someone foisted a Don Lugo (thompson) torpedo on me at my local shop and wanted an opinion, so I smoked about 1/2 of that- it was a bit mild and lacked substantial flavor- what flavor that was there wasn't too bad, however; I don't believe I'd ever buy one, but for an everyday $1 smoke it was passable

minalpharetta I want to try the Montecristo No. 2.
Had a Genuine Pre-Embargo Counterfeit Cuban 1958 Gourmet Figurado it was pretty good nice flavor and aroma. I would pick up a couple and see how they do with a little more time in the Humi. So far my best smoke this week was my La Gloria Cubana Series R hell of a smoke that was. Picking up a box maybe this week.

slow aged by perdomo this morning with coffee, and now attempting to decide what i should have after a horrible night serving the masses....
Come again? You know I don't speak Spanish. In English, please. What? You pooped in the refrigerator? And you ate the whole... wheel of cheese? How'd you do that? I'm not even mad, that's amazing.

Early a Bauza Pyramid. My first box of these, and with three left think it is my last, too many QC problems, have had to toss five of them. Very rough appearance, two of them self destructed by unraveling, and the last one I threw away looked like it had been splattered by black paint. Maybe some sort of black mould or other disease I haven't seen before. Anyway, now a HDM Dark Sumatra Robusto. A very nice cigar as long as you follow the hierarchy of smoking, ie, nothing stronger before it.
