Just had my first Gurkha, a Regent torpedo. Awesome smoke, if all Gurkhas are this good, I'm sold.

Don't count on it...in my opinion, the Regent is somewhat of a standout, and one of the few I like. I used to like Gurkhas in general until I started exploring a more diverse sampling of cigars, after that Gurkhas seemed boring and overpriced. I do like a couple though, the Regent and Centurion being the ones I can think of that I like.

Good news, because I have a few Centurians sitting at the house waiting on me right now. Are they similar to the Regents then?

This is one (the only one?) j0z3r and I disagree on. I don't care for the Regent at all. I do like the Centurian a lot, though. Obviously, I don't find them very similar.

I don't find them similar at all either...I think the regent is so-so. I love the centurians.

Tonight I reluctant dragged out a vedadero that I got from COTM. Turns out I was pretty prescient. Very blah, tight draw, not a great burn and an utter lack of flavor. I read a review that said it's creamy, but I didn't find that at all. Granted, I'm not a huge fan of mild anyway, but some of the milds I've had still have great flavor. I have another someone sent me, I won't be in a hurry to smoke it.

Just one for me today, I had a bit of an allergy attack early on and it left my nose stuffed and my throat scratchy, the medicine took a good couple hours to take hold and right the wrongs of allergies. The cigar was a good choice however, a La Aurora 100 Años belicoso. This one is billed as full bodied, I disagree with that though, to me it was medium-full and closer to medium than full for that matter. It was a good cigar though, had that characteristic Dominican tobacco flavor with a pre-light aroma of sweet, pure tobacco. This is a cigar I'd recommend.

Retired to the man-cave downstairs to unwind after a busy day. Had a Montecristo 2 which was compliments of a botl here, it was a very very enjoyable smoke for an hour plus and sipped some good bourbon ( rare breed barrell proof turkey) this is ultra smooth and needs no mixer. All in all , a good combo with the mc 2 .

Had a Don Diego Aniversario. Today is my birthday and my wife had gotten me a box of them. For those who haven't tried it, it's Don Diego's 4oth anniversary cigar. I tried one a few weeks ago and loved it but couldn't find it at any of the tobacco stores. The only place that had it, for some reason, was ABC. So my wife went in and bought the last box. Nice and mild and smooth. The wrapper on this cigar is very dry which is interesting.

Happy b day Shawn ....

Thanks :)

Yes, happy birthday. Sounds like you had a good one.

Nothing for me today. The weather was uncooperative, and looks to be all week.

Well, it looks like there is a consensus among everyone that the Centurians are not like the Regents, but are good, so I'm happy about having a few at home waiting on me, lol.

I just got done with a Rocky Patel Signature. The first inch was a little harsh, but then it mellowed out alot. The flavor continued to develop the longer I smoked it, I was very happy overall with this stick. It also suprised me with is strengh, for such a mellow cigar it was stronger than what I thought it would be. I smoked it first thing this morning, so it hit me pretty hard, lol.

Had a 5 Vegas Gold Robusto tonight. I got it in a free sampler. I have to say that the GOld is the one I like the most out of the 5 Vegas so far. However, this one even though it was creamy it was a little sour. Still a decent smoke though.
