Went out on break after lunch with an Argenese Nicaraguan Presidente petit corona. Only managed about an inch of it, it sucked - difficult draw and reminded me of burning grass. Already had several out of the box so probably got a dud.

Tossed it and went back inside for a Cabaiguan Petit. Was much better, but was to mild a follow-up to the Argenese to fully take the taste out of my mouth. Should have just grabbed it first.

Tried to smoke a Famous Nicaraguan 1000 Lonsdale I received in a trade some time back.

Just...didn't like it.

Construction was great - it looked good, great triple cap, nice packing, burned beautifully, draw was good.

But it just didn't taste good. At all.

It tasted like I was smoking cigarettes, and that is not at all the flavour I enjoy in a cigar.

Smoked about an inch and a half and put it down.

A 2 yr old Reserva Miraflor Robusto....this is a damn fine cigar in my opinion! :cbig:

Smoked a Viaje Holiday Blend 2010 and I have to say I loved it and am glad I have another one in the humidor.

La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor
Padron 2000 natural - I've smoked a ton of these over the years and I still can't decide if I like naturals or maduros better.

Started off the evening with a PDR Oscuro Corona (the old label)...good, but definitely some burn issues. Then I lit up a Cain Maduro Nub...not so good, chucked it soon after lighting. Then I lit up a Tat Havana VI Victorias...thank God for Tats, kept the night from being a total bust.

Tat Barclay Rex... reminded me of a tweaked Cojonu blend

almost started with PSD4, too. Went with Punch Corona instead and it is unravelling before my eyes.

You were right.....
