Had to start a thread with Drac and Boris in the name for my own selfish ambitions. But seriously there have been some really good smokes released lately that havent gotten any play on here. What do you guys think?
I smoked one of the My father Le Bijou's the other day over at Jack Swartz, and all I can say is that is one fine cigar. It was so creamy and delicious. In my opinion it is the best thing Pepin has done since the Padilla 1932's. They beat the sox off the regular my father line.
Davidoff colorado claro- every few years the leaves are a little darker and they release a colorado claro boxed cigars, and these are supposed to be quite a treat. I believe the last time they were released was like in 01, so its been a while. Dont know how long these will be around if this story is true. Got some on the way
The Perez Carillo cigar wasnt bad either. While I thought it lacked a lot of the complexities I personally enjoy, I could see how others would really dig this smoke. From what I heard it was the hit of the RTDA trade show this year
Ashtons san crisobal del sol series is out, and in my opinion still is lacking in that certain je ne se quois, or however the heck you spell it. An over-rated brand, that never lived up to its expectations. i still hope that someday pepin will tweak and make it more smokeable!
Havent had the Padrons, but Ive heard good thins. After a disappointing 80th maduro, I have lower expectations for this one, but have one in each wrapper on the way, so we shall see if they can live up to their predecessors... or at least most of them
What else have you guys thought. What else is good out there right now that is new. What do you think of the 08 CC stock, I think the ERDM's, party's and Cohibas from this year have all been nothing short of superb. if someone mentions the drac or boris in this thread I might Sh!T a brick. Not that Im not into them I just dont want to talk about them anymore. cheers!:cbig:
