That cigar tastes the way an Elephant smells!!!

[shilala]

That's what my girlfriend told me today.
We were having lunch at a nice little Italian restaurant after church (I like to go to church every year without fail). I had a Delmonico, super rare bordering on raw, covered with a burgundy beef gravy and sauteed mushrooms, spaghetti and steamed veggies on the side (I avoided the veggies cause they're good for me), a salad and home made italian bread dipped in warmed olive oil full of garlic and basil.
Kerri had Eggplant Parm.
Oh yeah, we shared some wedding soup and it was awesome. Had some tomato in and was borderline minestrone.

Anyways...
I ordered us coffee and cheesecake for dessert and fired up a little Padron 64 Maduro. I was smoking my cigar, eating my cheesecake, drinking my coffee, and enjoying the company of the sexiest woman in the world.
I must have looked like I was in heaven, and for some reason she thought it had something to do with the cigar cause she asked to try it.
I was better than halfway done and it was getting a little rude at that point, but I gave it to her anyways.
She took a little girly puff and I told her she didn't get anything. I suggested she try a little harder. So she took another little poof and I teased some more.
She hit the next one good and handled it pretty well.
The moment she recovered she says, and I quote "That thing tastes just like an elephant smells!!!"
I'm going to invite her to write a review.

I'm sure Padron would love that.

Please correct her next time.

"It taste like a Gorilla smells."

This the correct phrase. Some women just can't keep their jungle animals straight.
Just kidding, my wife wouldn't even tried to take a puff. No pun intended.

She's gotta start somewhere!!

Buy here smelly flavored cigars and go from there! You gotta love and respect that she is interested and tries to enjoy the things that you do!!

She liked the little Karmasutra Splashes I have. When the weather gets nice I have a Drew Estate with her name on it. She smelled it and liked it, I imagine she'll have a shot at it when we go camping.

Right on Scooter. Maybe you should slow up on the smoking? The last 64 I had was polite the entire time but it took me about an hour and a half.

Sounds like she & my wife would get along well! Look at it this way, Bro, at least we don't have to share our cigars with them!

[BostonMark]

Get that girl a Drew Estate Java!

[smokin5]

Could have been worse.
She could have said it smells like an elephant tastes,
& then you would have spent the rest of the day
wondering where or why she ever tasted an elephant.

Evening Shilala!

I once met an elephant in Puerto Rico named Jumbo - he smelled like bubble gum, maybe she meant it tasted like bubble gum?

Good point.
I'll ask her when she gets home. The look on her face and the tone of her voice did not indicate any sort of bubble gum flavor, but I've been known to misunderstand a woman a time or two.

Who has an hour and a half? I got stuff to do!!!

I love that dirty elephant taste! It is the taste of quality, craftsmanship, and aged perfection!

The wet dog smell taste is the one I avoid!!!

I've been around ele's in the wild...they don't smell that bad. But MONKEYS! Thats another thing all together.

Great story. You must have made that cigar look as if it tatsed like a million bucks. Hey, atleast she tried. I bet it gets her curiosity up, you sneaky devil, you.
