The new CA arrived today. Some interesting finds inside are noted: :)

p. 37 Ashton Heritage Puro Sol - Rising Soon!

p. 66-67 FREE (the new) Macanudo Robust

p. 74 Montecristo White (in case you haven't heard of them yet)

p. 102 La flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chisel
(How to cut) You gotta see this. Use a punch cutter and punch the top of the cigar at the foot. Neat.

p. 105 Hoyo De Monterrey Hoyo de Arts - Pretty Boxes

p. 165 Don Diego Aniversario 40th. (Fuller Bodied)

I forgot this:

In the "Figurado's" taste testing section they have a....

AF HEmingway "Untold Story"
I have never heard of this before. Is it new or just made at certain times of the year?

Rating:89 A veiny figuarod that has a tight, wispy draw. It's cedary, with a cherry flavor. Some inconsistency was noted. US $12.00

p.191
 
I have one in one of my humis somewhere that I aquired about a year ago in a pass held over at cigardivan.com hosted by Samuel Clemmons. I think it's about time I smoke that thing and see if I want to find some more of em'..... :D
If I do like it, I might be looking to do a box split with a few guys if interested. :thumbs:

Most common are in Cammie wrapper. I prefer them in Maduro :love:
Most recently, a sungrown was released in very short supply. I wasn't impressed. Give me a AF Cuban Beli Sungrown anyday. Then there's always the Between-the-Lines :)
 
*inserts into Horse's list*

Work of Art
In-Between the Lines (wrapped opposite as the BTL's)

:thumbs:

Sam (who perfers the maduro's over the cammies too but won;t snub a cammie :p )
 
I knew I'd forget something. Damned it's hard being a FOG :p
 
Correct me if I am wrong, but my understanding was that the IBTL was actually the 3 color beauty about the size of the Signature ???
 
Is there a big difference in size between the short story and work of art?
 
IBTL signed by Carlito....

And the SS is much smaller than the WOA
The WOAM is 2nd from left and the SS is third

Thanks for the pic PB. Are the SS always with a striped wrapper like that?

I stand corrected. To quote Horse.... nevah mind - I am not that old yet :sign:

Sam
 
LOL :D Haven't ever seen a real one myself Sam, but ain't they purdy? :p

[edited to reflect the facts, the SS is not stripped, the BTL is what was in my mind at this point, sorry for the confusion]
Yes LB, they are always stripped, there are Blond caps, Maduro caps and there are some that are wrapped in the opposite direction. Don't ask me which is rarer, but I had one with a Maddy cap and smoked it 4th of July 2002 and it was wonderfull :p :thumbs:(Thanks Devin :love: )
 
Very purdy :sign:

The BTL is one of my top 5 dream list cigars I want to try.

That IBTL though might just have to go in the top 10 though! :p

SS aren't striped. That's a BTL. the SS is the 2nd from the right in that picture I think. Note also that the WOA has a pointy cap and the SS is rounded.

Oops, my mistake. Call it a brain fart.....

substitute BTL in place of SS and all will be well, eh? ???

And I think the 2nd from the left is the WOAM :sign:
