They are pretty good! Did it have any rest time on it? The one I had rested for about a year and the sampler that I have resting has about 6 months.

Getting ready for my "after breakfast" smoke!
Gotta go cleanse the palate & then...

It was very tasty. A bit of adjustment from my part, it's not a flavor profile I'm very familiar with.
The company is currently working at getting established in the US. I showed interest on Facebook and first thing I know, the owner sends me a few to sample.
I swear that I'll be completely impartial and honest on the review
Decided to revisit the LFD Chapter 1. Wasnt impressed the first go around but after a year's rest its really developed into an enjoyable smoke. Great refined Dominican profile w/solid construction & performance.
Don Lucas, mild corona... I guess? It was given to me by a friend who recently visited the Dominican Republic. Too mild for me, lack body and flavor all together but eh; it plugged the hole for Wednesday lunch time (slightly extended lunch time :rolleyes:) smoke

Lighting up a MOW Little Devil now. My first one of this.
Highly underrated cigar. If you're a Maduro fan these are really tasty cigars. Not syrupy sweet but sweet with a touch of cedar & leather. Recommended especially with a few months rest.

The best morning cigar around in my opinion. Pairs well with a breve

One of my everyday favorites!! Is there a better readily available under 4 buck robusto out there??
Had a Man O' War Puro Authentico Maduro tonight. Another short smoke, but satisfying!

Cleaning the garage and enjoying the always good short story.
I think it is time for me to branch out and find some maduros
I smoked Puff's logo.
I had a Partagas 1845 Extra Oscuro Robusto Gordo. I enjoy the large amounts of smoke emitted from these.
My first Davidoff:

Undercrown corona viva. A bit on the wet side, but still smokes great if you smoke it fast. Letting the few I have left to dry out considerably...
RP Event. This was my first stick.

My second stick

They were both great sticks. Royale was very good.
This afternoon I had a 6.6X54 Punch Uppercut Toro cigar.:o This cigar has been resting in my 65% rh humidor for 12 months. When I purchased these cigars I did not know anything about them; only that they were "Punch Cigars" and they were offered on private auction on CBID. My cigar this afternoon was absolutely delicious as the few that I have already smoked. After lighting this cigar I experienced a med-full, oily, earthy, peppered, spice and coffee smoke with that added mustiness of aged tobacco that I so love.:D The construction of this cigar was excellent with minor small vein, razor sharp burn and excellent draw; dang-it-it was so very good. I contacted cigar vendors; CI, Famous, Holts, etc and they all said that they did not have these cigars. Finally I talked to Famous Cigars and was told that this cigar was discontinued by Punch because they could not get the raw material to continue.:mad: I had 25 of these cigars and will smoke them sparingly; Oh Well. I topped off this smoke with a large cup of hot coffee and I had a cigar event!:)
Caldwell Eastern Standard Corretto. Very good cigar medium to full but it has a pretty good nic kick.
Nirvana Silencio. Don't usually smoke this late but it's hitting the spot. Attachment 211
No cigar porn here - went with a 2011 Tesa 312 lancero and a Cro Magnon Knuckle Dragger. Did not eat much so I did not want to get too rocked!

Revisited the Viaje Cache. Initially a bland and boring cigar, it has transformed into a wonderful smoke; amazing what just 8 months rest at 65-62% can do.
And the Emerald, an old fav.
