Re: Cigarro del dia - numero cinco
I've said similar things in the past about this cigar, but in my experience, this is the best cigar on the market under $15, and maybe more. And it costs under half that. This the cigar I want for Father's Day!

Re: Cigarro del dia - numero cinco
I agree about that New World. Whenever Tampa Humidor would run their sales, I used to get them for less than $4, tax included. Loved 'em
My special celebratory Father's Day cigar is another story so far, unfortunately. I grabbed this Quesada Reserva as a splurge for today, and I'm radically underwhelmed in these early minutes. It tastes dusty, like some of the Mom n Pop operations' cigars that use improperly handled tobacco. This purportedly has some special 20 year old leaf, so it's probably just my old Billy-goat palate.

Here's my special smoke for the day. Needed something strong for #3, and this is nailing my palate right now! The hype is worth it IMHO.

Re: Cigarro del dia - numero cinco
OK, so final notes on the Quesada. It improved greatly by the end of the first inch. Nonetheless, I don't think I'd buy again. I got 2, and will reserve final judgment until after the second...but even with the improvement, nothing made this a special cigar in practice. Theory? Sure. Pricing? I guess. Practice? Not to me.

Exactly halfway through the box of these that I bought at the La Aurora factory gift store last January. In another 6 months I should be finished with it and, gee, I guess I'll have make a return trip to replace it! Just hope life allows that to happen!

Tatuaje Black, watching a welcome storm roll in. It's been the hottest week since we've been here, and this storm has kicked a solid 20 degrees off. Loving it.

Another winner from Warped. @Craig, the Aganorsa tobacco in this is toned down a lot, highly recommend it!

Breaking this cold that I have with an Abe Flores Reserva Corojo Half Corona. Nice cigar to get me back into the swing of things, me thinks...

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
