    I definitely want a report back on your thoughts of that cigar.

    This was actually a pretty good cigar for the first 2/3, I let it go out & relit later, something was a bit wonky in the last 1/3 but maybe it was just because I didn’t snip it. I will have a better report when I can smoke the whole thing.

    It was good. Good clean easy smoke with decent flavor. Course I’m still getting acclimated to what I like. But it was consistent and smoked it to as small as I could hold

    I had to do a bit of fishing on this one to get things moving along.

    You didn’t think the sweetened tip was a bit overwhelming?

    Happy wife, happy life. :thumbs:

    Well,,I had my first Diesel this evening after supper.

    Beautiful evening, very light breeze around 60*
    This was a very flavorful cigar.

    I bought a bundle of these 2-3 years back when thompson still had them. Very very good! I think I have 15 left now. I liked them as soon as I got them and they are even better than I remember now. One of those "I wish I had ordered more right away" moments. (maduro)

    I liked this one so much I am trying to buy a box of them. I am thinking they can sit for a year or two & be even better.
