Pardon 1926 Maduro
Conga Line is a neat analogy and I agree for most cigars but not for the Pueblo Dominicano.Quote:

Smoking a conga-line 2013 Rocky Patel The Edge. Of course it's inconsistent, has some moments, but I could have bought Pueblos instead.
My father Robusto...5.2x52...quite likely the "oldest' in terms of it's time in my Humidor, cigar I have...seven to nine months.
Also the last of the box. Like the look of the wrapper in the Sunlight and the cigar is smoking very smoothly.
LE Corona's still my #1 choice from the My Father line, do like that size.
Haven't checked temp or Humidity today but after one helluva lot of rain overnight, air quality's much improved.

Finally getting to burn one this week. A Perdomo Champagne Noir is my choice tonight. Love a good maduro!

Myfirst Master blend three. Smoking like a freight train and leaving sweet oily feeling in my mouth. I like it.

And,that is as it should be.
Good news is indeed good news.
Have been thinking off and on about revisiting some of the Toranos,haven't had any in several years,
recall the Robustos I smoked, as being very consistant box after box. Quite sure Torano has put out some new lines fairly recently,
it's about time I picked a few up. Have a greater variety of brands ,sizes, more variety in the Wrappers, etc
now even tho I've but a limited number of cigars. As I recall the Torano Maduro and Natural Robustos were worlds apart, and good smokes.
Time for me to find one more cigar to cap off this evening.

Love those sticks, thanks Tracy
Hemingway, Pimms, and a not-Hemingway. I dunno about the natural wrapped fuentes, they just don't cut it for me. The few I've had are lacking in flavour and have a musty tone. I am partial to the couple of maduros I've had though.

Got the details done. Time for a nice little break before Med passes. SLR Titan maduro, Finder's Keepers, and coffee
Edit: Well, it was a nice 30 minutes of smoke. Smh.... Kept going out on me.
Good. Similar to the Undercrown.

First batch of Colisseum were good, medium bodied, sweet with a touch of spice with acceptable and consistent construction so I bought several bundles a few months later that have been inferior and less consistent.
I bought the box of Loyal on price (< $30) but the 56 RG Robusto is thicker than I like. The Loyal that I smoked last night is the best that I've tried but the others have been all over the place.
I expect that the Colisseum (at least a partial 'exclusive' of CI) and Loyal are not of the quality of the Torano that you've enjoyed.

That time spent in a distributors warehouse at constant temp/humidity ...so more or less perfect conditions for aging.
I'm thinking to try just those "core"lines again. The boxes I had were either Robusto or Toro sizes.
Yesterday was the first or second day this year that I smoked only one cigar.
Picking my first for today, should allow a chance to see ,if with a bit of focus, I'll be able to sense more of the flavour
changes as the cigar is reduced to ashes.

Glad I got a 5'er. Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone :)
About to ignite a Bahia Gold White Label. Never had one before, no idea what to expect, but I have enjoyed other Bahias and these were cheap, which speaks to something deep inside me :)
This was excellent
