Hey laker1963, I've enjoyed your posts for a while now and from the very beginning I noticed the comment at the bottom of your posts about being a cigar whore...never understood that until now...I've become one also.

JUST ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE...

I saw the figurado at my local B&M this past weekend. Mmmm did it look delicious. $9.50 was a little steep for the price, but I may have to go grab a couple just on Kuzi's recommendation.

Did they have any Double Toro's? If they did, maybe you could get one of each and be the judge between the two vitola's,

They do have both, laker. My problem is I would buy them both and want to let them rest for about 6-9 months - lol, what good would that do for our experiment?

My favs are in my bio! You should do the same!

Every time you call in on your Ccom order, I suggest saying "All Hail the Beard" before you hang up. It's like a secret handshake.

Well for our little experiment it wouldn't help at all.

I know what the Double Toro's are like, one day I may try one of the figurado's to see if they are as good. But with a better rating then the Figurado's got and with what experience I have with the DT's I don't think the Figurado's are any better. I usually don't like Torp's as much anyway, because halfway thru each cigar you pick up bitter tastes from the restricted air flow.
Some guys like that, but I prefer the open flow from a well cut Toro and that is the same with these DT's. I will try a "V" in the Figurado one day, to compare, but I'm already betting I will still prefer the Toro's.

At any rate, I'm betting that we will be back here talking this same stuff in about, what did you say 6 - 9 months?? LOL.
