FOH'ers Daily Smoke

[MigsG]

Muchas gracias @lovethehaze for this Juan Lopez No. 1, SRO JUL 17. Smoked beautifully, toasted wood, honey and citrus.

'17 Vigia, love these

Very hot day, so let's have another, '17 Du Depute

RG Perla from GOS MAY 18. Such  fabulous rich flavour in this tiny smoke. Burnt sugar, touch of leather, molasses and vegetal earth. Smokes slowly: heavy stick for the size. Wish they made a Corona Gorda!

Sancho Panza Non Plus ABR Sep 2011

This is the first Sancho Panza Non Plus I've smoked since the 2019 deletions have been announced through 5ta Avenida and I feel some mixed emotions. Firstly, a little mournful that yet another Petit Corona is getting the 'chop' and secondly, completely unsurprised that the Non Plus will leave the Sancho Panza marca down to one vitola (the Belicosos) as it has never been a big seller. Heck, I doubt it's ever been a 'average sales' cigar either.

This was thankfully 'spot on' in regards to the draw and construction was fine, there were no issues with the burn. The cigar was mainly wood and salt and in terms of strength, it had plenty of legs in it, there was no hint of floral notes or creaminess one associates with aged Sancho Panza.

I'm down to my last few now and I envisage I will pick up another box for prosperity sake quite soon.

How was it? Have a box, same code/mo I believe, is it time to dive in?

I would! At least for a try, I think they are really good.

If HSA put a new band on them they wouldn’t stay on the shelves. I think I have one in the ready box and may have to smoke it later.

Too dark for a pic, but '17 ERDM Demi Tasse.  Whoa!  SO much flavor and character for such a small cigar!  Nuts, citrus, cocoa, mustiness, sweet marshmallow, cedar and gentle earth all continuously evolving and morphing.  Gawd, what I wouldn't give for a long skinny of these to be brought back into regular production!  I missed the haydays of Tainos and Grandes de España.

Edit: still got an inch and a half left and getting some sort of rich candy note.  It may be caramel cream.  10/10!

Edit 2: Hell's bells, I'm going to smoke another one!

Edit 3: The second one was undefilled and was little more than citrusy earth.  I'm finding the best of these are packed firm and the loose ones are garbage.  Unacceptable given the pricetag.  I'm going to have to revisit the Choix Supreme next time I need to re-up in a robusto size.

SEA MAR 17 Non Plus thanks to [mention=32323]inter4alia[/mention]. I have to laugh a little when I smoke these. I read a lot of descriptions of flavors for certain cigars and some I can relate to and some I just can’t. However, when it comes to these and the Belicoso I totally get the salty driftwood thing. Very firm feeling cigar but the draw is very good. The burn got wonky for about half an inch in the first third but sorted itself out and has been straight ever since. Nice little cigar with a unique profile. Farewell, Non Plus.

 

Nice breeze tonight so I felt like enjoying another. LAR OCT 12 Perlas. Another great little cigar.

Picked up some Opus X while in the Pacific Northwest last summer, quite the cinnamon treat after just a year down. Just noticing the similarities in profile to Rio Seco, but with a NC kick to it. Goes great with Big Swell IPA.

Kind of a dreary morning, but it usually burns off by mid morning.  Got coffee in town and started this Esplendido.  Then I went over to the public beach for a change in scenery to finish it.

 

[Wookie]

I lit this 2016 P2 and like others from this box they have been bland. Anyone else having issues with 2016 P2s?


So I said screw it and lit this SLR 2015....these have been nothing short of delicious consistency

JUN '16 Montecristo No. 4, courtesy of @HopeUgood, thank you man!

In the sweet spot at 3 years. Rich earth, cocoa, coffee, caramel. Wonderful. Perfect while listening to Spanish guitar. 

[RDB]

Por Larranaga Montecarlo LGR SEP 17. No caramel sweetness, instead a dark earthy tobacco flavour, with a hint of campfire woodsmoke. Very consistent over the hour’s smoking time. Lovely draw and almost perfect burn. I’d characterise these as just slightly rustic, but a good smoke and great value. Will be very interesting to follow this box (this was the first).

PLMC after lunch.
In love with this size so much.
Can’t wait to get my hands on some LGC MdO4’s.
