    Tonight I smoked the final cigar, a Troya Classico. Starts off with sweet spice notes. About a half inch in there were very pronounced peanut flavors. Never tasted this in a cigar yet so it was interesting. Still sweet spice flavors in the middle, peanut flavor still there but not as strong...

    Just finished smoking a Rocky Patel Vintage '92 Started off nice with wood and coffee flavors. Burn was slightly uneven right off the bat. Flavor also had a hint of sweetness. In the middle the sweetness was lost but the wood and coffee flavors remained. Burn was still uneven, needed quite a...

    How many visits to your local B&M before you are considered a regular?

    How many roads must a man walk down, before you can call him a man? ;)

    Change of habit

    I go through the same thing when the seasons change. In summer I smoke more frequently, so obviously they can't all be amazing smokes. But in the winter, I smoke way less often so I smoke higher quality cigars.

    Newb Adpotion Reviews (Sep. 08)

    I am smoking the Cienfuegos right now. Started mainly with leather/earthy flavor. Some nuttiness and a hint of cedar (the cigar comes cedar wrapped). Fairly strong flavors but the cigar was still smooth. More into the cigar I got hints of cocoa. A complex cigar. The middle picked up in the...

    I know these are a little behind but I've got two reviews ready. First up is the Ashton Cabinet. (PC size I think) Right off the bat this cigar starts with lots of nutty and toasty flavors. Very rich flavors. Pretty even burn throughout, also the flavor remained very consistent. A little bit...

    The last cigar of the month is the Nub Cameroon. Once again I had a little difficulty lighting the cigar. Once I got it going I got woody flavors with some sweet spice. Typical of most other cameroons I have smoked. The middle was sweeter with some coffee flavors. Ending was spicier and a...

    The next smoke is the Savinelli Liga Especial. This cigar started off with a rich nutty flavor, with some spice (more of a cinnamon like than pepper) and a hint of cedar. A little later on it gained just a hint of sweetness on the finish as well. The flavor kept the nutty core but gained...

    Noob Adoption Reviews (July '08)

    Last night I smoked the Oliva Ovation Maduro. Lit up and was greeted with mellow coffee flavors. Typical maduro flavors but very smooth and a little milder. Great draw, with lots of smoke. A little bit of cedar flavors in the middle and just a bit of pepper near the end of the cigar. Burn was...
