Tat black torp.
Perdomo ESV '91 Toro. Pretty good stick... I expected it to be really mild b/c of the Connecticut wrapper but it had a surprising body to it. I'd say medium to medium-full... Fairly complex. I can't really point out all of the flavors but there were a number of them and a few nice changes. My first Perdomo smoke... I'll have to try more of them! Thanks for the stick Montano!

It was really a cool experiment. As the flavors would change and develop, we'd pass them around and try and name them....berry, cinnamon, coffee, red pepper versus black pepper. It was fun. We'll probably do it again next week with a bunch of different rocky patels
Had a La Herencia Cubana Toro earlier. Probably going to have a Perdomo Cab Res or RP Olde World Res later on.

http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn222/bdeuce22/cc2f8509.jpg This cigar was absolutely fantastic. easily, one of the nicest cigars i've ever smoked. ranks right up there with a Siglo VI. They are pretty expensive, but I'd be more inclined to buy these over Padron 26s or the Anniversaries for a similar price. I'm not sure how accessible these are for people, but if you can find one, try it.

Heck no, bro! I've been dying to try those! I was a little dissappointed in the Illusione, though. :(. It was pretty mild and I figured it would be more full bodied. By no means a bad smoke... Just not what I was expecting. Of course my palate might have been a bit thrashed by the end of the night as well... And it may just be a bum stick (not much smoke and seemed to mild and subdued). So I'll revisit it again soon.

Yup. No windshield and at 80mph.
This stick held up surprisingly well! It didn't start to look like a cartoon bomb cigar until it was at the nub. The flavors were a bit different and so was the long finish. Not sure if that's caused by the air pressure, or the fact that I'm chomped down on the stick. Either way, it was good! lol.

Thanks for the link, although for me it just shows 5-packs for $25.
I did find some 5ers on CigarAuctioneer for $10, we'll see if I get lucky on them. Just blew the budget on some Presidente petit coronas in Nicaraguan and Maduro, though so not going to worry about it too much. Gonna be gone next week so can't place any more orders till I get back anyway.
