Never had the Robusto but this Torp is the fist i have had since buying them back in 08..
Got loads better with time even tho they were a good smoke from the start. Loverly creamy smoke and very mellow now..

Nice draw and huge smoke output, my room is full of smoke, hope neighbours don't call fire brigade..
Nicotine rush at 2/5 in, a little light headed right now!!
Nice burn, didn't had to retouch it.
The whole stick finished in 4 big ash chunks, ash was a bit flaky.
Smooth and creamy.... overall I am inpressed!!

What are Rocky Patel cigars like? Did anyone get to the Rocky Patel cigars event at J J Fox? If so, how did it go?

This nice weather is costing me a bomb in cigars and beverages, but it's such a pleasure

Wait for your first inhale.
Only time in my life was with a maduro so it wasn't too harsh. But fuck my lungs. Hurt for 5 hours straight..........

Same as last night here. Waxy on the lips, a bit rough in the taste department here and there. This was improved with the ol' flamb? purge from time to time. Too young.

Last third was pokey, strong tabaccy but not offensive.

Got to the beach & was in Aberdeen for lunch time.Weather offshore had been gorgous but ABZ was grey clouds & looking like rain. 'It'll clear in the afternnon said the locals' but it did't look likely. However when I came out of the pub, low & behind if had indeed turned around. I headed across the road to the Academy & had a Hoyo Epicure Especial from 2011, with few Stellas. Wasn't overly impressed with these when they first came out this this was a gem & I believe agift, NSSanta? If so cheers Arf.
After a steak in the evening, I had a typically rustic looking Pary Con S; No3, one I brought back from Cuba couple of yrs ago. This is a pretty small cigar to round off an evening emeal but as I had already had the Hoyo I didn't want to over do it (gastroscopy on Mon), it was just fine.Got a female comment 'that lovely smell reminds me of Christmas', seems father/grandfather must have enjoyed a stogie on Christas day in her household.
Wonderful relaxing afternoon & evening after a real busy trip. I can count the number of days where the weather has been this good when I have been in ABZ over the last few yrs on one hand. The bars along this stretch have improved their outdoor smoking facitilies too. Very pleasent.
