Always a bit windy at this time of year, so i kept em small and numerous. Zahn, go and see Samwise for your hit. Michael, it's in the post should be there monday.
- CAO MX2: the last of these and my question would be - do you want more or not?
-
Rafael Gonzalez Perlas: 'bout to put up a review, suffice to say this small fella packs a meaty punch and goes beautifully with coffee. This cigar was only introduced last year. Love it.
-
San Cristobal El Principe: an old friend but from a March 2011 box. It has a fruitiness to it that, to me, screams !port!
- Liga Undercrown Corona !Viva!: San Andres (mexican) wrapper, mix of Brazilian mata fina and Nicaraguan
filler. Meaty, cocoa and little bit of pepper?, but only medium-bodied
and will work with pretty much anything.
- Some of you get Cuaba Exclusivos:A more recent marca (est. 1990s) made up of only perfecto (curvy)
vitolas and often criticised for its poor construction. This is a
carefully selected box from 2008 so ready to smoke now. On the milder
side and yet complex and satisfying - you'll see what i mean. Needs a
light drink, and definitely not coffee. Excellent after-lunch cigar. I
really loved the small rg of the end you stick in your mouth, for some
reason, just so comfortable. Won't improve as mild and 5 years old so
smoke it now!!!
- Some of you get Scott's big Bandido Loco Mexican Fiesta Cigar: his parents brought this back from Mexico and it is not a cigar to be taken too seriously. Good if you're doing something incompatible with cigar appreciation like beer drinking round the bbq. Every now and again you get a !!!salsa explosion!!! in your mouth for a fleeting moment, which disappears quickly only to jump out on you again like a chilli-eating bandito, when you least expect it.
