Today's Smoke 2017

What's your impression of the Flor Del Valle Cristales?
Caesar, first time I had it I was underwhelmed. It tasted very green and vegetal to me with only hints of sweetness. This last one was quite different--after a year down the profile was totally different... cappuccino/crème brule with huge floral notes, definitely betraying its AGANORSA DNA. I think it's right up your alley.

I may or may not have a few headed my way ;)
 
About to have this somewhat crooked looking LGC. I think it's a mdo #3, but not sure on the number. Does anyone know which it is? I like the 2 and 4, so I'm hoping this is just as good :)

Many years ago I purchased Vitolario de Habanos, which describes every vitola by size and brand. It is probably one of the neatest reference pieces out there. Has three gauges, ruler and a write up of every brand. It is in Spanish but you can easily decipher it. So your cigar is either a delicados extra 14.29mm x 185 Medaille D'Or No. 1 or a panetelas largas 11.11 mm x 175 mm Medaille D'Or No. 3.

That sounds pretty neat, thanks! I thought it was either the 1 or 3. I have another I can measure, just need to the find the ruler or tape measure..
