Fall back cigar Series D 4 for the ending of a good day..

  Thanks Paul - that makes total sense.  Memory returning for a few minutes!

I don't even know what I'm smoking .. had a shuffle through one of the humidors and this floated to the top.  I guess I could google what Ltd. Edicions were for 2011.  Tastes like a Monty - but not sure.   Thoughts? [sharedmedia=gallery:images:12211]

Last nights smoke was so good it stayed with me today.  Rare for that to happen.   Tonight, an Edmundo while I surf this forum.   [sharedmedia=gallery:images:12209]

I'd love to hear what other people are using also.  I'm looking for something for my cave.  Doors open just doesn't cut it in the winter.

After Oke&Coke reminded me of the Padron's I searched through the humidor and found a 1964  sitting there as suspected.  Not sure which it is (box pressed, 1964 Anniversary)  but it's sublime!  Thanks Oke!

Super Hoyo San Juan - with a few of the chaps at the Cuban Cigar Club - fast becoming one of my fave smokes. [sharedmedia=gallery:images:12203]  

Yikes! "A smokey woody flavour".   Ever picked up a lit cigar and put the wrong end in your trap?

I was at a launch of two new UK brands at Cuban Cigar Club in Newcastle (plug!).   First off was something I never heard of,  "Swag" 100% Dominican.   It was ok - but at the price I think with so many options I'd select something else.   Next up the Rocky Patel "Royale".  I'm a big fan of box...

Ramon Allores Robusto.   Undecided so far - a mysterious beginning...     (later)   ... and a great middle and end.  Was a bit dismayed to find a soapy taste for the first few puffs and it was a hard hit but soon mellowed into a lovely smoke.

Nice ash!

  RH = 69   I used one in a small box humidor (50 stick) so just put two in here and it seems good.  To be fair, I'll watch it over the winter when we have the heating on more and if it drops then I'll make a change.
