    no problem! just got done smoking it and WOW was it good! a gorgeous day and a beautiful, tasty cigar with plenty of flavor and paired well with a Maker's Mark with a splash of coke :) I have 7 or so resting and once those are gone I will definitely be getting a box! Glad you enjoyed yours Alex!

    I love the Triple A. I'll have to try pairing one with some bourbon this weekend. I'm out of Maker's at the moment. Woodford Reserve will have to do.

    I actually have an Erin Go Bragh!! I was thinking about having a glass of Jameson and lighting one up tonight after the kiddies are asleep. (I have plenty of back-ups, in case it's not to my liking.)

    La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte. It has a green band. And they are fabulous.

    Did you end up having one? If so, how was it?

    I had one. It wasn't bad. Although, I think it would have paired better with a Guiness. The Irish whiskey-infused cigar/glass of Irish whiskey combo was overkill..... But as far as the stick goes here's a short review:

    Without getting into it too much, pre-light it felt kind of spongey. It had an almost floral tobacco smell to it. Like a very sweet whiskey. It cut and lit without any issues. Draw was fine. Taste was a little on the bitter side, at first. The burn was clean and the smoke out put was average. It started to come together about an inch in. Then I could really pick up the whiskey flavors on my tongue. Which is why the glass of whiskey became redundant. It was pretty much as advertised: Mild to medium. Smooth and creamy with a hint of whiskey on the finish. Kind of like an Irish Carbomb (that's a shot of Bailey's and whiskey dropped into a glass of Guiness, in case you didn't know) I'll probably smoke one again next year. But next time I'll pair it with a Guiness.
