maverickdrinker Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 ramon allones superiores; flavours were muddled. Maybe in a sick period? 98 bolivar corona extra; seemed muted. not much going on in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Nice weather today in Toronto. Time for BW to light up. I pulled out a Diplo 2 from 2008. Such a great cigar. Initial tannins, with some bitter finish, moving along to leather, coffee and something sweet (couldn't nail the taste). By the middle of the 2nd/3rd, pepper, nuts, leather and creamy smoke took over. I nubbed this one and it really paid off. That sweetness I was getting revealed itself to be very "vanilla - like". I can't even do justice to it as I write. Such glorious range on this beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobKincaid Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Padilla Lancero around lunch, followed by a Partagas SP2 POL OCT10 this evening. The Padilla was delightful and the SP2 is decidedly young, but still has a good bit of character. Seems to lack depth of flavor complexity yet.

maverickdrinker Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 RASCC and a cohiba robusto to finish the night. Much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghabanos Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I see you didn't waste any time gettin into that box... So how are they?Never mind. Just found your review. Definitely did not waste any time. The only thing that got in my way was work. I really wanted to try it young and go through the box slowly to see if I could taste a difference through the aging process. Great as a young cigar and will see if this gets better. Positives: cream Negatives:now I have one less than I started with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am now the proud owner of 245 dip4 , I am fighting Habanos SA a losing battle at the rate of 1 dip 3 per week , but I will not go down quietly!!!

bassman Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Back to my 2002s- Boli CE & VR Famoso both very nice & starting to get an aged flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mm12 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 2010 Ramon Allones Belicoso. Just awesome. Full bodied, earth, chocolate, stewed fruit, then Christmas cake and vanilla, then vanilla, caramel, and coffee. Super rich. 95-96. Best young cigar I've had by a mile. With how good these are and how quickly they sold out, it would be a sin if these aren't in line to become regular production cigars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverickdrinker Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Asia Pacific RE Bolivar Short Bolivar while grilling ginger soy chicken and eggplant I hear you about the RA regional releases. Would love to see the sublime, gordito and piramides vitolas become regular production. They are fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramon_cojones Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 While I have never really been the biggest fan of the "Daily Smoke" thread... I have to say how great it is that so many are now including pictures of cigars as the take their journeys.So for the extra trouble it takes to snap a pic and post it along with the comments, I say "bravo" and thank you! -Piggy agreed which is why my first couple of posts have included pics, I usually don't like reading text in this thread if it isn't accompanied by a pic Re: monte A, had an 03 awhile back and thought it was a great stick I'd probably rate it about a 92 and I have one more waiting for a nice summer day where I have 2.5 hours to kill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverickdrinker Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 an 2008 opus X robusto; not ready yet; still a youngster. Like a wild mustang that needs to be tamed. Boomin flavours that does not stop; has the depth to go the long haul; will revisit in a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
