Modern parenting at its finest.
But lest we forget these are the Exceptional people our leaders refer to.

Amen...parents are afraid to marry up their hand to a kids behind anymore when they don't listen or misbehave. When I see parents begging their kid to be good, it makes my ass hurt all the up to the back of my neck...There's a big difference between abuse and discipline.... YMMV

Paul Stulac Blinding Light courtesy of allusred. It was really good, and had some unique flavors. I got some coffee and cedar, but also a mossy flavor that reminds me of some pipe tobaccos with Latakia. I enjoyed the heck out of it, thank you Bob.

2013 La Aurora Corojo #4 with light coffee on a very mid-Fall kind of morning.

I had this one cut and ready to go as my final smoke of the night (~11pm). Put it in my mouth, tasted the tip and woke up at 4am with it dangling, none the worse for the wear and ready to be lit. Too bad no one took a picture, you guys would have appreciated it and it would have been perfect next to my obituary.

Long ago I developed a preference for coronas by La Aurora over their thicker rings. I liked the pack, draw and flavor intensity. A nice corojo but I would have enjoyed this leaf more at night.

The Gran Toro and Torpedo are on sale at CigarsInternational @$69.99 a box of 25 but the #4 (the one that I'm smoking) is not @$140.99. $2.80/stick.

Morning David,

I don't mean to detour this (sanctified) thread however you raise a philosophical point that I've been grappling with ever since the Adrian Peterson child abuse story hit the news last year.

To my sensibilities, Peterson went too far when he used a switch to discipline his 4yo son but it was the discipline that he knew and he was (certainly in his mind) taking responsibility as a parent. Peterson has been reviled and he lost a year of his career so he's had punishment but for what crime? Not having the same values as (the general) society that has no standards nor guidelines so that parents wilt from their responsibilities in fear of recrimination?

When I became a grandparent I did what I couldn't have done as a (new) parent, I devised a cogent discipline plan that requires time and effort and no possibility of spanking (it's not my place). Our society, in perception and law, stands ready to punish without having clearly stated what the rules are. Why aren't parenting classes mandatory just as driving courses are? Is the raising of our children less important than getting to the mall?

There is a difference between abuse and discipline but we, as a society, expect it to be intuitive when it's not because parenting is a difficult business and circumstances require different response and approach. I support mandatory expectant parental education but not the elimination of 'the hand to the butt' that, when rarely and judiciously applied (not with a lot of force), has been an important parenting tool for millennia. Our society's future depends on it.

Regards,

Pete

Not sure of my next smoke as this La Aurora Corojo corona has some mileage remaining.

Been dreading the time, soon, when I have smoked my last Grimalkin...so, very much hope that in this new iteration, as La Musa...all that smokes so well in the Grimalkin lives on.
And there should be some reason to have this hope...Grimalkin = cat = nine lives.

Every day should be a Maduro day! I enjoyed it quite a bit. Out of the 2 very well aged sticks I've smoked from Donnie I preferred the Black Pearl to this. But there was only 1 Black Pearl and I have another LCG Serie R Maduro so I'm excited to smoke it again!

Droy,
There must be a few of those thieves out there,I'm sure some of my, My Fathers Cigars are being stolen.
Who ever it is sure likes the M.F. Coronas,I like them so once a box is open will burn a couple pretty quickly,
but in short order I'm lucky to find one left in the humidor.
Think I'll get some Ron Mexicos,or Ghurkas,switch bans with the MF cigars,that might put a stop to this.

Well I've never had the pleasure of smoking a Grimalkin so I can't do a head to head comparison. This cigar is very rich and flavorful and definitely Nicaraguan but not too heavy or overpowering. It starts off medium but ends med-full with some very nice coffee and cocoa notes but not as much as the AF1 from the same maker. I got a little bit of leather through the middle but it faded at the end. Burn and draw were outstanding. I was very pleased with this cigar and look forward to the rest of the 5er that I bought.

Turett Tripple-Play 7x54 with Gran Centinario Anejo.

I had a Tripple-Play a while ago in Toro and thought highly of it. This was more watery, much less concentrated but still decent. In this pairing it worked because the Gran Centinario was 38% abv. Nice mellow experiance all round where the flavours didn't clash.

