Got a handful of gifts from a few friends who just got back from somewhere down South.

Cohiba smoked today. Very smooth.

Don Lino Africa Tembo, courtesy of ggainey (thanks, Greg!). Nice flavors, dark chocolate and a raisiny flavor that reminded me of port; but the weirdest burn I've ever had with a cigar. At about the halfway point, this stick tunneled for a good inch and a half before going out. The wrapper was intact, but wrinkled, so you could easily see the depth of the tunneling. Broke out the JetLite and ran it around the wrapper, and the cigar relit easily.
I did a bit of googling and apparently these sticks are notorious for burn issues, much like the Padilla Obsidian. I wonder if several months at a lower RH would improve the burn on these as well.

Flavor wise I think it was lacking a little bit. I was a little drunk at the time... I don't really remember... Sorry!

Day before yesterday I smoked a flor de oliva maduro robusto (with a 4inch twig in it) and a Aurora Barrel Aged Corona. Didn't get a chance to smoke yesterday.

Scottw · 04-01-2010, 09:38 AM

I smoked a My Father Le Bijou Robusto last night. Wasn't crazy about the first inch or so but it developed into quite a tasty smoke.

shilala · 04-01-2010, 09:48 AM

Burned a 1926 #35 maduro yesterday. It was a little flat, but it was old. Gotta hit those Pam's early.

DropTheE · 04-01-2010, 11:46 AM

Last night I burned one of my CI freebie's since I was putting together new patio furniture and turning screws for an hour!! It was an El Mejor Espresso, the couple inches or so was pretty decent, but then I had burn issues, wouldn't keep a fire. So I ended up with only half a cigar last night.

I have spent so much money this week on cigars, since I bought a new Lexington Cabinet, I have been putting some inventory in there. And since Tuesday was my birthday wouldn't you know it, a box of ESV 91's and a 4 pk of God of Fire Tubos found it's way into my shopping cart!!
What a good week!!
