Re: Cigar O' the Day numero cuatro....
Big day. Got some "rustic" - home made - cigars from a colmado in the mountains. I'll let you know how that goes if I survive.
Going to an Águilas (Dominican baseball team) game tonight. I understand you can even have a cigar in the stadium....

I rolled a little over 200 test blend cigars this year across 63 different combinations. I'm down to my final 8-10 test cigars. Some were quite good, most pretty average, and a few sucked. This is one is... fine. But not a keeper.

Oh, I know all about "rustic" looking cigars. Fortunately, they sometimes can still smoke pretty darn well!Kip wrote:Big day. Got some "rustic" - home made - cigars from a colmado in the mountains. I'll let you know how that goes if I survive.

Magnificently blended Connecticut but you definitely still taste it. Edges are cut off of the crispness and its decidedly Padron. Mild/Med, fast burning (maybe an hour & 10 for me). Dare I say buttery flavor? Bold soft flavors. Not understated. Not my favorite but very good. I think 46x6" roughly.

Tonights Delight.
H Upmann Noella re-release
These are my first Noella. I had heard so much about those infamous '09's, but never got ahold of a jar. Here we are a few years after the re-release; let's see if they are worth putting on the list for the November and January trips.

These were *literally* 5¢ cigars. Well, 2 peso cigars, bur that's about 5 cents....I'm not exactly holding out hope of finding a new favorite.Stewmuse wrote:Oh, I know all about "rustic" looking cigars.

.05??? How does one do that? Are processed tobacco leaves just raining down from the sky in the DR? I guess these really would be sun grown leaves.Kip wrote:These were *literally* 5¢ cigars.
