Would you like a Cigar?

Enjoying a Camacho Corojo this fine afternoon

Got an early start to the weekend too - Punch Gran Puro

La Aroma De Cuba Mi Amor

So my last post I had problems with the cap falling off. I rubbed just a little scotch on this cap a few minutes clipping and it worked just fine.

Paired it with a 12 year Glenlivet which turned out not to be the best match. Maybe a sweet bourbon or stout would have been better

The first inch was moderate pepper which is normally not my favorite, but this clearly a premium cigar. The 2nd inch gave way to a bit of a chocolate flavor. The 3rd in and beyond went to all hay / grass which was very surprising for what I believe to be a fairly heavy cigar.

This thing is a very slow burner. 90 minutes in and I was not even halfway through. Heavy smoke but it did need frequent relights (very damp out and raining so that comes into play)

This is def one I would consider having around a stick around to share, but for now I will continue the search for my favorite premium. Don't get me wrong, very clearly uber high quality and I did enjoy it

Smoked a bunch of those. A very good stick, with a 95 rating.
 
5 Vegas Apotheosis Maduro. Limited release. The 5 Vegas line has some good smokes for the budget minded enthusiast. Cigars International offers good deals & discounts occasionally.

My brother bought these from the Cohiba factory at a fraction of the price and they were delicious.

Absolutely one of the finest cigars made! Jealous my friend. Real jealous!

I have smoked quite a few boxes of Partagas D #4’s and they are truly one of the great Cubans.

In fact, I have a dozen or so in the humidor now. :)
 
For some strange reason, I have not been receiving notifications on this thread. This is what I've smoked lately:
 
AVO Nicaraguan, AVO Fogata, Camacho Rum Barrel Aged, and 6 year Barrel Aged, Cuban Hoyo de Monterrey, and my favorite Oliva V Melanio.

I’m spending my Friday evening in Coronaville with a “FLOR DE LAS ANTILLAS - MADURO My Father Cigars” and a glass of Brandy. I dig it.

@Browning325, sir that is one beautiful ashtray. I'm full of good envy. Congrats!!! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::LOL::LOL:

@Brent in Az, yes sir I've been. Being locked up doesn't leave much to do but to sit outside and smoke good cigars. (y)(y)
 
Perfect after lunch cigar after a successful morning turkey hunting...

I have no idea the shipping cost from here to Costa Rica. I can do my research on shipping and get back with you later today.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
