roasterdave Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I haven't been on the forum for a coons age but got on tonight and saw this topic so I thought I'd post something. An Alec Bradley Connecticut Robusto that I picked up in NOTL this past winter. A quality stick with a great draw and even burn. A little mild with nice vanilla flavor and hint of nuts.

jazie Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 DE Undercrown with some Fortress rum tonight... I just tried that fortress last weekend, what do you think of it? I thought it was a little rough around the edges but not bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacchus Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 You are right about being a little "rough around the edges" but it's still the best Canadian Rum I've had, by far!It has pretty good maple/vanilla notes to it.I'd buy it again...Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk jazie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craftsman Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I just picked up a 5'er of those UC shade cigars. glad to see you enjoying one!how did you like it? I have a bunch from a buy by@quickme and they are OK. Much prefer the Undercrown Viva Corona. They are all good outdoor work sticks as they burn perfectly and never seen to need a relight while producing huge smoke for the skeeters.

Craftsman Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 All right. Friday night of NC week. Trying to step it up a notch with a Padron 1964 Anni maduro and some Glenkinchie '12. It's working for me. [emoji2] Terrence, Cisco, gk404 and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cisco Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Ending the week with a CAO Concert. So far it's a decent smoke, though nothing too exciting.. Let's see how this develops. roasterdave, Bacchus, mcicvara and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanchez Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Finally able to get another smoke in this week with a Tatuaje Pudgy. Great construction, excellent burn but pretty one dimensional. Rye, Burtess, mcicvara and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craftsman Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I believe@quickme is reponsible for this Illusione Epernay. Interesting stick that seems to get better the more scotch I drink. I think there might be an alogorythem (spelling while drinking) involved in this process. Anyone heard from@eddy_bullpoo lately?[emoji12] gk404, Rye, jazie and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickme Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 i'd like to thank everyone that participated in NC Week. Like years past I enjoy reading everyone's take on certain sticks and adding to my ever growing list of sticks to try. I was going to post another stick yesterday but somehow from my Humi to my car I misplaced my La Imperiosa stick!!! Its still missing!!!!! That stick has been one of my favorites this year. If you haven't tried one TRY IT! Image a fruit and nut cadbury bar. Missing stick... If found please PM Craftsman, Sanchez, jazie and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikeycoffee Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Is it too late to reply? So I've only been having NCs the past week and tonight I had the amazing La Palina Goldie Laguito Especial. A lancero styled stick, the story behind it is pretty amazing. Normally my taste experiences with a cigar don't match up to the usual Halfwheel review, but with regards to this stick - bang on to HW - nutty coffee crema espresso sweet sweet mild mellow goodness. Sassafras like tastes in the middle. Just fantastic right to the end. I'd post a longer review, but tbh, Halfwheel's review mirrors most of my experience (linked above). What a great cigar. Too bad I only have four (3 now)! Rye, mcicvara, Craftsman and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
