Yea, it was in my latest box too... It was a nice smoke. Even burn and smooth draw. Flavor was good, just wish I could have tasted more... But my nasal was still full of dirt dust and grass dust from scalping my grass for the last time of the year... It was a beautiful evening sitting back and BS'n with my buddy... Man the moon was bright too!
I've been "looking" at those candela ci on gars for some time now. Would you compare it to a Connecticut? I had a aturo fuente that I found in one of the coolidors from a couple years back. Figured it was time. Now, I can't remember the name but it was probably 8 X 50 or 52 (maybe even 54) and began with a "C" on the wrapper. Maybe I can dig it out of the trash. Anyway, the cigar itself was not an easy on to keep lit. This may have been to over humidification but none of my other cigars act the same was. Also, I think it was a fumas as the ash wouldn't stay on very long....not even close to and inch. Lots of smoke and the taste was typical fuente....not bad. But, I had it while in the shack and the smoke was so overwhelming, I opened the windows and then the door to get rid of that danged smoke. It was the offensive stale disgusting smoke you get from cigars that lingers and lingers. Definitely a cigar for the outdoors only; I only got 1/3 done and am not looking forward to the re-light.
It was an Arturo Fuente Canones 8 x 52 and doesn't say anything about mixed filler or fumas. What's left of it will be used for a minnow trapping excursion!
I don’t know, don’t really get into Connecticut… It smoked well… and had good flavor… I know what it wasn’t… it wasn’t full body or madero … Maybe it was a fluke… but the Acid one he gave me wasn’t my cup of tea… but I’d consider looking at getting some to try again…
Well.......... I finally finished this one last night. I had re-lit this on both Tue and again on Wed and was surprised that the re-light was just as good as the initial light up of it. I think the only other time I experienced that was with a hemingway short story. What I didn't like was that it kept going out on me all three nights.
Howdy fellas! I really wish these sites would be better with notifications. Anyway, just got a delivery of some Acid cigarillos. They were out of my Frenchies I like, but these are all good too.
I bought a box of Red Lion Cheroots for my cousin & he decided he didn’t really care fir them so I have been having one occasionally. They really aren’t too bad.
I also bought a 60 pack of Sweet Banditos, I have only had one of them but it was a nice smoke for just messing around. I got them for $22, I didn’t think that was too bad.
I didn't care for the red lion cheroots myself. Also got a box of them a few years back. I'll have one or two a year
