting a while and its just disappointing. Not much smoke, no good flavors. Just tastes watered down. Sad. Have you had any of these?

Haven't had the Texas Jewboy but I picked up a box of the Lone Star No. 4s last fall and have gone through quite a few of them. They've all been consitent but nothing over the top that "blew me away." IMHO they're a good budget stick/yard 'gar. At $2-3 a piece they're good for the price and I'd put them in line with the La Perla Habana Classic.
But next time I'm looking for a "budget cigar" I'll probably try something Gran Habano or look for other cigars in that price range. They're not bad, but I don't know if I'd buy another box of them since there's so many other "budget sticks" out there.
Have you tried any of his other cigars? If not, PM me your addy and I'll send you a few Lone Stars and you can tell me what you think.
