Daily Smokes 3/26/05

[CoventryCat86]

This is something I've seen on other cigar sites, a thread called "Daily Smokes." Today was a four cigar day for me:

San Cristobal de la Habana El Principe
Opus X "A"
Saint Luis Rey Serie A
Padron 1926 #6

More than usual. the last three were during tonight's card game. We played set back, nine games, I won seven. I wish we were playing for money

 

[KayakinBoy]

nice, just had a me a padron maduro. 4000 I think... Tommorrow will bring nice smokes!

 

[JimK]

I smoked a JR Habanito and a Party short. A pretty humble day compared to some of you guys I'm sure...

This was a far above normal day for me. I usually have one or two a day, with one or both usually being more "inexpensive" smokes but Saturday was an exception because of the card game.

I had a 858 Maduro. Pretty tasty. :thumbs:

Had two sticks yesterday (typical for me on a weekend day)

Flor de Oliva Grand Cameroon- This box pressed Nicaraguan was a bit tight on the draw. Until the halfway point, I was unimpressed, but it did finish well.

After a nice steak, I rounded out my day with a Puros Indios Pyramidie #3. I really like this one (got a box on cigarauctioneer for $40!). Draws very easily with LOTS of creamy smoke. This one burned very evenly (not all of these have). I really like this one as a daily smoke.

I had a Bolivar Corona Jr. It has been in my humi for over 6 months. It was a pretty good cigar, not as good as a RASCC, but close.

I have been smoking CONSUEGRA # 70 Mads as my everyday smoke and find them a really good smoke and a steal at a buck apiece. Except for some irregular looking caps, the construction looked fine. They burned and smoked fine.

Hey Jim, I thought all you had in the humi was...

Well... here's a little sob story for you...

I have 25 Thompson Dog Rockets in my humi.
These things really suck!

LOL

 

[Tenpin]

Sorry to have misled you... I do (did) have those dog rockets (gave most of them away to a desparate neighbor!). But my humi holds 125... those dogs weren't too lonely!

 

[AaronFromPA]

Today I brought a Bahia B-line B2 to work (this is my normal daily smoke right now do to price) and I have a Casa Torano at home waiting.

 

[preembargo]

I'm about to light up a Zino Mouton Cadet Torp, but usually I have something mild on the drive in to work like a Butera RV Dolce Fuma and on the drive home maybe a Sancho Panza Double Maddie.

BTW Tenpin, nicely played. Remind me to stay out of the Texas Holdem Room if you're in there!

I am getting ready to light up a padron Fumas...for those of you who haven't tried this little known gem, I highly suggest it. I know that they aren't as wonderful as a premium smoke, but at less than 2 bucks a stick, they are a hidden treasure, plus, do to their strange look (completely unfinished) they always get a good conversation going. When I found them at the local place here in chatt-town, I bought every one I could get my hands on. No better cigar under the 3 dollar mark in my book.

 

[ggiese]

Had a RASS and a LA100 today... Gonna be hard to top that!! :thumbs:

 

[bfreebern]

VSG Enchantment
Cohiba Esplendido

 

[NorCalCigarLover]

Opus X #4

 

[tone-ny]

Saturday had a Cusano Corojo. On Sunday had a Fuenete Funete Opus X.

 

[Marito]

Easter saw a Padron 1926 #6 Natural (incredible)
Today will be visited by a Padron 1964 Monarca Maduro

LOL!!!! Sorry dude...Hopefully, you and kyackinboy will be able to come to my show in two weeks and after that, we'll break in the shack proper...at that time I will pay the piper! A Fumas or two is the least I can do for you getting me to sign up on this board. :blush:

When I first got on the Fuma train they were always out. Knox cigar has them alot, but that's a long drive. Maybe a local box split is in order.
