What is smoking well?

[Clint]

Great thread Clint!

Thanks!

This is really fun...If anyone has these sticks in their humi, they can re-visit them.

There is at least one stick mentioned so far that I think I have a 5'er of...Now I want to smoke one!

Cuban cigars.

Come on Ben, we all know you smoke a lot Cuban stuff, but not ALL Cuban cigars are smoking well right now. Since it is all you smoke, you could offer some insight on the subject....Just sayin.

Ben is silly with his vintage habano palate lol

I've got a box of '11 Bolivar PCs that are great (smoking one as I type this). One of the handful of habanos that smoke fantastic fresh IMHO.

I have a couple Faces that have been sitting. Now I'm gonna have to smoke one.

Also this^^^.
I've found that the Illusiones I've been sitting on have aged remarkably. As a pretty much exclusively NC guy, its nice to have smokes that I know will be perceptively better with age. And without the mandatory waiting period that is generally associated with CCs. Not to take anything away from the cuban contingent, but I like having a stick that is very good now, with the distinct possibility of greatness later.

Had an OR Fed 90th Reserva last night for my b-day smoke.

When these first came out, I liked the Rosados better, and gave a lot of the Reservas away :/

Really an enjoyable smoke, with a nice balance of raisin sweetness from the CBL wrapper, and wood/pepper on the core. Smoking very well right now :thumbsup:

'06 Qdo gran coronas are smoking amazingly right now. The 03 hdm des dieux are as well.

Question about Alec Bradley Fine and Rare 2012, is anyone smoking these right now? I picked up one to try when they came out and after reading a few not so stellar review I just set it aside. I know with less than a year on it, it's not even considered age but I'm curious to know if they're improving any.

I hope so I got a full box and still haven't jumped on any lol. Rev
