Out of curiosity, Tim, I always see the Undercrown box in the background on the table. Do you use it for something or is it just a nice backdrop for the photo?

Out of curiosity, Tim, I always see the Undercrown box in the background on the table. Do you use it for something or is it just a nice backdrop for the photo?

It has actually has two uses. Since we moved to a smaller place I have less shelves for my cigar paraphernalia, so like the bearded dude's satchel in The Hangover, it's where I keep my things. Get a lot of compliments on it. Indiana Jones has one :stogie:

The other thing is I use it as insulation between the 500 degree tabletop and my drinks. It's so hot down here that I don't even like putting my iced drinks on the table, let alone a liquor neat. So that particular photo actually kind of shows my other use for it.

I've heard people compare to/hazard a guess that it was originally banded as the Camacho Liberty 2007. Wondering if you have smoked one of those and what your opinion may be on the matter.

I've heard the same rumors but I can't say I've had the opportunity to smoke a 2007 Liberty.

To be honest, this is my first Caldwell, so I don't have any others to compare it to. It is delicious and I'm enjoying it very much! I will certainly be trying some more Caldwell's in the future.

That is native Beebalm (Monarda sp.) in the background. It certainly does attract the bees! All kinds of bumblebees, but they are harmless and prolific pollinators.

Digging around I found a cigar that I had never tried. An original release Pepin made Ortega Cubao from 2008 or so. I didn't measure it but I would call it a Churchill size. Loving it so far, well into the second third.

And...most have smoked a lot of them.

A fresh take on a Padron...how did you like this one ?

I usually stick with less-expensive sticks. Point of diminishing return and all that. I sprang for an LP9 at the local B&M based on all of the rave reviews I'd read and while it was good, I didn't find it to be very special. I'm not racing out to buy any more of them.

With the understanding that the 1000 series is their "budget" offering, this Padron was still one of the best tasting cigars I have ever smoked. The draw was quite loose and the burn was a little wonky but the flavor profile was fantastic. Earth, chocolate, cream, with a little pepper and coffee in there is what I was getting. And very smooth.

I bought a sampler that includes some of the 1926's and 1964's. After smoking the 6000, I'm really looking forward to trying those!

[OldSkoolTarHeel]

I did in fact follow through with smoking the new Viaje Ten Ton Tess. It was fan-fucking-tastic!!! One of the best from Viaje I've had, and some of you know how far my Viaje whoredom really goes. I'm kicking myself for not having purchased a full jar.

Smoked this very early this morning, for me it was late night...finished the cigar at about four AM.
It had finally cooled down far enough due to heavy rain that I could smoke on front porch. Second of this line I've smoked, have two more sitting in the Humidor, could see the HR's being a daily smoke if... and it's a big IF, they were less pricey.
HR By Cubanacan Belicoso Dark Natural 5 1/2 x 52.

2007 Macanudo Hyde Park. Last of a few from this year. Age suits it well, very smooth, but I prefer the old Jamaica Macs and their distinctive sweetness that's never been present in the Dominican made sticks. Still good though.

Hi Bob,

It's too bad that the entire Jamaican cigar industry blew up. Macanudo, Mario Palomino, Royal Jamaican and Flor de Jamaica were some nice sticks

By 1982 my wife covered my store more than anyone and she was (remains) trusting of everyone. I didn't smoke a lot of Macs because they were too dear for a poor tobacconist but we were going through a lot of Prince Philips (~$2.00 in those days :)) but no one remembered selling them except a few to an older man (~70) who only chewed them (like chaw, into a horrible looking sticky and soaking mess). This guy wore enough jewelry to make Tiffanys blush.

One day he paid for a single cigar but he'd pocketed 6 more and I caught him red-handed. I held him and called Mall Security. He was stunned when I wanted to press charges (I later estimated that he'd stolen at least 500 cigars over a couple of years). He opened a wallet stuffed with hundred dollar bills (1982) and threw three at me. I took the money, told security to let him go and never saw him again.

This it seems is one of the extremely rare times I've two brain cells lighting up at the same time.
So...
I do remember smoking the Prince Phillip, also the Royal Jamaican ,perhaps but not sure about the Flor de Jamaica,tho can't recall the Mario Palomino cigars at all.
Some of the Canary Islands cigars of that period...70s-80s were also quite nice. In Madrid, Spain very easy to find Cubans,but in Vitoria Gasteiz (Basque territory ) no luck,tho Canary Islands cigars (can't recall the brands) were readily available and of excellent quality.
As I remember Puros Vargas Reserva, La Palma Canary Islands Cigars,were available here in U.S.
Good Long Filler Handmades, popular sizes I think were Presidentes & Churchills.
Best regards,
Bob.

Hi Bob,

I believe that General Cigar made Montecristo and Partagas and Consolidated made Don Diego and H. Upmann in the Canary Islands. These were the main players but there were some others that escape me now. The General brands were top drawer but Consoldated (under Dick DiMeola) really slipped before they moved to the Dominican Republic (and improved considerably). As I remember, the Canary Island cigars mostly used Cameroon wrappers that were more highly prized them. Mild, smooth and well made cigars were the most expensive but by today's standards they'd be medium priced. No super premiums in those days.

The original Mario Palomino was my favorite Jamaican, sort of a cross between Macanudo and Royal Jamaica, like a fuller Mac. The brand has had at least two incarnations over the years that I tried. The most recent I tried from the Devil site a couple of years ago, Dominican made, attempting to reproduce their Jamaican heritage but the sweetness is with citrus rather than the honey-molasses of the original. The new ones are incredibly light bodied, bit over packed with a fragile wrapper but inexpensive. Palomino was pretty well regarded in their heyday, 1970s and before, perhaps second in reputation only to Macanudo.

Flor de Jamaica was very well made and may have been a proprietary marque of Faber, Coe and Gregg. Short story is that I got stuck with 8 boxes of maduro Churchills that I gradually smoked through.

Ya he was pretty well worn out by then. Throwing the ball for him is usually split equally between him actually bringing it back and me going to get it so I can throw it again :)

He came over and laid down next to me on the patio and passed out shortly after that picture was taken.
