I had a great cigar today, thanks to....

[Franksmith]

I thought it would be nice to have a thread where we all could make a quick "thanks!" for a gifted stick we smoked.

I had a stick that was given to me by Jeremy (NV) today (actually smoking it right now) and it is an unmarked #2 (torpedo) shaped domestic that I have been holding onto from May and it is smoking VERY good. Very dark n oily with a perfect draw and full flavor.... just how I like em!

Thanks Jeremy!!!

I smoked a Park Avenue Serie 44 gifted to me by Jeremy as well. I enjoyed it with my morning coffee and a good book (Blow Fly by Patricia Cornwell).

Thanks Jeremy.

Smoked an SLRA the other day courtesy of Mogleman.

Man ... what a great smoke, I make a fool of myself sniffing the thing for 20 minutes before I sparked it up.

I had a JOSE L.PIEDRA CAZADORES that came to me in a PIF from Jeff (jgros001) this morning at about 9am. Great Earthy Nutty flavor. Perfect construction and just the right draw resistance. I enjoyed it right after a Slimfast Breakfast along with a few cups of Nicaraguan Knife Fight™.

It was perfectly Blissful, I nubbed it.

Thank you Jeff

Well, I thanked him in another thread, but I can't thank him enough . . . . A beautiful bomb exploded in my mailbox, sent this way by NavyDoc! Five incredible sticks including: Two Opus X; a Diamond Crown Maximus; and a couple of rare Anejo AF's! Not smoking them today, but trying to hatch up a special occasion to smoke one. Thanks again NavyDoc! And then, another bomb went off, this one from Slimboli, an unopened box of Don Barrento robustos . . . yummy, juicy and already aged. Thanks Slim.

[Franksmith]

Just finished off this evenings smoke... a Indian Tabac Corojo Classic gifted by my Buddy Pat the Nooner from the NC PIF/MAW It was an awesome smoke, I have never tried one before but if they all taste that good I will have to pick up a box.... it got nubbed!

THANKS PAT!!!

The Padres cliched the division tonight, and for the last 2 innings I was outside listening to the radio drinking the last of my Carmenet 2000 Zinfendel Ruby port and smoking a gifted Epi2 Millenium 2000 from Poker. The tenth and last of my cheap $2.99/bottle experimental vintage 2000 Zin port from 200 years old vines and a very expensive corona. There is a mild Santa Anna, so it was 73 outside even at 10 PM and I got to watch Mars and the Pleides rise in the east and even got to see a very bright meterorite burn itself out as it came down. ( An omen that SD is going to the Series?) The port was made with grain neutral spirits and was a closeout from the sale of the Carmenet stocks when the vineyard was bought out, a very rich ruby port, slightly sweet. The cigar was a gift from poker-san at one of the San Diego herfs, started off very mild but with great aroma, a very fragrant and enjoyable smoke, almost all of the twang was in the nose and the flavor was of mild tobacco with a hint of cedar and pronounced nuttiness in the final third. Thank you sir, I think I finally found the right occasion to enjoy this fine stick!

GO PADRES

Or an omen that the Gators will score a great victory on November 26th?
