Hey there folks. I didn't have the opportunity to smoke a cigar yesterday so this beautiful afternoon I'm going to sit down and enjoy, as well as review, a cigar with a pint of Guinness or some Black Butte Porter.

Which of these should I choose do you reckon?

S&B DC, S&B "?", Viaje Oro Perfecto, Padron 1964, LP T52 Flying Pig, or a T-Rex?

I'm hoping to grab some lunch and then light up in about an hour. Help me choose folks. I have the wonderful dilemma of too many choices. :crosseyed

Geez, couldn't make it any easier? All good options. Had a PAM '64 a few days ago and it was awesome. That said I really liked the S&B too (the OR, haven't had the new one). I've heard great things about the T-Rex also. If it were me I'd probably go with the T-Rex, but that T52 Pig looks delicioso.

I agree the Padron. Now I'm craving one!
I hear you there... Just had a Black Pearl ONLY because I was freezing (20 degrees) my ass off taking the Holiday lights down...

Now that it is done, I may have to light one up and celebrate and watch the Packers beat the Bears! :chat:

My vote goes to the B-rex too! :cbig:
Did you ever get around to smoking one of yours Larry?

I ended up smoking the Padron. I've had it for at least a year so I figured it was past due. I know some of you may be surprised by this, but it was actually pretty good. ;) I'll post up a review late on tonight most likely.

T-Rex! Not even a question.

PERSONALLY, I would let the pig rest, Padron is always reliable, and the ~?~ S&Bs needs to sit, too.

Next day, if it's a 2 stick day: Padron then DES. :yes:

I ended up smoking the Padron, but from the sound of it I'll need to revisit the T-Rex again soon. I reviewed the first one I smoked a little while ago and haven't touched any of my others since. I know these will age well though.

Yeah, I've been letting the S&Bs rest since October, but figured I might try another one. The pigs have been pretty darn good so far. :)

DES, i have one and wanna see how yours is!!!!!!!!
This one isn't actually a DES. It's an Oro Perfecto #2. I do have a DES that I've been sitting on for a while and I've been putting off smoking it since it's the only one I've got. Maybe I'll bite the bullet sooner rather than later and let you know how it is. ;)
