Gurkha Black Dragon Fury Gran Torpedo-some flavor but not anything like the nublizer-tho I still have a head cold.

Gurkha Havana Blend robusto- good but light on flavor (at least today)
 
STARTED OFF WITH A DON CARLOS 3 as allways then a liga 9, ate easter dinner a not so good prime rib, had an opus x figurado , went to charbucks and am finishing the day with an anjo churchill, with a glrnmorangie sherry finished 12yo scotch and coffee, good night all
 
Cu-Avana Intensus robusto- 3rd try and the last. Not a bad smoke-just not good enough.

Honduran Factory Corojos gran corona- about my 90th try, not as good as they seemed to be a couple of years ago (same batch). Will not restock them-still have about 10 left.

Omar Ortiz Originals Honduran Maduro robusto grande- 2nd try and perhaps the last. decent cigar but just not my type.
 
I had the Diesel Hair of the Dog earlier. I got this from a smoking buddy last week and it's not nearly as strong as their other offerings. I'm smoking a La Palinnas now that I got when I was in Indy. Very good strong stick that makes up for the weakness of that Diesel. I'd have to say that the Omar Ortez was a decent smoke to me Tony, not great but decent.
 
I'm sure I have, I'm just not sure of the brands that come from Costa Rica. Smoked a Kristoff GC tonight, very good strong smoke.
 
Smoked the Brazilia Carnivale earlier. I bought a few of these y'day to try them. It was a pretty good smoke for a first cigar of the day. Moving on to the HC Habano²
 
Pleiades Cruzeros Saturne - mild to a fault-burned well is about the best I can say about this 8x46 cigar.

Joya Del Jefe toro- A favorite work cigar a couple of years ago, but this one didn't do much for me while moving wood.

Spring may be coming tomorrow and I'll try to sit and smoke a good cigar
 
Swag Infamous toro- Nice appearance but not near perfect, burned well and even. Pretty good smoke but little flavor. Not going to my favorites list.
 
Enjoyed a Fonseca Classic 5-50 but what made it better was the people I was with.

A cigar is as good as memories that you have when you smoked it.

El Mejor Emerald toro- showed some promise

Verderado Organic Toro-rather mild, well constructed and some touches of flavor.
 
VSOP Connecticut toro- a one time favorite that wasn't too great this AM.

Nestor Miranda Dopplebok robusto- mild sweet tobacco flavor- I liked it

Gurkha Blue Steel torpedo- my next to least favorite Gurkha
 
Smoked a few of the Fink's offerings from my kayaking buddy y'day during the Operation Angler Strength tourney. Man, that wind wiped me out. I woke up feeling pretty bad this morning. Smoking the first one of the day just now at nearly 6pm!¡! It's another CAO Brazilia Carnivale. I may go after a Liga Privada UF-13 later.
 
Rocky Patel Sun Grown. Started with roasted almond flavors and now has black coffee flavors. Good cigar.

Nice day here today, but too much spring work left to do.

La Estrella Cubana 'E' toro- first try didn't wow me.

Joya del Jefe toro- work cigar -worked ok for splitting wood.

Sancho Panza box press natural toro- an old friend still pretty good after aging.

Victor Sinclair Box-pressed Maduro Doppel Gordo- started out with a terrible taste, but it faded away and showed a little promise. 70 ring monster.

Cuba Libra Epicure toro-sfter dinner for the clean up and a couple of more split logs. Not great, but only 5 hours after arrival. 4 more to test.
 
Cibao robusto, Hoyo natural toro, Joya Del Jefe, honduran factory corojo gran corona, Punch maduro double corona and a Gurkha Status torpedo natural.
 
La Caya Connecticut churchill - not very good
Joya Del Jefe toro - while burning twigs and small limbs.
