Headed off to the local cigar shop -- pizza, beer, 60" HD TV, and a well-stocked, well-ventilated place to have some good stogies for the game. But first, let me say...
That was, without a doubt, the best superbowl I've seen in recent memory. An incredible game fought well by both sides. I really thought we were going to see the first overtime in superbowl history, then Vinetari has to finally make a kick... grrrr... Still, a kick-ass game.
We had a little mini-herf going on. In brief, I had:
Añejo Shark No.77 -- great smoke as always, awesome taste, and quite smooth
Opus X Super Belicoso -- nothing like a little spice and buzz from an Opus to get things rolling; was awesome
Padrón Millennium maduro -- absolutely wonderful as always, smooth, sweet, deep, rich
VSG Spellbound -- had draw problems, then burn inconsistencies (canoeing), it was okay until about halfway through when it got too bitter; put it out at about halfway through, disappointed
Bolivar Belicosos Finos (ISOM) -- had this baby snipped and ready to go, thought I would smoke it for overtime, and it really looked like the game was going into OT, then Venitari ruins it all
Anyway, all of them were great smokes except the VSG, which was a major letdown. Given that I had the same experience with the VSG Torpedo, but a wonderful time with the Enchantment, I'm not sure what to think now.
My friend had an Añejo Shark No.77, Opus X Super Belicoso, then a Perdomo Edicion de Silvio -- he loved them all, but in order, his preference was: Añejo, Perdomo, Opus. He prefers a milder smoke, but really enjoyed all of them a great deal, and had a hard time putting them in order.
