Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

I'm just getting ready to put the flame to a RP sg maduro. Heard good things about these.

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

Great cigar imo! I have had both the robusto and the toro and I definitely prefer the robusto - it's much more intense, but a great blend either way. :tu

L'atelier 54 - great construction, burns nice but blend is rather uninspiring imo. Cream, honey, occasional butter with white pepper accent and never really switches up from that. Not bad for a morning cigar but I don't plan on getting more.

Sinistro Mr. Red maduro presidente

Beautiful oily wrapper; tight construction (recommend a guillotine cutter on this one); slightly uneven burn line; medium body and flavor.

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

@ mjcujo definitely a nice wrapper on that Sinistro! Coincidentally, I've been eyeing the Sinistro brand lately. Haven't smoked any yet, but I read a stellar review about "the last cowboy" recently and considering checking that one out, preferably in the corona size.
Have you tried that blend before by chance?

CAO La Traviata Maduro Corona - while CAO might not be a favorite brand of mine overall, the La Traviata has always been a reliable, *immensely* flavorful cigar. Definitely under the radar and I think that's intentional - because the cigar can definitely speak for itself.

Aladino Corojo Reserva - super potent corojo. Call me crazy (and I would agree with you) but I think I actually prefer the CLE Corojo more than this one. Both are very nice but this one is almost a bit too peppery and the CLE Corojo just has more flavor. I would be interested in trying the original Aladino Corojo as well someday to see how it compares to the Reserva.

AJF Ramon Allones Toro - I was a dummy and smoked a lot out of a box I had bought of these last spring because after 6-8 months it has absolutely transformed in to a completely different cigar. I think I have maybe 5 left so I'll be watching for these to go on sale and buy another box to stash away long term.

601 Green Oscuro Corona - man what a flavorful blend. Really, Eric Espinosa deserves some kind of medal like "The medal of super....duper tasty cigars guy" medal. Metal. :banger

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

I couldn't agree more. I don't smoke as many of the greens as I do the blues, but they're damned tasty.

Having an Oliva V Double Robusto now.

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

@ James yeah I can't decide which I like more between the green and blues, just kind of depends on what mood I'm in! I actually haven't tried the reds yet but I have a 5 pack that's getting pretty close to fully rested so I'm looking forward to trying them soon!

Tonight I went with a AJF San Lotano Maduro Small Batch From Atlantic Cigars. No picture but it is one heck of a powerful stick, recommended, but only after dinner. :)

Warped La Hacienda Robusto Extra - been resting a box of these for 1.5 months and could wait no longer!! Love this blend, really creamy and has a lot of unique vegetal and mineral notes within the cream. Great morning cigar.

AB Coyol Toro - love the wrapper on this one...medium body at most but very spicy floral notes in this cigar, quite flavorful considering the body!

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

I really enjoy those.

Just lit a LADC EE #5.

I had an AB Tempus Natural Churchill last night and sometimes I forget what a time commitment a slow smoking Churchill is, heh. Otherwise a great cigar!

PDR El Trovador Maduro Corona - the wrappers on these are spectacular, they smell like damp potting soil! :tu smokes like a champion, I'll have to review one when it's not a work day for me. Definitely recommended.

To cold to have a cigar last night. :sad

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

Yeah I hate the weather this time of year...fortunately it's supposed to warm up here this weekend...somewhat anyway haha.

Tonight I went with another...

Casa Fernandez Aganorsa Leaf Toro - too worn out from the work week and being old to bother with a pic and description...but I'll give you this much: it's a great cigar.

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

https://i.postimg.cc/D0gzNmJq/CC0-A9...CD0-FFE586.jpg

AB Magic Toast Robusto - okay this is an interesting one....not picking up much pepper but it is a very rich cigar. Slow even burn and very savory notes. Another that I would like to review at length eventually, once they've had some more rest and I, a cleaner palate. Check this one out if you are on the fence about it, it's a winner.

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

I picked one up at my B&M a few months ago and quite enjoyed it. So I grabbed a box off CBID.

I'm having a Caldwell All Out Kings Robusto now.

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

I used to love cbid, until they started enforcing the Ohio excise tax, which is a new tax on top of the existing Ohio tax which basically makes the deals on cbid....not deals anymore. So yeah, woe is me, and may the wind blow cold and hard upon the face of the wicked taxman.
Moving on to a happier note -

JFR Lunatic Hysteria Toro - HOT DAMN! This is one hellion of a cigar...ive already had 2 cigars today and this is smoking like it was my first of the day! Fire-y black pepper out the gate with rich heavy spicy flavors that stick around once the pepper mellows. Basically a JFR Lunatic with fuller body and darker more savory character.
I'd recommend this to anyone that likes full bodied karate-kick cigars (Weelok, if you see this - definitely give them a try). I'll be buying a box in the future for sure. :tu

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

I love the JFR lunatic, think I saw something about these coming out but totally forgot about it and never heard anything about them till now. Sounds really good!

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

Yeah Chayse if you liked the original Lunatic you'll love these, tons of smoke and flavor and they are priced quite reasonably as well imo!

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

https://i.postimg.cc/x1d3Q1hS/043309...-CB6-BC315.jpg

Casa Fernandez Arsenio Maduro Robusto - been eager to try this one, have had it resting about a month and a half and while it's enough to get an idea of the blend, I think I'll leave the remaining 4/5 to sit a while longer. Peppery and leathery with an even burn and medium-full body. Cap was a little sloppily adhered but it's still a nice cigar!

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

Drew estate Norteno, wasn’t bad but not great tons of smoke like all drew estates but found the flavors weak and mild. I’d give it medium bodied at best.

Re: pnoon's what cigar did you smoke today VII?
 

https://i.postimg.cc/9F8bshNN/0-DFF3...-D63-FB0-A.jpg

601 Steel Toro - aptly named, this is what I think many would refer to as a pepper bomb. Some nice buttery floral notes but really rough around the edges. Like 601 Greens less sophisticated cousin with a lengthy criminal record and questionable genetics.
