Thanksgiving 'Weekend' Smokes

[rpb67]

If we are talking about the weekend.

I want to smoke a Monte#2 that I have as well as a Hoyo 2003 EL. I hope the weather isn't so crappy as it was today.

Limited to a short smoke today due to crap weather and dad does not have a garage only a deck. Dad and I and had some homemade wine and two nicely aged Monte #4s.

Eh, now, tomorrow, and the weekend...hence the '' around weekend. :thumbsup:


I smoked a small bowl of Boswell's Berry Cobbler pipe 'baccy earlier...very good!

I don't have anything in particular lined up but plan on smoking a few. So far: an Anejo last night (no idea which one) and an '02 Partagas Corona on the way home from dinner at my sisters house.

Caudio makes me miss Seattle and the endless supply of micro's. I'd even kill for a Red Hook right now.

Indiana desperately needs some better beer.

We have some good stuff up here in South bend!
Lots of good local microbrews and a killer Irish pub!

Come up sometime and we can herf!

My parents cam in to town yesterday and my Dad and I enjoyed a couple bowls out on the deck in front of the fire.

Today we all went to Georgetown and my Dad and I enjoyed an '03 HdM Epicure #1 and an '04 RASCC each with a couple bowls in between.

We all had a really nice time since it was almost 60 out all day. :thumbsup:

I had a punch RS12 with my brother in law in thanksgiving and have been working since then so haven't really smoked anything else!

I might just do that sometime. :stretchgr

And???? How was it?

I thought it was a nice little smoke. Started off earthy with a slight spice. A medium bodied smoke(tons of it). I had a smaller of the vitola and want to see if there is more flavor with the large sticks.

It was even better since the rep gifted it to me. :smokingbo

I just finished off my weekend smokes with one of the 10/98 Monte Especial No.2 from the Todd ashtray buy. All I can say is WOW!!! I burnt my fingers, lips and tongue trying to make it last as long as possible. This is one special cigar. It started off nice and creamy with hints of vanilla and cocoa and finished with a nice spicy earthy twang. Needless to say I didn't want this one to end but luckily I have a few more left. The aftertaste right now is incredible. I'm on an MC high!!! :smokingbo

Lucky dog...What's the MSRP on the 1495's?

I want to say 10-15 but don't quote me too much on that.

John, this is the second time I have gone with those montes...they are spectacular!

 

[jcgoldner]

They were $9.40 on Todd's A la carte split for this nicely aged selection.

I can't wait to try mine! I still need to band/label them all!

I actually was going into the humi to band mine and decided to try one instead. It was a great decision!

They really are! I'm really making an effort to smoke the smaller ring gauge cigars much slower to get all the flavors out of them and it's working out nicely. Thanks for the tips guys!

 

[caudio51]

Let me hear these tips...

I usually gravitate towards larger rings but the 1495 was smaller and I enjoyed it a lot.
