What Did You Smoke Today

Natural by DE Root
CAO Criollo (great flavor, draw was way too easy, not tight enough)
 
Waiting for a saleswoman to arrive at the office, I'm enjoying a Partagas Black Classico. I want to make sure the office has that wonderful aroma when she gets here.

(She sells radio air-time, they never have a sense of humor. This should be fun.) :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
I had a Cusano 18 double Connecticut robusto. Creamy delicious! I had a really nice draw, the ash was a light grey, burn was even. It went out once (about 3/4 a way down.) This is one of my new favorites.
 
Yes that Cusano 18 is a crowd pleaser. No matter what you usually smoke it seems that everyone likes them.

I smoked a dry el cobre last night. The situation in my desktop is starting to become critical at 59% Pretty soon I will be calling in reinforcments.
 
I am smoking a Bolivar tubed robusto. Pretty decent cigar. I picked it up yesterday. It tastes a lot like a diploma, but 4 dollars cheaper. Ill have to pick up a few more. Nice oily dark wrapper, and wonderful aroma. The finish is very nice, sort of a funky chocolate flavor.
 
Sweet Mother of Mercy I had the WORST stick ever tonight!!! And I mean WOW it was bad. A Pueblo Dominicano Torpedo, and I cannot get rid of the awful taste!

There must be something wrong with that stick; I have 3 more I'm going to try after a long while of aging (sure I am).

I toasted and lit that puppy and she smacked me square in the mouth with a taste that can only be compared to smoking metal shavings. An absolutely rancid sensation. I washed my mouth, got some coffee and ate a small piece of bread, thinking that I must have made a mistake and it was just a one time occurance.

I hit that evil stick again and hit it me back harder. The taste was almost like sticking my tongue on a 9 volt battery. I can still taste it and I have brushed my teeth twice and eaten dinner.

Wow.
 
I've been off since Thanksgiving...first day back to work...
I've been bad (according to my wife :lol: )
Smoked alot of camachos...corojos and coyolars
yummy :D
 
Robert:

I had the same one yesterday - I really liked the draw on that one. Glad you enjoyed it!
 
C10 robusto. Fabulous as always.

A CAO Sopranos Associate. Beautiful oily toothy wrapper. Had a strong leathery prelight aroma (then again there is leather in the box). Lots of thick billowy smoke rich with a woody aroma. Was not as full bodied as I was expecting but up pretty high. Had a nice peppery cedar flavor throughout most but then turned to a nice nutty flavor about 4 inches in.

It was very good but for the $10-$14 tag I can get two or three others that I like just as much. I definitely won't be buying the box at that price. :shock:
 
Alright Quagmire, spill the beans. Where did you get them? I agree with the taste you described, and the price is a bit high. But I am looking to buy a whole box of these. I'll call Cigar.com today and see when they are going to get these, if at all.
 
Capt did you score that box or any singles from Cigar.com?

Dbrad, what did you think of the Reo?

I was going to call today to see if you guys had started stocking them. So I guess I can just ask you here. Are you?
 
I smoked a CAO Cameroon that I had sitting in the bottom of the humidor for a few months. I only thought they were good before. I have a few more that I bought a few days ago. I may let them sit for a while.

I also smoked one of the CAO Sopranos yesterday. They are good, but I think they could sit in the humidor for a while too and get a lot better.
 
Where did you guys get these, and where can I get information on them?
 
I called Cigar.com today for the skinny on the Soprano's. They do have them in stock, I ordered 5 singles. I am seriously considering a box, just because it looks so damn cool!!
 
Ya, the cady trunk is awesome! Its perfect for the theme;)

Whats the price range on those sticks? CAO is prolly my fav cigar producer, so naturally I want to give them a try.

I got them at my local shop. Can't you find them at your's?
 
Syntax, 10-14 at my shop.

Bobberrific, they've been on the market for a little while now. They've just been backordered everywhere. I heard they relaunched them with something different but I'm not sure though.
