That saves a lot of words. 
I like strong smokes that grow, blossom and change. They're fun.
On the other hand, if you want 14 inches of "okay" that never does anything, the LFD A's are the answer.
I suppose each has it's place. Your "likes" run real close to mine, and you like cigars to do the stuff I like, even if we don't like exactly the same flavors.
If you want to try a cigar that I think is technically perfect, try to land an original release Padilla Achilles.
It does EVERYTHING right. They just taste like green spray painted astroturf to me.
But I can appreciate the technical genius behind the blend. Ya know? |
Yes, you did send to me one of the As. I haven't tried it yet as it has been sitting in my humidor. The Litto Gomez was indeed incredible - a stellar smoke - although I didn't find it all that "strong."
Something that tastes like green spray painted astroturf doesn't sound like something I really want to try. Why? I've eaten my share of it from different sports, never really did like it much then. However, I will keep my eyes open for an original Padilla Achilles, as I heard they are really good cigars. If I do find one, pardon me if I hope and pray that you were stuck varnishing or spray painting something every time you've had one, and so it was only your delusional mental meanderings that made them
appear to taste like "green spray painted astroturf."
Love you man, it's all good.
