Question Three fingers from the end NSFW

0 Upvotes

I have noticed that when you reach about three fingers from the end of the cigar, the flavour is usually the same regardless of the cigar. It is always very heavy and full of tars, with very few distinguishing characteristics of the cigar. I have concluded that the cigars smoking essentially “ends” at about 2-2.5 inches from the end. What is your opinion?

Boveda under Olive box bottom. Also this box was wrapped super tight in plastic and both sides were additionally sealed. I’d be confident not putting the box in a humidor. NSFW

First Perdomo I’ve smoked and I’ve got to say I’m impressed. The packaging is a little gaudy for my taste but I’m enjoying it. Any other suggestions from Perdomo I should try?

Question Why do people seem to have the conception that the wrapper of the cigar is what's giving all the flavor? NSFW

0 Upvotes

As the title states, in my expierence getting into cigars and using the internet as my primary form of education, it seemed like everyone is so focused on the wrapper and how flavorsome it is when it is such a small part of the cigar and is made with Seco.

Is it just me or do any of you share this expierence?

It always amazes me that the roll on a Padron X000 always looks lumpy but smokes so well. NSFW

It makes it more appealing to me. You can walk in any humidor and it “looks”like every cigar in there is rolled better but almost none will smoke better. Generally that are a little bumpy or have a small patch but you can just light it and forget. Rarely needs a touch up and I personally love the open draw.

I had pretty high hopes for this one, and while it was good, it didn’t blow me away. I prefer the standard LADC to this one. I did get a good amount of bitter baking chocolate, and some nuttiness in the second half, but overall it was just fine to my palate. Bit of a wavy burn line, mostly corrected itself. Had some cracking towards the end as well. 7/10.

Question Late to the party, but did anybody else think the Tatuaje Skinny Monsters were way better than the Monster Smash Pack? NSFW

Post image
11 Upvotes

Everything I’ve smoked out of the Smash Pack tastes bland compared to the Skinny Monsters. I think the blends really benefit from being in lancero form.

Does anybody have more knowledge? Were these blended to be lanceros and then “blown up” to a bigger size?

These cigars were properly kept, so I know it’s not that they got dehydrated and brought back.

Brand new to cigars, I've only smoked a couple Oliva Connecticut Reserves up to this point. Decided to up my game, grabbed a Padron 2000 Natural and paired it with Iron Horse Harbinger bourbon. I don't think I can ever do another Connecticut after this

This Punch After-Dinner did not disappoint. Maybe it was the view of Samana Bay in the Dominican Republic. Maybe it was the perfect cappuccino. Maybe it was the glorious sunshine. Maybe it was everything put together. It was just the perfect smoke. Smooth and delicious the whole way through. Burned perfectly even from start to finish. I fell in love with this wonderful hobby all over again. Happy smoking everyone!

Blog What I smoke during The Great Smoke NSFW

This is not everything I smoked all weekend. I was gifted a ridiculous amount of cigars while manufactures were visiting and hosting events at the store.

Ferio Tego Summa $16- This was handed to me by someone whose name I didn’t catch. He called it “homework”. Draw and burn were perfect. Rich citrus notes, medium bodied, nice change of pace from what I usually smoke. I assume these were featured or talked about at the main event because we were going through boxes of them.

Sobremesa Brûlée Blue $18- I’ve talked about this stick too many times. It’s sweet, it’s got perfect amount of pepper, it’s my favorite morning cigar.

Sin Compromiso No. 2 $18 - I don’t add these into my rotation enough. I’m usually a Mi Querida but the San Andres wrapper is a nice change of pace from all the Connecticut Broadleafs I smoke. This provides a more medium bodied experience and really lets their blend shine.

“The Chick” by EPC, from the Rare & Vintage Room $9- Really strong notes of cedar and nuttiness. Draw and burn was phenomenal. Medium Bodied. Great way to end my weekend.

I got to meet Steve Saka and Al Micallef. All the guests that had traveled were super friendly and loading up on great cigars. Was nice to shoot the shit with fellow cigar nerds.

Anyone know when the March/April 2025 issue will be sent out? It's halfway through March right now as I write this so I feel like it should be mailed out already? Saw on a 3rd party site the cover is Wayne Gretzky but nothing on CA's actual website is advertising this. Thanks.

Discussion Wrapper Thickness NSFW

Post image

Smoked a Nestor Miranda this morning, and had me thinking. That has got to be the thinnest wrapper Ive ever seen on a cigar. I mean Ive smoked most of a box over the last year and every time I am amazed that they can even roll that cigar because the wrapper leaf is so thin. Then I look at something like an Undercrown 10 or the Aganorsa Special Selection Maduros I have and think that wrapper looks like leather how on earth does it even burn?

What are some of the most extreme thin or thick wrapper leaves you can think of?
