Punch Double Corona OER JUL 20 SNOWRW
dobbs replied to Kaptain Karl's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
this is interesting to me, while i mostly agree with the above, cohiba panatelas and exquisitos are rarely (never) mentioned when discussing "skinnies." i haven't smoked either myself, but would be interested to understand why these are fairly overlooked. sorry for the thread-jack, feel free to ignore, i'll start a seperate thread if necessary, but the discussion is here, so... anyway, great review, i don't generally care for punch, but this is making me want to grab a box of pdc. -dobbs -

i got those mar e2's like everyone else and they look and smell stunning whether the photo shows it or not: the wrappers are actually very red. -dobbs -
Question on the E2's
dobbs replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
you asked dude, it was an excellent explanation -dobbs -
i'll echo the foursquare recommendations, pretty much anything they make. being a whiskey drinker, i find their 12 year bottlings to be the only rum on-par with fine whiskey. their probitas white rum collaboration with hampden is fantastic as well. that said, i'm not a huge fan of neat liquor with cigars. i really like appleton signature (the cheap one) with ginger ale (not ginger beer) and lime. fantastic with or without cigar. the appleton 12 is pretty good too, and if you're looking for another interesting white rum, casa magdalena is worth checking out. -dobbs

Partagas Serie E No 2 .......pass or fail?
dobbs replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
okay, so i know i'm digging up an old thread, but i smoked an e2 the other day from uao abr 19 that was in my top 5 cigars for the year. because of that, i ask the same question el presidente asked in 2014: well, how are the e2's with some years on? -dobbs -

Partagas Lusitania 12DCRC

lusis are probably my favorite cigar, so consistent. i've got an aso mar 17 box that is super-dark, but smoking pretty great right now. i am really interested to see how they do over the next 3-5 years. i have a cab from 19 and definitely need a few more. smoke now, smoke later. nice review, thanks. -dobbs -
if you can get past the lack of value, partagas serie d #6 is a great smoke that lasts just under an hour. -dobbs

Let's talk about watches...
dobbs replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
nice chronograph, i have a soft spot for Sinn watches, especially with the "syringe" style hands. i have a 556i which i wear nearly everyday but is getting serviced/repaired: -dobbs -

hard to beat a fine cigar and a good book, and that book is one of the best. nice review, thanks. -dobbs -
haven't paid serious attention to "regular" media for decades. there's no real mystery to the origins/development of television and the business of news, nothing particularly new, history is there for the reading... daily world financial news is all of my news intake, with a tiny bit of focused, supplementary reading. this diet has kept me unsurprised regarding most world and local events. yes, i am usually behind the curve on the "did you hear?" category of events and couldn't care less. oh, and friendster didn't make sense, not sure how the succeeding iterations got it better, but screw that. -dobbs
