Would you like a Cigar?

Oh wow, you beat me to it. Where did you find them at? I’d like to order some. Thanks. (y)
 
Smoking a new Oliva Black Swan by Jaime Rodriguez. A friend who I got into smoking cigars surprised me today with this beauty. I’ll let you know what I think, but so far so good, like all Olivas (y)

Here is the verdict. If you like Olivas V Melanios and Oliva V, you will like this cigar. I believe it’s a Med blend, and sits between the two Olivas mentioned above, it’s a very smooth cigar, and I believe better and less harsh than the Oliva Vs. Burned very well and evenly, with hints of sweet and a bit nutty with lots of heavy smoke. (y) :LOL:
 
I agree with your assessment Oscar. IMO I found it to be very bold, dark, smoky and tasteful. The Toro was a nice long burn, and I thought the first 2/3rds were more flavorful than the last 1/3, which was good, but with more spice and less sweet. Another great smoke from Oliva, and glad I got a box to enjoy!

It's the small things in life that make the journey worth it... limited edition does it for me every time!

A thing of beauty for sure! I have a small tear forming in my eye. Combination of joy for you and jealousy!

As I posted some of our Carruthers group recently took the Harry Selby up to Kariba for an outing. It was wonderful to get out in the bush and enjoy a cigar in the evening. Somehow a half box of good Monte Cristo's got left behind when we packed up, I can just imagine the revelry in the staff compound that evening.
 
Ouch, I hope they know what they have :unsure:
 
I hope they at least smoke them. :)
 
Man, I really like these Oliva Black Swan cigars, they are going to be on my favorite list, just like the Melanios. :ROFLMAO:

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
