I really liked their Sun Grown as well, and am looking forward to the last one, their Maduro. I so love a Maduro!Quote:

A JR alternative to the CAO Maduro Churchill I nubbed with my coffee this morning:

Speaking of Nub, I wish they made them in a smaller ring. 50-54 is a bit big, much less 60 and such. Well, they are for me, but then I’m not a big guy at 5’8”...
Big guy or big mouth or not I do not understand these 60 plus ring gauge cigars as anything more than a gimmick.Quote:

46 to 50 are my preferred rings
An experiment 6 months in the making. Back in August I placed 2 edges corojo in my lighter box in my garage and forgot them for 2 months. When I found them, I decided to see how long they will store in such fluctuating environment. After many 70-0 degree weather days and who knows what rh, I decided to light one up tonight.
Aside from it being hard as a twig, I'm really surprised how well it's drawing, burning and how the flavor isn't much different from what I remember. As much sht rocky patel takes, they do a nice job at constructing these sticks. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e7769efee6.jpg

Faustos aren't high on my list of favorite Tats either, they've always hit me as really strong. Sorry it wasn't your thing GQuote:

No no no. No apologies needed my friend, it was a great cigar and I'm glad I tried it. I wasn't trying to diminish it or the gift, just giving my two cents on the flavor profile. If anything, I need to thank you for pushing me to try some tats and discovering some gems I would have never tried. So thank you.Quote:

Late Wednesday Evening. Esteban Carreras Mr brownstone Smack Maduro.
32 degrees F. at the time this one was set alight...that might explain the need to touch up an uneven burn...shaking too much to get it right on first try.
Really? They are one of my favorites! It is a rare thing for our pallets not to agree!Quote:

My personal opinion with anything Tat have some patience, Haven’t had anything from this outfit with less than a year at a nice Rh that was worth a damn! Ain’t trying to twist any arms but as a Tat fan I’ve come to realize as with the Cuban realm a nice nap goes a long way!Quote:

Evening smoke after a nice long walk on the sand at the beach on a quite cold night under bright moon. The it is fine for all night Bob. Mr Brownstone Chuchy the first from two boxes
that had a very tight draw, needed several touch ups until the final third which burned very smoothly.
Davidoff Colorado Claro Special T from Privada. One of the best cigars I’ve ever smoked. Superb. More spice than I’m used to from Dominican cigars. That’s why I usually don’t like Dominican cigars. There’s a sweet spiciness, almost like a red hot. Too bad these are $20 cigars. If you’re looking for a treat to buy and stow away, smoking only a couple a year, this is it.

Dropped it. Doing the best I can with this. So far, so good. Its a Tat, so it’s tasty nonetheless.

Wow - didn't mean to set off such a storm on the Fausto - just not among my favorite Tats. I've had a few that were great but usually I wind up wishing I'd have grabbed something else. Maybe it's just timing - don't know what to tell you.
@cheaphumidors - you lost my palate at Gurkha !!!
@SoCal gunner you are a trouble maker. @Regiampiero did not say anything about needing more cigars at all. Of course, I may owe him a do over on that lance but to just up and bomb the man would be wrong :nono:
Tonight's pleasure, from a brother elsewhere

Late Afternoon~early Evening.Esteban Carreras Mr. Brownstone Chuchy Habano.
Unlike the last one I smoked this one lit easily kept a near razor sharp burn line, no need for relights or touch up drew just fine for a one hour and forty nine minutes.
Guess what I’m smoking tonight:
