Look at the box press, its square and the constuction is phenomenal

The ash held great, but the burn was a bit wanky. No touch ups

Alan, if you purge, it usually corrects that wonky burn line. At least that has worked for me. And Fuentes usually have a perfect burn line unless not acclimated. Just my $0.02.

Nice rainy Sunday afternoon, with a few hours to relax with some coffee, '73 Dead and a nice stick.

I will have to restock these soon, as this was my last. These are very enjoyable smokes IMHO, medium body, great draw and construction, with a nice flavor profile and finish.
Everything Pepin I try has so much pepper, are these the same? Sometimes I make people upset when I ask but are you a phish fan too or only the dead?Quote:

I have been making an effort to keep them out of every picture, but apparently I am not very good at it. One crept in this weekendQuote:

Happy Tuesday - Verocu tonighthttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...342baa5055.jpg
I know it was Tatuesday, but I couldn't resist the urge to try one of these finally.
it had a very distinct flavor profile and aroma which reminded me a lot of H&H Blackhouse pipe tobacco. Certainly a change of pace and a stick I would like to try again with some solid rest on it. Might have to grab a few more and bury them deep in the humi for a couple years.

Waited all day for this one, Tatuesday at its finest.

Tuesday. Ligero By Morning, unbanded Boutique from Cigar Foundation....5.75x50. A Toro by size, my guess .
Courtesy of my Secret Santa Brian. Fired up at: 4:46 Pm on this hectic day, nice easy light, a "lighter" milder smoke than I expected.
Can't guess the wrapper or binder, fillers but quality leaf, a well constructed cigar a first class smoke.
Nice,very nice long smoke. Thanks Brian.
Burn time: One hour and Thirty Seven Minutes.

My coat still stinks like cigars this morning

Been wondering the same thing. I've been on the lookout for a decent candela to try. All I usually see is garbage like 'Angry Elf' and I'm not down with $1 junkyard gars. I may not be able to tell the difference between a $7 cigar and a $30 cigar, but I sure as heck can tell the difference between $1 and a $5 cigar.Quote:

You can tell the difference! You may not be able to detail the difference but when you smoke them, you can tell!Quote:
