Cigar thread 2.0

After three years in the humidor these Rocky Patel junior Maduros finally taste pretty darn good. Proof that time may turn a piece of dog shit into something worth having.

We blended a barber pole on one of the first runs to Nicaragua. It went the opposite direction. Even after 5 years I couldn’t make it through the first third.
 
I have a weakness for San Andreas wrappers so I tend to grab one when I see a new one (to me).

I am disappoint. This had to have skunked. Something was definitely not right.

I’ve tried a few Rocky Patels hoping to like them. But too many burn issues and dull or bitter flavors for me. Local brick and mortar always hosts Rocky.

I’ve learned it’s just not the brand for me. Sorry to hear the disappointment.

There's a few boxes of Frank Redux available at this site, I just grabbed a few boxes. Hopefully they're as good as the original release! Everyone is sold out, these are the last boxes I could find:

Swear, I think cigars have either become more popular or people are just collecting these things and selling them for higher profit..

I started smoking cigars when the Mummy series and the Little Monsters set was released.. Boxes would be sitting on the shelves even into December. Now they are selling out during pre-orders

It’s both.
 
I started smoking cigars when in the sandbox for months on end and there's just nothing to do. Plus, Cubans were very available. Nothing quite like a Cuban Montecristo #2 outside the tent when it's 125* out. Lol.
Tonight I am having a Rocky Patel anniversary Maduro along with Turkey101 neat..
 
Late night and insomnia kicking in.. nothing to do tomorrow so figured I’d light one up, have a drink, and watch a movie. Should knock me out afterwards.

might as well start the season with a Viaje Zombie and a Hellraiser flick

Don't smoke too many cigars now that I hardly ever drink liquor. But loved Drew estate acid; blue Blondie for something smooth and mellow, red nasty to accompany some smooth bourbon.
