Padron 50 Years natural

6.5" x 52

This cigar was a gift from a friend.

Really good smoke. SLOW burn even with the typical Padron loose draw. I'd like to see how they pull that off. Maybe they could teach the rollers...

Re: Fonseca by My Father Cosacos

Too many bad experiences. Some bad construction, but mostly with underfermented tobacco. The last straw was a box of Tatuaje that still tasted like ammonia after 5 years in the humidor.

Fonseca by My Father Cosacos

5.75" x 42

I put Pepin/MF on my 'do not buy' list quite a while ago. But I needed a few dollars on an order to get free shipping, so I decided to give them another chance, and threw a couple...

Re: Lancero love

Southern Draw Cedrus lancero

7.5" x 40

I don't remember when I got this cigar. I think it was part of a sampler. I know this cigar has at least 1 year of humidor time. Box-pressed, shaggy...

Caldwell Long Live the Queen Queen's Club

This cigar was gifted to me. I wouldn't be smoking it otherwise, cuz it's a big fat log of a cigar with a 56 rg. Nice looking wrapper; good draw.

First few draws...a nice baking spice type flavor...

Another Warped cigar made in 'Merica. I had to try it. Added a couple singles to a recent order.

Visually, this cigar is absolutely perfect. Good draw.

First few draws...honey,...

Re: La Herencia Cubana toro

One thing I forgot to mention about this cigar line. They also come in a lonsdale size, which SHOULD be my favorite, since I love lonsdales. But for some reason, the lonsdales aren't that great. And...

La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte toro

6.5" x 50

These days, I automatically shy away from anything that has 'fuerte' in the name. Just a dumb gimmick to me. But this specific cigar has been in and out of my regular rotation since they...

La Herencia Cubana toro

6.5" x 52

This is an old school AJ Fernandez cigar which I'm pretty sure is a CI/C-Bid exclusive. I've been smoking these things off and on since they came out like 10+ yrs ago. Been stockpiling...

Re: Lancero love

HOLD ON, bro. Don't order just yet. I think they may have gone to sh*t.

These were only available in 5 packs for the longest time. Recently, they came out with boxes. So of course I bought a box. ...

Re: Diesel d.10th robusto

I smoked another one of my well-rested five pack tonight. It was so good that I'm looking at my cabinet playing mental Tetris figuring out how to fit a box.

No joke. Great smoke.

La Palina Collection Mr. Sam

I added a 5 pack of these to a recent Cigar Page order. I am always interested in trying cigars that are made in the US.

Good construction; good draw.

I've tried a few of the Diesel lines over the years, and they've been hit or miss for me, and even the hits weren't good enough for me to build a stockpile of (which is apparently what I do when I...

Fuente Anejo No. 46

WTF.

I may be wrong, but I don't think there is any natural fermentation process that can turn a tobacco leaf this color. I mean, this cigar looks like it was dipped in shoe polish. I considered...

Davidoff Millennium 2023 lancero

I decided to splurge on some pricier cigars and wine for my birthday. I grabbed a box of these on C-Bid.

Review: not worth $29/stick. :r


OK, OK, a real review. The cigar starts off,...

Padron 1926 #9 natural

This cigar is way fatter than I normally like (56 rg) but it's box pressed, so that makes it a little better. A little better. This cigar was part of a sampler. I am not 100% sure, but I don't think...

These cigars looked really nice on Cigar Page, and they were on sale, so I grabbed a 5 pack a while back.

The appearance is absolutely top notch. Just beautiful cigars. Flawless wrappers. Nice...

Re: Warped Cloud Hopper No. 53

Smoking another one of these now. Great little smoke.

But I have a gripe with Warped.

Since trying my first Cloud Hopper, I've tried a bunch of other Warped blends, and A LOT of them have had...

Re: Plasencia Alma Fuerte Generacion V Salomon

OK, so this is crazy, but these cigars have become quite a bit milder since the last one I smoked. I thought maybe it was a fluke and smoked one from another box. Same story. Considerably milder and...
