Drew Estate ACID Extra Ordinary Larry
From my very first cigar purchase, a couple of the ACID collector tins...
Haven't tried this one yet, but it's a beast!
Edit:
Okay, that one was not for me!
Made it about a third of the way through and called it quits. Burn was sub-par, but more than anything the flavor (to me) was sickening. I've enjoyed some of the other ACID line but this one is not in my favor. I guess I'll try something more traditional later today...

yesterday had a coronado, which was decent but didn't quite scratch the itch:
... and a don xavier, a 18yr old boom-era canary island cigar, gifted from my boss. tasted like an aged-out macanudo, but with enough citrus notes to keep me interested. old and obscure ain't always a winner:
today rocked a LP9 tube. a friend i met at a shop said "i lost the lid a ways back, you want it?". uh, yeah?!? many thanks on this one!

So I smoked this cigar. I do not know what it is so can someone ID it for me. I did not think I was going to enjoy it through the first 1/4 of it as it was heavily spicy/peppery. It ended up telling a great complex story. From 2/4 through 3/4 it changed to a sweeter tobacco taste almost like a creamy mexican hot chocolate with a shot of espresso and with a dash of pepper and shaved tobacco. Than in the last 1/4 it moved to a coffee with sweet cream smoke taste. Oh man this cigar was one of the most complex and amazing journey smokes I have had. PLEASE if you know what it is let me know. I nubbed it hard as well.
Man o war Puro ?? If it had a pigtail I think that's it !So I smoked this cigar. I do not know what it is so can someone ID it for me.

Yes it had a small pigtail on it. I enjoyed it. Packed a punch as I am now feeling the nicotine doing its work. Looked up Man O War Puro on google and looks like you hit it correctly! THANKS! And I must say cigars internationals description of it is spot on. This little cigar truly does send the senses into overload.Man o war Puro ??

Good cigar would like to keep 1-2 in the humi. Not an everyday type of smoke though.

It's Man O' War Puro Authentico, either the Habano or Maduro, but looks to me to be the Habano.
Quite cost effective, box of 10 can be had for under $35 if you look around...
Just bought a box of each myself a couple weeks ago, excited to try them out!
Here's a review from the Maduro:
