Oof. A full stomach from a big, German-style meal, and now i need a bold cigar. Caldwell Eastern Standard. This will do. It has a great retrohale, too.

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

-Blind tasting herf stick #1
This is the same stick I gave to Kip and Kurt Jan of '17 for the unbanded on the show, so I cannot disclose what it is. Was a fun time smoming these and hearing reactions. Mqybe one day the hosts of this show will get to the unbanded ....... one year......

A friend gifted this to me at the herf, so I finished with it. Great cigar. Would smoke again for sure.

This is one of my desert island 3 cigars I would select. Just right for my palate....
-Tat Noella Reserva 2013 Re-release
My last of the singles. Seeing if I should open the box I have sealed now. Meh, it was ok. A lot of sweetness, and smooth tobacco, but not a ton of much else.
-Upmann Connie 1 Oct '15
This was a first from the box. I am very happy already, if this is what the rest of the box is working with. Great cigar for being so young. Good enough to nub the shit out of it !

Cuban Robaina torpedo. A decent, but not outstanding, cigar. Starts off fairly mild and builds a little, but never becomes strong or harsh. Like the Cohiba from a few days ago, the retrohale is more pleasing/interesting than just mouth blowing.

With age, they mellow out a bit and become more smooth. This is the aging process that collectors look for. You dont have the issues with biting, newer tobacco.Stewmuse wrote:Cuban Robaina torpedo.

Another night-time session in the garage with trumpet, movie stuffs, and a cigar. This time a Casa de William (Kip's cohort in the DR who has cigars made for his small home store. Pretty good, stronger than most Dominican cigars I've had. Definitely worth the $2.00 price tag.

Re: Cigarro del dia - numero siete
Not to be a horn tooter (well, except when mine is actually on my face), but of the three cigars i started with the past three nights, mine is the clear-cut winner. The Nestor Miranda Dominicano is a pretty tasteless dog rocket, the Fuente corona was decent but slow in developing, and my Bahia is really darn good. Just sayin...

Re: Cigarro del dia - numero siete
I'm surprised there was anything left in that Fuente. It looks like a Don Carlos #3....which is great. However, it has the old band. That puts it pre-2011. Being a milder cigar to begin with, they can definitely go flat after 7 years.
