(for those that don't know, marca is the brand, vitola is the size... ie: Bolivar Petite Corona)

The one I had didn't... I don't believe the Perla 1952's have a pigtail although I could be mistaken

An emergency arose that made it impossible to be near my house, let alone a computer. Things are mostly back to normal now, but life is life and sh1t happens.

Anyway... here goes:

What they smoked:

Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic Perla

Slavac score: 9.0
Flat4boxer score: 8.9

That's the thing with NC's... few draw problems. These are very small smokes that I'll have to revisit at some point. It's been a long, long while since I smoked an NC (not because I'm a snob, I just know what I like and my collection is of mostly habanos

). Apparently, tho these two, they are pretty damned good. I'll have to smoke one while reading their reviews to see if I can pick up on any of the same things. It's nice to see a consistent rating between both Brad and Kelly, though.

Joeseph (Coastietech) will have a 5er of these on his doorstep as soon as the postal service delivers them. I'm glad a Jets fan guessed correctly...

Keep em coming, guys!

This kicks ass... Whoo hoo!!! Thank you!

DBall · 09-24-2009, 09:46 AM

Well... I smoked one. There were hints of goodness that I can't quite place but it was quite different than what i'm used to. At times I swear I tasted glue and it stayed fairly one dimensional to my palate. Eh... It wasn't horrible, just not my cup of tea.

5.5/10
