Vintage 2002. A good smoke when they're on, disturbingly gross when not. Lucky day for me as this one is on!

Similar to Ian's Gran Habano, these are a little shaky with taste, but never had a bad one. Some have been GREAT, and at $2.50 a stick, it's definitely worth the "risk." Listening to an old HA podcast (with Will Cooper, Feb. 1) while wrapping some newly rolled sticks.

Smoking a Oliva Melanio, my 1st. Milder than expected, but enjoyable. Sorry, only pic now would be a nub.

Very nice start to the day Casa Trompeta from our very own Stewmuse. So far so good! Image

That's one of my earliest, and still enjoyed, blends, quik. Dominican seco and lijero, plus Nicaraguan viso as filler, with an Ecuadoran binder and, in this case, a Connecticut wrapper. Hope it finishes well for you!

Yea it was pretty tasty. On the full side which I prefer. . Lots of spice, some cocoa, and espresso, little dusty leathery finish.
