2nd Annual Thanksgiving "Smoke Your Rare Cigar" Weekend - Page 3

11-24-2010, 11:45 PM

Its not Thanksgiving here in Canada but I did indulge in a 94 ERDM PC. Great cigar, still a lot of strength even after 15+ years aging. Had an 07 Siglo 1 & a 05 Party Short to finish off the day.

Wish I could participate... but I have no "Rare" cigars.

benedic08 · 11-25-2010, 01:55 AM

Hmmm... Never Tried doing a review but maybe i'll give it a try here.... I'll probably smoke my first Skull And Bones that Mariogolbee gave me...

Ahbroody · 11-25-2010, 02:16 AM

Hmmmmm I dont think I have anything nearly that rare. Will need to rumage. Maybe go for a regional.

akumushi · 11-25-2010, 03:15 AM

Awesome idea Brooks. Too bad I went through a "life's too short to sit on rare smokes" phase and smoked all my rarities in short order not too long ago

Here we go

I'm kind of running low on "rare" cigars because I kind of did the same thing as Clayton, and I didn't have that many to start with. Anyway, I'm enjoying an Arturo Fuente Hemingway Between the Lines:

Nice choice! That stick looks great!

I haven't decided yet when to smoke them, but I think at some point this weekend at least one of them will burn.

Another BTL lover. I got one left after this one. Im on the waiting list at a B&M when they come in. I'm stocking up this time!!

KillerCelt · 11-25-2010, 12:57 PM

I would join you gentlemen if not for two things:
1. It's really cold and rainy/windy
2. I hardly have any smokes that would count as "rare"

However, all of these pictures are making my mouth water.

massphatness · 11-25-2010, 01:03 PM

I like the idea Brooks. Took a nice pic of a 96 RyJ CF this AM, but my youngest son has decided to "upgrade" our wireless router and I'm currently without internet access on my laptop. Will post a pic when things are back to normal.

Here's the RyJ CF - tiny bit of wrapper damage on it, but smoked well

And here's a mid-60's Punch Super Selection #192 - this one was absolutely delicious!

cort · 11-28-2010, 07:11 PM

Nice Vinny!

Sweet touch with the "c@ck" napkin

hscmit · 11-25-2010, 02:12 PM

Although this punch is not a "rare" cigar at all it is/was very special as it was given to me by my then future mother-in-law at the first Christmas Jess and I spent together 7yrs ago. It was one of a three pack she picked out for me and I always thought it was very nice of her. Smoked it in the chilly mountain air and enjoyed every second of it

Devanmc · 11-25-2010, 02:41 PM

Not exactly rare but will be smoking a CAO american anthem later tonight

Conch Republican · 11-25-2010, 02:52 PM

Lit up an Opus Rising X...awesome aroma - good body, just didnt want to stay lit/burn evenly. Thats ok - I still feel it is one I wouldnt typically smoke, so thanks for the idea Brooks.
If I am feeling better tomorrow or Sat, I might get another one that I have been saving, but havent had a particular reason to smoke.

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone (and if you dont celebrate, then enjoy your Thursday!)

14holestogie · 11-25-2010, 03:56 PM

Halfway through a DPG Firecracker. I knew it was going to be a little powerhouse, so it kept getting replaced in the humi after grabbing it a number of times in the year or two I've had it. Today, after getting uncomfortably stuffed, I figured it was now or never to try to settle the stomach.

So far, not snorkable by any means, but doing the job on the indigestion.

A nice, almost hour-long 3 inch smoke.

Viaje Exclusivo Robusto is what I smoked today. I made it 75% through and it started raining like no other. Some luck, still a great stick and I enjoyed it as much as I could.
