dflan82 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Nice work @spivey6690 I was going back and forth between the RAG and the Lusi when smoking cigar #5...I guessed wrong, haha Thanks to Lisa, Rob and FOH crew again for this year's comp! Cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post spivey6690 Posted August 9, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2017 Wow, that last one was especially tough. Had to use process of elimination to the best of my ability. I have never smoked the RA Gigantes, but I can always count on RA delivering a tasty stick, and that was certainly a tasty stick. Thank you for the congratulations, everyone. Fun competition for sure. I'm sure my wife will be proud of her cigar addict husband when I tell her the good news in the morning haha. Thanks for putting on the competition, FOH. I look forward to the next one! 10 Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to think I could always discern those two correctly, but they're similar enough I know I would fail at least sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites

The flavor profile suggested RA to me. I haven't smoked a lot of VR, but they've never knocked my socks off like RA. I thought cigar #5 was fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites

That RA clove note is hard to miss, but I've definitely had RAGs with less of it than any other RA vitola I've had. I think the volado tends to conceal it. Link to post Share on other sites
