Absolutely love a good cigar in the evening particularly with a glass of cognac or good Port. Making me want to get back into them
No, not that. More like a un-natural uniform consistent rich and dark almost giving the appearance of dyed or sprayed on. Don't know how to explain it. I got some cigars a few years back with maduro wrappers (of course) and could not believe the rich darkness of the wrapper. Upon researching reviews of it, I read some complaints and suggestions that the wrappers were dyed or sprayed. People were complaining about the colorization remaining on their fingers just from holding it..... Cigar 101: Dyed Maduro Wrappers - Are Companies Cutting Corners? - (bestcigarprices.com)
Last night I enjoyed a Cohiba Red Dot & gave my sister’s BIL a Legends Black Lonsdale by Drew Estate, he really enjoyed it. While we were sitting there bs’ing & having our cigars, his 91yo mother told him she wanted to try it so she took 2-3 puffs. He was kinda of surprised but diligently handed it over. I just kind of chuckled.
Do you need a new cutter or do you insist on using a hacksaw on them? I had this one tonight. I think it is my last one.....6 X 60. By the time I got to the last third, the tip looked the same as Chvymn99 trademark chewed on!
I am having one of these this evening, I was after a Charter Oak but grabbed this one instead. I need to get into my RP 1990’s since they were some of the first cigars I bought but keep forgetting.
I am taking these in my to go box this morning. After 3-4 months resting time I am liking these vanilla cigars a lot more, the vanilla is a lot more pronounced. It’s a nice occasional change up.
I had one of these last evening while sitting on the deck and playing "parchisi" (anyone remember that board game?) It was real good and I am looking forward to the next time I have one. Only difference was that this time I really took my time with it.
