Needed something I knew was a winner. Oh yeah, for the search engine Padron '64 Anniversary since @Rod hasn't gotten to where the engine reads the photo..... yet.

It was just good enough to keep me from chunking it early, but never got past needing to get pretty damn hot to produce a good volume of smoke. I actually was so frustrated (not just this cigar, but a string of poor construction Opus) i messaged Carlito on Instagram, he’s won’t reply, he’s busy posing for facebook pictures and crap liked that, instead of maybe going to Padrons factory and learning how to make super consistent HQ cigars. if i didn’t love the flavor profile so much of Fuente Premiums, i would have told them to f right off years ago. Yes, I’m a butthurt little bi*ch right now

Damn, it sucks to hear that. Fuente was always a go to for me for consistently well made cigars.

Enjoying a Pledge Prequel for my Tuesday long lunch.

That's an interesting shape. Reminds me kind of the Drew Estate Egg.

ETA: for me, this is a phenomenal stick! Probably going to be a contender for COTY. If you want one, you better hurry. There’s only 2000 boxes of 10. I gave it a 97.

One of my no-name seconds. I only get them now if the maker lets them put their label on them but whatever this is, it’s very good! Some black spots on the wrapper is all I can see might have made it a second. Perfect construction and draw, tight ash, very nice smoke. Prolly 5 years old and maybe $2.50 per stick, whatever it is.

Gilberto Oliva Riserva Blanc
Wonderful for the price.
I’d probably think the same at twice the price. Great smoke.

Aladino Corojo Reserva.

Med/full bodied and tasty Honduran with Honduran/Corojo fixins'.

This one brings a kick.

Warped Cloud Hopper - very nice light to medium smoke, inexpensive, great flavor, sweeter than I expected for a Nica corojo blend.
