Oliva Special G Maduro, Viaje Stuffed Turkey(tight draw but good flavors), and an EPC Dark Rituals(another fantastic smoke from EPC, might be my new favorite of his)

Last night was cold, so I closed the garage door and had a short smoke, I wasn't crazy about it, but it did produce a lot of smoke, which surprised me....good thing I have 3 more to sample before I make my final decision.

For quite a while I was unimpressed with Perdomo's Lot 23, but I recently was given several of the Maduros and have really been enjoying them. I nubbed one last night while walking the dog after the Jag game

Pretty nice construction and a beautiful ash that lasted for another 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch after this picture.

I am a fan of the 23 Maddies! They taste different to me than most maduros, but still very pleasant!

I'd personally call it Liga 9 "lite". Here's my review:

The Undercrown by Drew Estate. This is the supposed follow up to the Liga Privada 9. Long story short:

Drew Estate’s made a huge splash with their traditional Liga Privada #9. A favorite amongst the factory’s rollers, Drew Estate had to tell the rollers to stop smoking the blend because of the high demand of the cigar. So the working man had to adapt…And adapt they did. Created by the rollers of the Drew Estate factory, the Liga Privada Undercrown uses tobaccos similar to the Liga Privada #9 but that are more readily available.

From all the research and talking with my local tobacconist it's basically the same blend with a different wrapper. The high quality rare wrapper of the 9 is what makes the 9 what it is. With the wrapper substituted, after sampling I'd prefer to call the undercrown Liga Privada 9 "lite" vs. a "follow up." It's practically a carbon copy to the 9, only with a slight spice at the begining and the flavors aren't as pronounced.

To top it off, it's priced a little less than the 9, with the toro coming it at about $8 and change, vs. the 9 of the same size which runs $13. It's good, and worthy of having a few around

First time I sampled this cigar I was not impressed. I got it in a sampler. When I saw what they go for, I liked them even less. Over priced and just bland.

RyJ Edicion Limitada(NC), we just got these in at work. Pretty good first 2/3, last third was a little lacking, but still good. Wouldn't pay full price for one, but with my discount might grab another one and save it for later.

Monte Platinum, another solid smoke, but I like the Whites better.

LFD Maduro DL Chisel, was not expecting the smooth earthiness to it. Based on prior experience with the DL line I was expecting a good bit of spice. Shows how much a wrapper can affect the flavors. Definitely will grab another of these.

Last night was a Macanudo 1968 Robusto. Was a nice cigar but less than impressive. I expected more.

Nice. Thank you. Can't wait to try it.

Just lit a Cuba libre one. Initial smell and pre-light draw were wonderful. First couple puffs were bland and tasteless, but now that I am a 1/2 inch into it I'm really glad I snapped up a box of 20 for 36 bucks the other day on cigarsprintsale.com. really liking this thing.
