Marevas (2/5)

  1. WT101 with a PSD4 is one of my favorite combinations. Also, Woodford Double Oaked with RASS or Monte 2 (especially if they have darker wrappers).
  2. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the review!
  3. I just wanted to say thanks for doing these reviews. I find them very interesting. I had the same experience you did with the La Palina line (Rosada is the way to go). Your review of the Caldwell Pacific peaked my interest enough to order a five pack to try out. I would love to hear your take on the Tatuaje Brown label-my personal NC favorite.
  4. I will preface this by saying that Montes in general I absolutely love. A good #2, PE, #5. Love them. That is why I thought I would loved the Edmundo. Great size, great marca, how could you go wrong. Not the case at all. I tried numerous times over the years. Different boxes, years, etc. Same result. I never liked them. Almost like they were a different profile. Can't explain why, just my experience. I gave up on them long ago.
  5. For me the JLPs start out decent if I'm lucky but get more bland the longer they are down. After my last purchase I lost interest in them altogether. On the other hand, I have had a taste for the Quintero Favoritos and stashed away a couple of boxes to burn through a couple of years back. After about 6 months I noticed they had become "smoother" lets say. And after a year down they were still improving. I liked them quite a bit with a coffee in the morning.
  6. Not really a golfer. I played a couple of times years ago and still have an old set of clubs. Probably couldn't hit the ball but maybe I'll pick it back up.
  7. Welcome! I'm just down the road in Elizabethtown.
  8. I've always smoked a mix of NC/CC, but most NC's have never quite hit the mark for me. I'm a CC guy through and through. However, I have always managed to find NC's that I like quite a bit. So with the increased pricing recently I have explored and experimented a great deal in the NC world. The one brand that I keep coming back to is Tatuaje. Most of this has been covered already, but here is my contribution. Tatuaje has so many lines to choose from that it is difficult to know where to start. I haven't tried them all but I've tried a lot of them. Some I love(brown label) and some I don't like at all(Fausto). What it comes down to for me is the wrapper and the size of the cigar. I had the Tatuaje Noella (original brown label-Ecuadorian Habano) and loved it-not too spicy but flavorful, maybe kinda sort cubanesque but not really. I tried the same blend in the Regios(robusto) size and it was good but not nearly as good as the smaller version. If you like some extra spice, then go with the broadleaf wrappers(Reserva Broadleaf). If you like something more smooth, creamy, etc. then look at the Ecuadorian Connecticut wrappers(Tatuaje Negociant). Hope that all made sense!
  9. Welcome from E-town. Just down the road from you.
  10. Very cool. We should meet up for a cigar sometime.
  11. Welcome to FOH. I'm just down the road in Elizabethtown.
  12. Perlas here as well. These have been my go to smoke in the morning with coffee lately. Very nice.
  13. Welcome Jody. I'm in Elizabethtown, KY myself. Glad you made it here.
