I think you r missing my point. I have no problem with what the Reds payers did. Yes, the did break a law. I broke the law 7 times today (speeding: 30 in a 25), cell phone, failure to use signal when turning into my driveway). So yes, I broke the law today. The Reds broke one too. BFD...

Regardless of opinions regarding these indoor smoking bans, these bans are still law and these laws must be obeyed. The citizens who called in to report the violation are complete and utter mopes. But still, Reds mgmt and players should know that the law still applies to them and their clubhouse.

They are even better with some age. I'm a fan.

I think everyone will enjoy these a great deal. It is a very smooth and balanced smoke. Perfect draw. Good ash. Smooth, creamy, subtle. It's a good morning smoke. It's a good afternoon smoke. It's a good night smoke too. It's a keeper.

Padron 1926's are like a fine wine. They are meant to be enjoyed slowly. If you rush through them, you won't really be able to get all of the little nuances in the flavor.

email with pics sent.

Not offended at all. I personally know the man behind this cigar and he is a good guy. I'd be happy to email a pic of the cigar to someone to post here as I have no desire to open up an online image hosting account. PM me and I'll email a pic taken against my CP account page.

I've got one of the torpedos and it really looks great. Nice and oily and smells delicious.

It definitely won't be the same and might even end up a little bitter. I'd stash it away in a humidor at 70%. The '26s seem to do better on the higher end of the humidity scale. Give it a month or so.

Yesterday was a Padron 1926 #35 maduro. It sucked. It was thin, light and loose. It just didn't have all of the usual goodness and deliciousness. It was quite bitter. Guess it was just a bad one. Rarely do I get a bad #35 or any 1926 for that matter. Going to Jazz @ Lincoln Center with my...

Of course it was. I was even wearing a fuchsia leotard and listening to Olivia Newton John. I prefer the 44th over the 45th any day. I've spent a fair amount of time with both and just feel the 44th has that little something special. If I were going to give numerical ratings, I'd give the...

If you like the 45th, try the 44th. It's even more gooder.
