Popular Post LLC Posted April 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2019 Picked up a couple boxes of these late last year. Kind of soon to have one but after a nice birthday dinner for my daughter and company leaving it’s late so the size seemed a good fit. UTL JUN 18 PSP Vigia. It’s off to a good start.

No more “knees and elbows”. HQ box from our host. I’ve always wondered what the big deal about these sticks were. I have a box of 2016 and they don’t taste good at all. Waiting for them to turn. To the point I refuse to buy any other H Upmanns. Did you notice a big difference from rott to now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jtfrizzy Posted April 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2019 '12 ERDM Choix Supreme paired with a couple fingers (OK... big couple fingers) of Whistle Pig Rye that a buddy of mine got for me as a house warming present. Never really tried many Ryes, but this one is quite tasty. Hope everyone enjoys you weekends I know in the NE USA the weather is going to be spectacular, so I can't wait to enjoy all the yard work I have lol.

Popular Post JohnS Posted April 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2019 Sautter Custom Super Mario I'm grateful to @Luca for picking this up from Sautters in London. As some of us may be aware, Laurence Davis likes his Cuban Customs made with huge ring gauges and this certainly did not disappoint in that department...60 ring gauge x 101 mm in length or 4 inches. It was so big that I had to use my Xikar XO cutter to clip it as that cutter is designed for cigars up to 64 ring gauge, although Xikar claim on their website that it can cut cigars up to 70 ring gauge! I actually feel that this Sautter Super Mario custom was even a little bigger than advertised, perhaps even 64 ring gauge as my next cigar after this one was so much better to draw from even though it was 47 ring gauge in diameter. It felt minuscule in comparison! Anyway, how did it smoke? Well, as my last Sautter custom was the similarly huge Elephantes I expected a supremely mild Montecristo/Por Larranaga combination like that cigar but nothing could be further from the truth. This was like an amplified Partagas Serie D No.4 all the way. The closed foot screamed pepper upon the first few puffs, which settled rather quickly into paprika spice, sourdough, leather and light coffee flavours for the rest of the cigar. The sourdough was quality though, beautifully 'airy' bread texture that you get in cigars rolled with quality leaf. How long did this take to smoke? Well a 40 ring gauge x 102 mm (or 4 inches) Perlas would take me 30 to 35 minutes to smoke on average, perhaps a tad longer. With this ring gauge I calculated the volume was around 2½ times larger and so it proved correct...this took approximately 75 to 80 minutes to finish. The nub got very hot at the end so be mindful if you ever come across this, you can't nub it as far as other more standard ring gauge cigars. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This was the 46. It was all earth, coffee, cream and a little sweetness that I get off of most the bolivars I smoke. However the bolivars I've smoked (not as much as most, maybe 40?) get more of that creamy sweet frappachino flavor that's epic when it appears. I smoked an anejo shark 2 days later that was nothing like the 46, very different flavor profile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That song was on the soundtrack of my youth - back when the hot topic in school would be the latest music video that premiered the night before. THAT brings back another memory... the day after Hanson's 'mmbop' music video premiered, one of my classmates Dan stormed into class like Kramer and exclaimed "DUDE! Those Hanson chicks are HOT!!"
