I smoke another cigar from the CFCF Fun Box 2008. This one was interesting. It spewed out a nasty pile of tar. The cigar still tasted good but where I cut the cigar at looked like I had just dumped the juices from a pipe I just smoked onto the cigar.
I dread the day when I encounter tar buildup, but if it I were able to smoke an Opus in the process I can't say that I'd be disappointed.
I've not had a cigar in about four days. Damn cold!! :angry:
I havent had one in a month!
Just smoked a Tatuaje Noella Reserva from the latest release and wow was it impressive! This was a very complex smoke that changed as I smoked it down to the nub.
The first 1/4 really reminded me of a La Riqueza probably since it uses the same wrapper leaf. After that I was hit with a very similiar flavor like a J21 with a suble sweet cocoa flavor from the connecticut broadleaf wrapper. Then around the halfway mark I was hit with that awesome Tat Frank flavor I was really expecting out of this cigar. Lots of sweet cocoa/chocolate flavor with that earthy Tatuaje backbone that kept me wanting more with each puff. That flavor lasted till I couldn't hold the cigar anymore.
Highly recommended if you can find them. :thumbs:
