How do you like the Charter Oak? Give a bit of a description.


Peace of the Lord be with you.

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

I thought it was pretty good, smooth flavors with some chocolate and cream notes. I am going to let the rest sit for a bit to my desired humidity, I am thinking I will like these even better when they're a little less "wet".

From yesterday/last night l had...
Crowned Heads Headley Grange - really tasty smoke, very much enjoyed that aspect of it, however lacking a little in body for my taste..
H Upmann AJ Fernandez - loved this one, another AJ blend I'm adding to my to-get-more-of list
Also had a My father No. 2 (no photo) which was a bit early/young but still very nice.

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

Although Crowned Heads age their tobacco pre and post rolled product it has been my experience 6 months to 2 years plus to really bring out their flavors. Especially in the Headley Grange and Jericho Hill lines.

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

Thanks for the tip dijit!! Yeah I'm still kind of early in the game as far as trying a lot of new stuff, but I will definitely make a note to set some aside to rest longer.
Thinking once I get some empty boxes (currently have none to spare thanks to all the 5 & 10 packs I've ordered recently) that I will designate a few to put some cigars in that will benefit from some age...pepin blue, black & white are definitely in the early running, but will make a note to add some Crowned Heads to that list as well! :)

LADC Edicion Especial - been trying to leave a box of these alone in the humidor but couldn't resist - I love these things, spectacular cigar!

601 Blue Robusto in honor of our favorite madurowhore...Mac!

Rest in peace brother!

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

I was digging around in the coolerdor today, hoping to find something... and I did. This came to me a few years back from Mac... I'd been saving it for a special occasion. Today I fired it up in memory of him.

It was amazing!

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

I am still a bigger fan of the Serie V, but these are nice. Too bad they are all gone (unless of course you find some stashed away somewhere).

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

Last night I actually only smoked th S & B so the Fausto is on deck later. The S & B is many years old and was a slow burning Full body full strength little bugger so I was done hah.

Tonight first cigar up is thanks to Massphatness.

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

It was good. I only had the one as it came from some great CA brother in a lottery I won. It was a typical good quality Connecticut shade cigar which isn’t normally something I reach for but it was an early morning cigar and fit the bill nicely.

Construction was great, flavors on point of cream and cedar, burn great.

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

Last night -

https://i.postimg.cc/rF9LHXWB/3-FBCE...406-D0-A50.jpg

Don Pepin Blue - ive come to realize that Pepin's stuff benefits immensely from longer spells in the humidor and BOY does that pay off! Wonderful, well rounded cigar, easily in my current top 5 (the Cuban classic is in there too). Hear a lot of people toss around the label "Fuente whore", so I suspect that makes me a "Pepin prostitute":wnr

And this morning -

GotF Apollo - amazing as always, the cigar that made cigars a "once in a while treat" for me to "holy moly, I need to smoke as many quality cigars as I can afford" :tu

Punch Signature - one of the most leathery profiles I've smoked to date. Imagine rolling up Henry Winkler/The Fonz in a cigar and smoking it. Minus the all the hair. Ayyyyy. :tu

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

AVO Classic, which went surprisingly well with some Ardbeg 10.

CAO La Traviata - Love these things, affordable, consistent and most importantly, delicious! Down to only 3-4 boxes in the humidor, which means it's time to order more!! :lr in all seriousness though, i do need to get around to trying the La Traviata maduro...

CLE Connecticut with coffee for breakfast...taken moments before I dropped it and broke the wrapper :(

@ Tio Gato hey what did you think of the short robusto? I ordered a 5 pack of the El Chiquito a while back because I couldn't find the short robusto in stock. The El Chiquito tastes great, has that spicy nutty taste that I love in a lot of Casa Fernandez's stuff but it tends to overheat and the draw is waaay too loose...

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

I thought it was very good. Not as good as the Miami Reserva natural.:2

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

Last Call Maduro was last night and rest time plus some restored humidity and these are now slightly below great.

The JFR is today I’m afternoon and wow, these are so much better then the JFR’s from years back which I thought were pretty bland. This is quite good!!!!

RP 1961 - a pleasant smoke, but very middle of the road...nothing about it particularly caught my interest....but not bad, just not excellent either.
Having another La Traviata with coffee for breakfast atm!

Not bad at all, almost an unnatural sweetness that im guessing comes from the whiskey barrels?

Cohiba Red Dot Churchill - guilty pleasure, when I find these on cigarbid at the right price I stock up! (Would never pay full price for them, way too overpriced imo)
Side note - the girlfriend says this one makes the room smell like a public restroom that hasn't been cleaned for a long time, and I don't disagree...but a very tasty public restroom at that!! :tu

H. Upmann La Casa Del Habano - I was given this cigar a month or so ago by a fellow local Cigar Asylum inmate, Buckeye Jack! Excellent smoke, started off smooth and mellow but after about 3/4s of an inch, a really nice spice kicks in! Spice settled down to an intense earthiness at the end, truly enjoyable. A big thanks to Jack for this cigar!!! :banger

RP Decade Robusto - bought a 10er of these to see what all the hype was about..excellent cigar to be sure, but imo it falls a little short of all the hype :2

Oliva Serie V Toro - really enjoyed this one, pretty deserving of the acclaim, but was unaware when ordering that this was one of those fat style Toros, and I think I prefer a smaller ring gauge when it comes to Toros :tu
