Last night I had a Saint Luis Rey Serie A. This is a wondeful cigar with leather and mocha flavors. It's very subtle but well worth the effort. 4/6 smoke rings already from a box of 06's.
Yesterday, Kingston Cigar Shop, my local B&M, was having its 10th anniversary. I was given a Perdomo Sungrown with some age to it that was awesome. I followed that up with an Edge Torpedo Maduro. I like that cigar even though I end up with brown stains on my fingers from the "oils". After that, a friend generously gifted me a Padron 1926 No.9 Natural that was tremendous! I won a huge Ashton ashtray to top it off. Great day!
Today, I'm currently smoking a Nicaraguan San Cristobal Guajiro. When you see these at the B&M, you have to give them a try. Pepin making cigars for Ashton...it's a great combination!

Somewhere down in Texas
Ashton VSG
Just smoked an Ashton VSG belasco (perfecto). Was able to get about 65min. and smoked the little hussie down to the nub. It is quickly becoming my favorite smokes next to a LGC serie R. I can't like them too much though, my bank account won't stand for too many VSGs. Pretty pricey! :shocked:
Anyway, thats what Dustin smoked today!

almost done with a RP Signature. Good burn, draw and taste, and it's only been in the humi for a couple of days! Couldn't resist any longer. A very pleasing cigar with a great aroma. And sine I won it on cigar bid a great price too!!! :thumbsup:
This morning I had a Gurkha legend which I was not thrilled with (unlike the last one I had) and tonight I finished off a RP sun grown toro..... which I like every time!

Lost in translation
Today I just enjoyed a Cuestra Rey Sun Grown Toro (I think its the no. 60). Nice medium to full bodied flavor. Pretty smooth, draw was good, burn was ok; only 1 touch up. 3 out of 6
Today I had a RP olde world reserve...it had some burning problems, it was a workout keeping it lit...
Also had a 5Vegas (thats a surprise there...my favorite smokes thus far) Limitada 2006...very nice smoke, with a very complex flavor that changed several times on me....i would smoke that again...i would say best smoke I've had lately...

I just finished a cigar I hadn't had in quite a while, the 5 Vegas Serie A Torpedo. This box has been resting in my humidor for well over a year now and the time has done them good. Not a lot of complexity, but that doesn't bother me at all. It just had good, straightforward maduro flavors. Little bit of sweetness, great tobacco flavor, and a perfect draw and burn. Great cigar.
Ready to head out the door and take the dog for a long walk - have a Carlos Torano Casa Torano Maduro Robusto along for the walk!
i smoked a camacho havanna today. this is left over from the one day deal a while back.
...4 or 5 months? maybe 6 ?
