Courtesy of av8tor152d and the August lottery comes the La Imperiosa by Crowned Heads in a toro size. This cigar is new to me and my first impressions are box worthy.

Draw - easy draw and full oscuro pepper and coffee mouth flavors.
Flavor - see above
Burn - perfect

Great cigar!

Humidor diving and I knew I had this Cigar buried in the back and it’s a good six or seven years old so time to light up this Don Pepin Blue Torpedo. I’m not sure why but I suspect it’s amonia coming off the cigar as it ages but the DPG Blue that were older always had the label coloring fade. I took a second picture to record the phenomenon.

Pulling off the cellophane was more like peeling a banana to get it out and the aroma was the same old barnyard manure so not much has changed in this cigar. I sneezed four times so Pepper is there.

Burns great.
Tastes only a bit tempered and I get a tangy coffee like dark espresso with a long finish of burnt cedar. This cigar hasn’t mellowed much in all this time and that doesn’t surprise me as that’s pretty much been my experience with the DPG cigars.

I’ve smoked boxes of these bad boys but due to so many great cigars, this one has been forgotten. It’s nice to pull it out and remember the cigar that put Don Pepin on the map.

Late 90's El Credito small churchill. Finally the aging has yielded yummy goodness.

I had a Camacho Criollo the other day. Not bad. I had a Camacho Corojo prior and it was bad. Well, at least I didn't enjoy it.

Room 101 Daruma Papi Chulo. Guys who took over the local B&M have a couple boxes and are selling 'em for $6 a pop. Hadn't smoked one in a few years, I figured WTF. Didn't like it as much as I liked them fresh.

Smoked my first Casa Cuba last night and at first was a little underwhelmed. It reminded me of a King/Queen B with slight differences. I enjoyed it more and more as it progressed though, and it produced some of the best smelling smoke in a cigar I've ever had. Not box worthy for me, but definitely need a few of these around.
