It was an 858 Sungrown, indeed. All of the cigars in the box I own have smoked pretty quickly, usually about 50 minutes or so, but this one was, well, smokin!Kip wrote:Guessing from the size, it looks like a SunGrown 858 to me....and the rapidity of the described burn is insane!

Did the construction impact you to the point where you don't feel like you could judge fairly or did you develop an idea of what all the fuss is about?

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

Used to love the Pepin Cuban Classic. Once my last couple are gone, that might be it for them...

Enjoying the 50 degree sunshine with a poor boy special. A bmf nic bound charoot from stew and a cheap brew called Rockdale that I got at Wal-Mart. Actually not terrible for what it is. Had a sweetness to it. This is the light I got the reg in the fridge.

I imagine it's some of both, but I do recall their being a pretty sharp divide a few years and even though I've kept trying them, the original enjoyment has certainly not returned.kurtdesign1 wrote:You or the cigar changing?Stewmuse wrote:Used to love the Pepin Cuban Classic.
