601 La Bomba Nuclear - picked up a 5er of these in robusto and they blew my mind, brimming with flavor! Just wish they sold them by the 50s instead of box's of 10s.

A box of H. Upmann Nicaragua by AJ Fernandez. I picked one up to try at my B&M not too long ago, smoked it, loved it, and ordered the box.

Great choice!! Those are definitely among my favorite by AJF. If you like that cigar and havent had an AJF Punch Diablo before, I'd recommend that one to check out. I think they are both similar in taste, particularly by exhibiting that sharp buttery note that seems to be in a lot of AJs' stuff.

Thanks for the recommendation, I haven't tried that one as yet.

I first saw the band (it is truly a classic) and heard some good reviews. So, I swapped AdamJoshua for some shaving stuff to get a few. They were excellent!

So, I looked around for them. They are more expensive that I can truly afford, so I picked up a 5er when I found the lanceros on special.

It will probably be a while before I get anymore, as I only purchase cigars when I get disposable income (income that is not a part of the regular budget - usually honorariums for funerals, weddings, etc... none of which I seen on the horizon). As the humidor is well-stocked, the next disposable income I do get will got to projects I need to do up at the cabin, so it will be a while before I make another cigar purchase.

I have also tried the Charter Oak line (much more reasonably priced), the maduros were lackluster in my opinion, but the Connecticut were very nice. There are some other lines by the same manufacturer that I'd like to try, but again, the $$ are prohibitive at this time.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
