Started with a Crux Epicure which was fairly mild but still tasty. I have yet to smoke a Crux that I haven't liked. I probably won't get any more, but I definitely won't have a hard time reaching for the 4 I have left.
Right after finishing the Crux I blindly grabbed a smoke out of my singles drawer and came out with an older Oliva torpedo with a blue cloth band. I don't know anything about it, but it was pretty tasty.

Johnny O fresh rolled Oct 3017 - got two Johnny O’s of different sizes in November and let this sit in the bottom of the cigar cooler drying out and staying cool, around 60 dry F, to make sure no creepy crawlers spawn. I had them in a plastic bag isolated on the bottom all by their lonesome.

This is my first Johnny O and I’m impressed! Pretty strong Cigar with a strong tannin leather flavor. Draw is great and I presume my drying them out helped the draw but since this is my first, I can only speak to this one Cigar.

Would I buy any? Yes, but they seem a bit pricy and I wouldn’t say it’s better then a Tatuaje, AJ F, Viaje, or Casa Fernandez Cigar but it’s certainly quite good. I oils see why smoking hem fresh is good and I could see how four years of aging would be a nice experience but that is pure speculation on my part.

After that Johnny O Cigar, which ended quite full in my opinion, I opted for a Viaje Ghost Pepper. I have no idea why I’m smoking a second cigar but playing a game on the iPad so here I go.

La Flor Dominicana Andalusian Bull. Not as strong as other LFDs I've smoked, but good construction and flavor, albeit a bit one-dimensional.

Re: What cigar did you smoke today VI?
 
I just finished a Tatuaje Pudgy Monster Drac. It was pretty good. If the construction were only better, I wouldn't mind a 5'er.
I just lit up an Illusione Epernay. The size is the "Le Grande" from the look of it. Initial puffs were similar to a PLPC that Pnoon gifted me recently. Milder than that was, but that burnt marshmallow is pretty tasty. Hoping the rest of this cigar is just as nice.

Tonight’s cigar is the Tatuaje Avion 11 which is certainly a candidate as one of my top 10 favorite cigars.

I smoked the AJ Enclave a few nights back and the next night an AJ Enclave Broadleaf and to be honest they are both great so neither got an edge up on the other. This Avion beats them both hah.

Started off with another Pudgy Monster. The Face this time....meh. Then I lit up a San Cristobal Elegancia which wasn't bad. I won't look for a fiver, but it was a good smoke.

Cold here on the East Coast but last cigar before heading to Cali. Tonight’s cigar is a Flores y Rodriguez Tamborie from some benevolent lottery doner. First time for me on this cigar and Inthink I’m getting a cold bleh.

I will smoke one of those tonight to remind myself of what I thought. I bought them as a special cigar to share over Christmas with my Thursday group and I recollect them being good with hints of Cuban leather flavors mixed with a bit of dryness. Now that I have smoked TTT tropes I would say similar profile and medium body.

Personally, to me, the three escorts are better hah but I should really smoke a second.

Weelok 02-14-2018 11:33 PM

Re: What cigar did you smoke today VI?
 
Well, it pays to smoke a second. The Wunderlust is a hell of a lot better then I recollect. I still get leather but it’s not dry. It’s more of a tannin leather that has a creamy texture. The resting aroma is dry leather up through the nostrils.

New flavors are a sweetness I distinctly didn’t taste in December that adds a very nice balance to the leather and tannins. Whoo, this is definitely moved from good to great and I do wonder if it’s more humid then when I got them in December??? Either way, much better then recollected.

TxRebel, what were your thoughts?
