JL2 with a Stella. Wasn't sure about this stick when I fired it up, tasted a bit off, but an inch in and it started to feel familiar Not the best one I've had though.

Smoked a cigar gifted me by ACMCC tonight, a Vegueros Esp. No.2

A very pleasant cigar that warmed up into a really flavourful smoke...

Thanks AC...

Cheers, HabanoSy

If you got it, flaunt it!

Por Larranaga Magnifico - a cigar that lives up to it's name! My first try of these and want some more! I got this one from the LCDH Teddington when they were first released and couldn't help myself this evening. Not a strong cigar but the flavours were to die for. A mild hint of coffee with cream at the start, going into leather and marshmallows then an almost black cherry vibe at the half way point. The second half was toasty (wholemeal) with a waxy walnut profile, I removed the bands when it was time and burnt my fingers on the nub

Hello, my name is BJ, BJCoro, and I aways insist on marshmallows with my leather, but that's just me.

My cigar day started with a Don Kiki White Label Robusto. I enjoyed this cigar no end and smoked it nearly to the end.

Next came my Cigar Club Jose Piedra Cazadores. I must stop smoking cigars that have just arrived. Bad mistake (yet again) as I did not enjoy it. It was hard to draw - softened in the middle and tasted as an Havana should, then blocked completely two and a half inches from the end.

Last was a Cuban Crafters Don Quijote Torpedo. These have now settled in my humidor. I got two 25 bundles of these $49.99 as "upgrade" replacements for other cheaper cigars I had ordered which were out of stock. So I paid $39.99 a bundle. What a good buy! They are superb! Splendid smoke. Near perfect burn all the way down. Perfect easy draw. Loads of smoke. Fine white ash and a good 1 hour smoketime. Peppery taste upon lighting, smooth spicey taste and near the middle a whack of distinctive, unmistakable chocolate, moving on to a stringent but pleasant strong smoke in the last couple of inches.

While out on a walk today I bumped into this old chap of about 70 years old enjoying a Cohiba Esplendidos. Got chatting to him and he told me he has 2 cigars a day for the past 45 years. His current sticks are the Esplendidos and everybody's favourite SD4. Fantastic bloke, hope to see him again.

Hey Paulie, you got me to thinking...have you ever met a cigar smoker you didn't like? See new thread at http://www.ukcigarforums.com/showthr...8669#post28669
