What did you smoke today (NC) II

When I first got into cigars, I was rummaging around the closeout bin at a local B&M and the owner came in and politely told me that the cigars that were in there didn’t sell for a reason, and there were plenty of great “budget” cigars if I didn’t want to spend much. He then put a New World in my hand and said it was the best deal he had in his store. He was not wrong and I left with sage advice that day. Still love these.

They are a great medium-bodied smoke! Hate to be that guy, but very “Cubanesque.”

Ha, I know what ya mean but, I'd have to agree with your assessment. Especially with this one having some age and by the looks of the cello I'd say it does!

It's a good smoke. Not sure what tobacco it's using, but it tastes like a colorado, very peppery and with a long lasting metallic/irony finish. Sort of like a rare stake. Cayenne and nutmeg in the retro-hale.

After reading a little about this stick I guess it's suppose to be an habano rosado (is that the same thing as Colorado? Dunno) and it's suppose to have coffee and caramel, but I didn't get ether of those.

AVERT YOUR EYES.

I had another one. Finally smoked this Gurkha Regent from a budget cigar bomb from @droy1958 .

We all know the reputation, but I gotta say, I’m pretty blown away. This is a great cigar. Plumes of smoke. Smoking beautifully. Pepper and mint. I won’t hate on this brand as much as I used to.

No, actually it was really oily! Really, a damn fine cigar. This has lots of time on it. I’ve had it for more than a year and I’m sure Droy let it rest at least a year, too.

Enjoy! It is a cigar that fly's under the radar but packs a tasty punch.
