This is a little write-up about a cigar that is on the long list of axed Lonsdales. With a slightly rustic rosado wrapper it is a nice cigar to look at but not 10 out of 10 on the visual Tastewise in essence it is a Montecristo No.1 light; light-medium in strength and a very nice flavor mix . Below is the breakdown that I experienced 1. Cacao 2/5 2. Caramel 2/5 3. Cappuchino 2/5 4. Wood 1/5 5. Citric accents 1/5 This was really a one-off as I have no more left and am unlikely to encounter more.

The Dip 4 was my very first Cuban. I can remember walking into the Casa Havana in Soho very nervously and asking for a recommendation. Does anyone remember these smokes and does anyone have any left considering they were discontinued a few years ago.

Oh the pain!!! Hello all, been awhile. More life and times according to Mr. Piggy. If you have 20 minutes to burn, light up a Chicos and join me! -Piggy

So this one is from a few days ago. You may need a hit of nicotine to keep you awake through it... or perhaps a little 'crank' in yo' coffee! Diplomaticos Exclusivo Países Bajos.... Jesus, I challenge you to say that five times fast! I cannot even pronounce it... Well, you will see in the video! Thanks again Chris @ChanceSchmerr for this rare opportunity for me to smoke a Macanudo, ahhh... I mean this fine exclusive cigar! Love ya' man!!! -the Pig (take your alarm clock)

I've decided to post my 2016 Xmas Sampler Review in the Review Section for future reference purposes. It was originally posted in February this year in the 'Daily Smoke' thread... Cigars I've smoked lately... The 2016 Xmas Sampler (dedicated to our dear friend @Hurltim) Did you happen to pick up El Pres' 2016 Xmas Sampler? These cigars represent Rob's most consistent quality cigars for 2016. I smoked through these fine cigars during my January vacation time, on my own, watching sport, watching movies and sometimes in the fine company of some other dear fellow cigar enthusiasts

Review: Diplomaticos Bushido Asia/Pacific Regional Edition Date Smoked: July 20, 2015 Vitals: Dimensions: 50 * 7.2" Vitola: Nro. 109 / Double Robusto Pre-Light Notes: Firm construction, no hard spots, no sign of knots/stems, spongy throughout. Smooth wrapper, light oils. Aroma at cold: When I first received this the aroma was reminiscent of an aged cigar. I let it rest a few weeks and that aroma has since dissipated. As I'm prepping to light up, I smell cedar, a fruity/nutty aroma some cookie dough and honey. Reviewers Notes: My style of cigar reviewing is “open”. I try to jot

Obtained this cigar as a gift from my boss who recently visited the island. He forgot to check the box code he purchased singles from so apologies on that. Size: 4 7/8 X 50 (robusto) First Third Slightly looser draw than average. Creamy coffee. Soft white pepper on the finish and through the nose. Roasted nuts and sourdough bread come through at half inch point. Medium Bodied. Second Third Body scales back to just under medium. Same flavors with the creamy coffee taking on a more cappachino texture. A light cocoa note appears. Flavors coat the mouth and lips with a long lasti

Diplomaticos No 7 Review I had the opportunity a while back to pickup a full box of these. I finally cracked it open and took a stick down to Varadero Cuba to enjoy. This is a somewhat abbreviated review compared to the vintage RA Aristocrats one I just posted. Since I have a few more to enjoy, I thought I'd sit down and do a more relaxed review. Vitals: RG=38 Length = 6.0” Box code: JM NOUU / OCT 88 CCW Link: Pre-light Notes: Smooth claro, wrapper. Firm to the touch, a very well rolled cigar. Good draw. Aroma at Cold: Mint and clove on the nose. A very fresh and floral aroma in