Would get the Toro next time - not even close...

2013 Arganese Cafe Dominicana with iced water and Willie & Lobo in the background.

Posted about this box here: Cigar Beetle Thread (http://www.cigarbum.com/forum/general-non-habanos-cigar-discussion/cigar-beetle-question-4650.html)

Picked up a couple of boxes (have to look for the other) after sampling them ~2012. True morning cigar, very light but it has distinct flavors of bright leaf tobacco (Virginia), honey, citrus and hay. Age (2 years) smoothed them into a consistently delightful smoke with flavors that linger, honey and orange, long after the smoke is done. Smokes very much like a cross between pipe tobacco and a cigar but gentle on the tongue and almost no acid. Think Dominican Olor meets Lemon and Pekoe Virginia. Construction is good (enough) and interesting as it's a pigtail with a shaggy foot, burned well with sufficient smoke and consistent flavor throughout. Easily my favorite Arganese that I've yet smoked.

I bought my boxes for $19 (12 cigars) on CigarBid but prices quickly went into the mid $30. and then I didn't see them any more. They're worth the higher price.

Droy,
There must be a few of those thieves out there,I'm sure some of my, My Fathers Cigars are being stolen.
Who ever it is sure likes the M.F. Coronas,I like them so once a box is open will burn a couple pretty quickly,
but in short order I'm lucky to find one left in the humidor.
Think I'll get some Ron Mexicos,or Ghurkas,switch bans with the MF cigars,that might put a stop to this.

Good idea!. I set up a camera at the humidor. It's scary how much the friggin' thief looks like me. He's got to be Asian because they all look alike!... ;)

At first glance this looks like a cigar, this is a high performance reward for a tough day. Every time I light one it impresses me, the burn, smoke production and seductive aromas and flavors are so consistent. About time to buy another box.

Liked yesterday afternoon's stick (same) so well that I hadn't smoked since then (a while for me). This one's not as good, less sweet and distinct, some construction and wrapper issues but it fits the morning well. It's not finishing with the great aftertaste of the last.

I've not had a morning smoke, but at 78* and 58% humidity it's rather nice and fall-like, and with most of my chores done prior to company it seems rather fitting. And so I brought out a moduro DogRockets recently sent for me to try.

Pete, this caught my eye in your post. " Perhaps it's individual body chemistry."
I too have found a couple of well regarded brands that for whatever reason I do not like. Just something that hits the wrong note, for me.
Know of a couple of cases of people who have bad to very bad reactions to certain drugs/medicines that most will have no problems when taking.
Doctors/pharmatcists tend to use the "it's the same medicine in a generic as in the branded drug." tend not believe anyone who doesn't agree with them.
However...fillers make up the bulk of most meds...and some one thing or some combination may cause problems, even if only for a few people.
Not to hard for me believe that a wrapper or filler leaf grown in one place might affect a blend differently that the same variety grown at another location.
Would expect that even if one were to hate the first brand/blend smoked. There likely is another that they would enjoy. Whole lot of cigars out there.

I always have these in the humi. Construction and draw are always flawless. Lovely notes of cocoa, coffee and liquorice.

A few years ago my son took me to a local B&M and insisted on buying me a couple of cigars. I was a B&M and would like to support them but the State Tax makes prices prohibitive but my son wouldn't leave until I'd selected a La Aroma de Cuba Monarch (~$10.50) and a Sancho Panza Glorioso (~$8).

The La Aroma was good, very well made, nice notes but the flavor wasn't crisp enough to be exceptional.

I knew the Sancho Panza well, had smoked many boxes of them but the proprietor claimed that they were better because he'd aged them for 3 years. He kept all of his cigars spanish style. I believe him because it was a wonderful cigar, very retro-cubanesque (did I invent a term?), rich, saturated leather with a touch of earth, consistent throughout with a complex core of cocoa and white pepper and a long and even burn.

I bought a couple more boxes of the Gloriosos, I admit on the Devil Sight, and though intended to have them age 3 years, someone removed them, one by one from my humidors before that time. With the Sancho Panza the store was able to give added value to offset the price but it pains me to see how much these oppressive taxes hurt these businesses. I have enough money to afford cigars but not the tax.

