What are you smoking in September 2008?

[Iceman]

It was about 95 here on Wednesday, so I went by the B&M on the way home and to continue to confuse Stan.... I had a pretty full cigar with a lot of creamy smoke and flavor. A Pepin 601 Black Label.



Later after it cooled off a little bit I had a Perdomo Lot 23 natty.

That Black Label is a ConnShade/Ecudorian grown wrapper, I think? The "mildest" of the 601's and solidly medium for my palate. A GREAT first-cigar-of-the-day!

It was a very good cigar, but if it were my "first-cigar-of-the-day", it would also be my last of the day. [size=7]I guess I am just a cigar lightweight.[/size]

The waterfall is pretty weak right now as it's been a pretty dry summer but it gave the kids a chance to climb up the rockface and wade around in the pool so it was fun

That kind of looks like what I did on Monday, except without all that water, LOL!

And when they say "Pavement Ends" buddy they aren't kidding!!!! This part is tame compared to the road for the next 9 miles to get back into the trail head. People were driving SUVs and trucks back in there, and then there's me with my Chrysler 300M with about 4.3" of ground clearance and big 'ole chrome wheels. Yeah, they probably thought I was some kind of city slicker... little do they know that my hometown is about 200 people in the middle of BFE Pennsylvania, LOL!



That's me with a Mayorga Churchill Maduro, the little white sign beside me is a hiking scale that reads "Most Difficult." LMAO, the woods behind my parent's house where I grew up is more diffucult to hike through, this one was a piece of cake... didn't even break a sweat.

.........and this is why you can pick up the nuances in the flavour and I got nothing!

The construction is top notch,the burn got wavy a times but never had to give it much attention, as it fix it's self every time...I tasted coco,coffee.and a slighty sweet spice that was there through out...quality cigar!!



It stayed really smooth..All the way to the nub!

Just finished a Padron Delicias, very tasty.

Last night I watched the Giants vs Redskins out on the deck with a very nice CAO America.

[Tater]

When I got home from work last night I lit up my first Partagas and was really disappointed. It was cracking all over the place and the draw was horrible. I smoke about an inch before I gave up.

This morning I smoked a cigar that my father-in-law brought back from the Dominican Republic. Its name is Don Lorenzo. Anyone ever heard of it? Its had a fairly uneven burn and a taste like no other. I Googled it and couldn't find much info except that they produce rum mainly. I have one more in the humi and may let it sit for a while, or send in a future bomb for my first vicitm to try.

I had a Perdomo ESV last night, It was a VERY tasty smoke with absolutely perfect draw.
