I smoked the one you sent me the other day. It was glorious until the tangy, habano flavor took over. The brown sugar & tobacco flavor was still in the background but that "generic" (for lack of a better descriptor) habano characteristic was what came through in spades. I can see the beauty in these and think there was some sort of transition or travel induced rapture that came into play here.

I've been up and down on these La Aurora 1492s, but this size is probably my favorite.

Not being a console gamer I don't really know that I'm understanding fully. Is Revolution able to play multiple versions of the game? Now you can play III again?
Revolution was a stripped down simplified version of Civ that could be "quick played" I mean it still took hours, just not days. It is super fun and easy and while it started as a console game I am pretty sure one can find it for PC.
Bingo. I spent many hours playing through this when it came out several years ago. I'm renewed in my enjoyment of it....and I'll definitely take you up on the offer DC (once I get reacquainted with the game)

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace. - Raul Julia

Timing worked out that General sent some samples of the new Partagas Heritage at the same time my Mom was coming down, so I fired one up this morning. I have to say it's pretty good so far. Clean on the palate, great work coffee, well made. The coffee probably influences this, but lots of cedar and nuts.
