quickme Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Smoked this Bandi bombed by@craftsman . Not a bad start to it but after the half way mark I started to get an acrylic / turpentine note to it. Had to pitch it. As bad as that is I'd smoke it fishing or camping Bacchus, taxedman, cigar_puffer and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craftsman Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 So I finally got the memo and dug some NCs out of the cabinet.This Padron Londres has had about three years rest and they still have a very spicey bite to them. Settled down after the first third and the dark chocolate flavours that I like so much are coming through much better. Hugh smoke for a little stick and definately box worthy.

kidvett Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 An LFD DL-660 Maduro this evening. Quite an impressive cigar in it's 4 x 60 size....must say I was a bit scared as LFD are strong cigars. But I had it aging for 5 yrs & it did wonders....balanced blended flavors of dried fruits-raisins with a hint of sweetness over a Woody core. To my surprise no Pepper !! which is unusual for an LFD. Did nub it after 1 1/2 hour as it was that good.... GrouchoMarx, quickme, Bacchus and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAC Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Cigar #3 is a Psyko Seven Maduro. Boy this is starting out boring. I hope it picks up or it may get pitched early haha. Only a touch of maduro sweetness from the wrapper and that's about it. Great performance and tons of smoke though.

BRAC Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Cigar #4 was a Don Tomas Nicaragua from earlier today. Best of the week so far. A nice creamy cigar with a savory wood core and a vanilla like sweetness. One dimensional, but still enjoyable.

Craftsman Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 So I have@bacchus to blame, er thank! for this AB Maxx. Big honking stick that has a lot of the Black Market profile without the spice. Smooth with huge thin smoke and strong choco hints. No real change from start to finish but still a good stick. I like maduros and this was a nice change tonight. Thanks buddy.

kidvett Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Great Oliva O No 4 this evening, basic tobacco flavors & strong but enjoyable... I'll resupply on those as they'll be part of next winter's regulars...

wd123 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 so my contribution to NC week is the following: a Cigar Bodega 15th anniversary cigar in Robusto From their website: Quote  Celebrating Cigar Bodega's 15th Anniversary we are proud to release a truly unique cigar! Made in small batches by a true Artisan Master Blender in Nicaragua, the Cigar Bodega 15th Anniversary is a one of a kind smoke! Using well cured, blended and aged tobaccos this cigar offers a reddish brown oily wrapper, that houses an abundance of flavour with no harsh aftertaste! Wrapper: Sungrown Ecuadorian Habano Binder: Ecuadorian Broadleaf Filler: Jalapa, Condega, Estelli Sizes Available: Belicorto (4x52), Robusto (5x52) & Toro (6x54)  I took a few notes as I was smoking this one. Burn time: 1h 25 min (had been stored in my humi @ 64% humidity for 5 months) Firm, even packed smooth wrapper. Pre light: Dry hay, sweetness and coco Lit: Thick smoke, flavours of grassy hay, coco on the retro with a slightly spicy finish. It burned well, I didn't have any issues besides needing to relight it after I set it down for too long once when nature called. (My fault, not the cigars) I dunno if I would buy more of these. The flavour was not my favourite, but it performed excellent. If any of you are interested in their house blends I recommend their 18th reserve cigar, it tastes like leather and cedar!    Please excuse the shit formatting, I am still getting used to the new site!

jazie Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Relaxing after dinner with a casa Fernandez anniversaire 2014. I really dig these, full on nuttiness and a bit of dry hay like a cohiba. Only issue is I find them all to be very loose draw which I am not a fan of. Then again maybe I am just used to half plugged cubans haha Rye, Craftsman, mcicvara and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