I'll try the double maduro, thanks.

A few years ago my son took me to a local B&M and insisted on buying me a couple of cigars. I was a B&M and would like to support them but the State Tax makes prices prohibitive but my son wouldn't leave until I'd selected a La Aroma de Cuba Monarch (~$10.50) and a Sancho Panza Glorioso (~$8).

The La Aroma was good, very well made, nice notes but the flavor wasn't crisp enough to be exceptional.

I knew the Sancho Panza well, had smoked many boxes of them but the proprietor claimed that they were better because he'd aged them for 3 years. He kept all of his cigars spanish style. I believe him because it was a wonderful cigar, very retro-cubanesque (did I invent a term?), rich, saturated leather with a touch of earth, consistent throughout with a complex core of cocoa and white pepper and a long and even burn.

I bought a couple more boxes of the Gloriosos, I admit on the Devil Sight, and though intended to have them age 3 years, someone removed them, one by one from my humidors before that time. With the Sancho Panza the store was able to give added value to offset the price but it pains me to see how much these oppressive taxes hurt these businesses. I have enough money to afford cigars but not the tax.

I'll try the double maduro, thanks.
Pete, can you expand on the Spanish style storage? I googled it but got no hits. Thanks.

Hi Anthony,

Spanish style is without cellophane. In my day it was a common term but, thinking about it, I haven't seen it used much these days.

I just lit up this from the CA monthly care package. I haven't listened to the show yet so I don't know who made it, but it is pretty awesome.

That's a pretty good price, considering that the cans themselves sell for ~$10 at the gun shows, and they usually smell like they've been used for field toilets.

I'd like to give it another try, cuz I've never had a weak or tasteless LFD yet.

2013 Arganese Cafe Dominicana Breakfast Blend (Toro size, ~6" x 50), pigtail & ragged foot. Coffee light.

I haven't snapped off a pigtail yet but the ragged foot does improve lighting, perhaps as an aid for groggy smokers lighting up in bed as they arise?

As I progress through this box these are consistently inconsistent with with similar but not the same flavors between cigars. Today I'm tasting oatmeal (Yessir! That's a breakfast cigar!) and the snork is subdued.

The torcedor who made this cigar knew their craft!

2012 H. Upmann Vintage Cameroon Toro (6x54) en cedro. Iced seltzer, Julian Bream playing Bach Lute Suite.

Great looking cigar, wrapper not as fragile as Cameroon can be. Taste does remind of a 1980s H. Upmann, bit more full and tad sweeter but with a much stronger snork (preferred). I probably paid ~$3 in a sampler and it's a good value at that.

Have to, and do, like this post...but this (partial quote) all but jumps from the screen...

"these are consistently inconsistent with with similar but not the same flavors between cigars."

Think I may have smoked some that had...almost those same traits.

Smoked late last night, early this Morning, a Murcielago Toro Grande...6.5x54 that produced as much or more smoke than any cigar I've ever
smoked...and burned slowly...sharp burn line, thinking that the much greater volume of smoke when compared to the Murcielago Churchill is due
to the larger ring gauge. Anyway the amount of smoke from that Toro grande size Murcielago really impressed.

Thanks Pete,for another interesting post.

Tony, do you have a long commute or do you drive around till finished or finish later (like on the way home)? :)

2013 Torano Colisseum Churchill. When I first bought these they were pretty good sticks that I was getting for a little over a buck. Bought too many because they too are consistently inconsistent.

Some in the latest bundle have too much smoke (Yes, Virginia, there is such a thing), rough burn and they range from wan to flavorful (this one) but in the same, general, area code. I won't miss them when they're gone.

Schedules changes and so I had to as well. Now brewing/bottling days coincide with watering the lawn days which means there is beer drinking involved as it would be sacriligeous to deal with beer and be dry myself. Since I was drinking my hoppy pale ale and needed a lasting stick to accompany me I found another Ghurka sent by AlanS to see just how it might do in this instance. It did quite well and was quite smokey.
