Or you know what I actually think it tasted a lot like those brown sugar and cinnamon packets of oatmeal from Quaker. That’s what it was..

Mmm that one I really enjoyed. I believe it had a really good sweet potato note if I recall correctly. I would buy a fiver of that no doubt. The others in the line I enjoyed too but this one the most. Have great night brother

Tonight I went with a new found regular for me, The Mi Amor this time in Chuchie. Quite delicious indeed but I have to to give the slight advantage to the belicose. Either way whatever size you buy of this blend you’ll enjoy is the theme im gathering. Worth grabbing up a few more forsure. Conclusion: Crazy good stick—price aside✌️

Yeah I would concur that. My fav to v cut is the oval box pressed. I would assume v notching so much more material over just a sliver with a str8 cut would make the cigar smoke a lot faster and it definitely does. Which I like I don’t have a ton of time so I like my cigars a tad hot. In sure driving the rig n smokin can cause it to burn a little faster having the window open

Very interesting information bro thanks. Yeah I have no problem with the str8 but that v has saved me from many plugged sticks and idk just works for me. It’s deep cut colibri. And can be too deep at times seldomly and cause weird nasty goo to come out mouthpiece. But it’s rare.

Hey guys happy Friday! Hole your week has been a great one y’all! This evening I went with my very first Padron 1926 Ano Maduro! I got notes of baking spices, whisky, barley, wheat, & heavily aged cedarwood notes. Then into second I got notes of fine cognac, red pepper flakes, and a deep rich earthiness. Into the final I got notes of a rich cavendish pipe tobacco along with golden raisin and sweet tree fruit notes. Overall this thing was fantastic ! For me personally I still would rate the 1964 a tad higher at a 94.5. And this a solid 94. It’s not far off but I still prefer my 64’ diplo over this 26’ torpedo. Next up will be the 80th ano 26’. Duces y’all have a great weekend!

Yeah dude love this one it’s always to tastey, unreal. I hardly ever str8 cut but this time it worked out very well. I still will always go with the v notch because I have less issues with it unraveling or plugging up. But the str8 is great too. All my lanceros ar always str8 cut too.

Heyy guys hope having a great weekend! I went with one i knew I’d definitely have time to smoke down: The Animal Cracker Gordo by Surrogates / Tatuaje! Wow this thing really knows how keep a wonderful balance of light and dark notes! I got a medium coffee bean and a Belgium styke milky chocolate note.iver some time i got a delicious nougat, a savory french bread note, & baking spices. Nearing the final i got a buttered toast like note, hazelnut & a salted Ritz cracker note. Wow 🤯! So very good even being a 6×60, ideally not my fav or go-to. But it smoked perfect and gave me large delicious clouds of great flavor! Overall I give this a 92.5. I will definitely get more someday. Peace and love maa homies!

That’s freaking awesome Bro I should have known you were aging this blend too. I know how you love your Camacho. For damn good reasoning. Haha yessir very excited to try the new bunch. Most I haven’t had yet but That tat they gave us is a 2015 version of that blend. I do have a newer 2021 version I believe it is aging in the humi for about a year and a half.
