Doug (dccraft)...

An amazing cigar called Excalibur Legend Crusader (5.5x45). Simply wowed me this afternoon. I rec'vd this fine stick from Doug in the Simple PIF a number of months back and figured its rested way too long at 60RH. I can only describe it as very creamy w/medium nut and cracked pepper flavor during the first half, and the nut/cracked pepper flavor taking more of a background during the second half to a dense cream flavor and lite caramel notes. Medium finish, white and straight ash, medium-full body strength.

Gotta try the robusto' now

Thanks again Doug for the wonderful PIF. It really made my afternoon out here in SoCal...

DPD6030.

A 5 Vegas Miami churchill. Absolute boatloads of smoke, perfect draw, perfect burn, great flavors.

Aren't these the ones DPG makes for 5V?

Thank You, Andrew!

02 LGC MdO #3 from Fissure.

I'm still lamenting the untimely end of the Upmann above but Steve's stick helps take some of the sting out.

Thx Steve!

Yesterday I had an Original Famous X Label (which has morphed into the Famous 3k). The cello was yellowed and the wrapper had sparkles when held up to the sun. Very good smoke. Thanks WAYNE123.
