sightunseen: Choba:Haven't played this yet, would like to partake. plus need to free up some space. best I sent TatuajeIV the sticks since it's currently his turn. You can be next after him.
TatuajeVI:A tragedy is about to ensue. I lit up cigar A and within 5 minutes realize that I have to leave the house immediately. This is so unforunate, I am enjoying this very much, but I have no choice. I was planning on working on a research paper for school, so I sent myself what I had written at school. Balls. I wrote it in the latest version of Word, and my computer has the older version of Word. No dice on opening it, so that means I have to get my ass into school right away. It's due in a couple hours. in ten minutes of smoking cigar A: burn was great. Construction was fantastic. A medium-light shade in color, a little toothy wrapper, nice construction. Flavors were a little nutty, some light sweetness on the finish, and a good bit of spice through the nose and in the back of the throat. I was really enjoying it. Boo!Sincerely sorry, Tony. I have to guess something, though. It reminds me of the Don Pepin Series JJ. My guess would be a Dominican or Nicaraguan wrapper - habano or sumatra wrapper. I'll guess the JJ since that's what it reminds me of, but it's a shot in the dark.
TatuajeVI:Well, I got to cigar B tonight while finishing up Plato's Phaedo. Absolutely fantastic read, btw. Bardyard and hay smell before the lighting up. Wrapper was thinner than cigar A, so definitely not Nicaraguan. My guess would be Honduran or Dominican. Lighter shade, but not as light as a Connecticut. Possibly a sun grown, not sure. Lots of deep veins, a few imperfections. Cut with my Xicar as usual. Nice pre-light draw. So sadly, the flavor was very light in this one. For the first 25 minutes all I could pick up was hay and paper. Almost non-existent. After that, there was a little leather that came up, but still very bland. I gave her a solid 45 minutes to see if it would pick up, but I put it down with a good 30 minutes left. With the lack of flavor, I feel I probably shouldn't take a guess as I suppose it was just a bad cigar. I'll be smoking cigar C tomorrow - I should have time.
TatuajeVI:Heh, Ecuadorian Sun Grown wrapper, Dominican. You are hilarious that you give those out to moochers. For about the same price (ok, $2 a stick), you can grab 5 Vegas Golds - they might actually enjoy the cigar, and best of all you can smoke them yourself! It's raining, not sure if cigar C will happen today. I'll get to it if I can, though.
