Had a few smokes while watching football at the club this afternoon....
Opus X Chili Pepper (2002, 5" x 55) -- A shame to clip the curved cap off of this cigar, but it can't be smoked otherwise! Despite the name, I wouldn't say this cigar is any spicier than your average Opus with a few years of age on it. <Insert characteristic Opus flavors here> The finish when it reached the thinner part of the cigar was epic; I borrowed a toothpick for that.
Padrón 1964 Anniversary Maduro Torpedo (2003, 6" x 52) -- Padrón Anniversaries are cigars that just always burn wonderful and smoke consistently well. I hadn't had a 1964 maduro in a while, so I figured I'd spark this one up. Lovely cigar, hints of nuts, coffee, carmel --- and burned like a dream.
Bolivar Corona Junior (2003, 4 3/8" x 42) -- These little Cuban gems are great short smokes. Full of earthy, spicy flavors with a wonderful cane sugar hint of sweetness that makes you want to smoke it to the nub. So I did. Yummy!
Didn't have a single bad smoke today, except the fake Cohiba Siglo VI that I puffed on briefly just to confirm my suspicions. It actually wasn't a bad cigar; but it definitely wasn't a Cuban Cohiba; tasted low-end Dominican to me. And the Packers game had a killer finnish too!
