Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

[bballbaby]

Had a great porterhouse steak cooked to perfection along with abottle of 02 Shaffer Relentless, Pinot Noir, followed by dessert...a Bolivar Robusto.

Fantastic! This is the 3rd Bolivar i've had and dare i say it, but in flavor these taste like the Pepin taste that i love, only on steroids. Next to the Montecristo Petit Edmundo, this is probably my favorite CC.

R&J Churchill (03)

Oh Yes!:drool:

Awesome choice... too bad I smoked my last one:frownno: This might be one of the best smokes I've ever had the pleasure of smoking... I had an opus PL from the new batch that was mighty tasty.

I've been thinking about grabbing a box of those, how do they stand up in flavor against the other Bolivars, like the Royal Coronas or Coronas Gigantes?

Not as strong as the Gigantes and not quite as spicy as the RC. A little more refined complexity than the other two. Of the three I prefer the BBF, had one this morning with the paper and coffee.

Agreed. . .sogon, the BBF is among my all-time favorites and probably makes the list of most cigar smokers. It is truly a great, classic smoke.

I had a Gigante planned but I'm in Wilmington NC and it's damn near 100 degrees and 200% humidity. I switchin to a PLPC.

Changed plans

I had a Torano Noventa 90 toro sized.

Mitch included this bad boy in the prize winnings from a contest I won. I have been very impressed with Torano cigars as of late. First was the Exodus 1959 2 sizes, just a great early day smoke, Now this sucker that had my wife asking for another draw. A lot of cedar and coffe flavors through out the stick. I will look for these again.

 

[bballbaby]

Oooh, yeah, Noventa La Esperanza (toro)

I've got one left and it's been a long while since i've had one. It's been calling my name for quite some time, but i just haven't reached for it yet. Maybe tongiht...i just need to set aside an hour and half to smoke the dang thing.

 

[dpricenator]

yep took me an hour and 45 min to finish it. But man that was a great smoke.

 

[bballbaby]

Guess i'll have to force myself to sit outside til 11 pm. Usually like to start packing in the day at about 1030 or so...damn i'm gettin old!

 

[Frank N]

I had an Epi 1 on the way into work, a boli PC on the ride to Sheep's house and a Boli RC after dinner. It was a nice night for June in Texas sitting on the patio. Probably mid 70's.

 

[Halon]

Met up with Mitchell from C.Gars Ltd. and had a Ramon Allones Belicoso and a Cohiba Sublimes.

Enjoyed a PAM 64 tonight. Corona sized. Haven't had one in a really long time. THoroughly enjoyed it. This one had about 8 months of age on it. I can see these getting really good with age. Conned the wife into a few puffs by telling her to taste the chocolate milk. She didnt' think it was funny. I did.

You?
