awesome smokes as always. hope all the MBWorld BOTL have been well.

had the opportunity to light up the Opus XXX courtesy of Jon. awesome smoke, wasn't as creamy or flavorful as the opus super belicoso but a still a good stick. thanks again John

also lit up the montecristo media noche #2 recently, my buddy's was awesome, perfect draw and awesome flavors, sweet nuances throughout the smoke with nice transitions. mine on the other hand, was way over packed. had difficulty lighting the damn thing, and the draw was ridiculously tight and ended up having to poke the stick a couple times.

More...
  • LFD Double Ligero "The Chisel"
  • Liga Privada T52
  • Partagas 1845 Black
  • PDR Reserva Limitada
  • Nub Cameroon
  • 5 Vegas "Cask Strength"
I've really been impressed with the 5 Vegas Classic... it's my new "go-to" mild smoke for under $3 a stick. Notes of baked bread, with some toasted almond and creaminess to it. Reminds me a bit of a Montecristo Original from Cuba... yes, that smooth. Ordered a sampler of 5 Vegas and the Cask Strength is no slouch either. Jury is still out on the 5 Vegas "High Primings" version... first one wasn't so hot.

I just upload mine as attachments... but some people like just being able to scroll w/o having to open them all separately... I'm just OCD and like them all to behave themselves in the corner

No need to apologize, I know everyone loves the hi-res cigar **** that Jon posts

Figured I would let you guys know about the good news... I WON A CIGAR PRIZE!

CigarNubs.com is a neat review site written in a language I relate to... it's down-to-earth, straightforward reviews and always 4-5 pictures to go with each review. It has helped me find some great sticks, and avoid some bad ones.

Anyways, to celebrate their one year anniversary, they had a giveaway.

http://cigarnubs.com/2013/08/07/ciga...-ten-giveaway/

There were over 1,700 entries, and I won with a single entry! One happy kid right here

Some hardcore sticks in the lineup... many I've never had. Really excited about the Ashton ESG, Opus X, and the Mule Kick.

And I'll finally get a chance to try that Ramon Buesis "Genesis" haha

Cheers,

Cheers,
I'm guessing you're John? Seriously though, congratulations. That's an awesome lineup of smokes. I'm super stoked for you and super jealous at the same time. Please provide us with reviews of all 10 sticks! Looking forward to it!

Yes sir, the one and only!!

I am completely humbled and astonished... I NEVER (and I mean NEVER) win anything online... the algorithm randomization simply doesn't smile on me... until this time!

Will definitely be reviewing the sticks and giving you guys the updates.

The main guy on that review site, Chris, has reviewed several Liga Privada sticks (Rats, Pigs, 9's, UF-13, and 52's) but has never seen the L40. My local B&M in Murfreesboro just got in a box of L40... So I'm swinging by today and picking up a few, and I'm sending him one to review for posterity's sake (and as a "thank you" for the sweepstakes).

Still in shock that I won. It won't sink in until I open the box and see those beautiful sticks.

The Four Kicks "Mule Kick" is a rare stogie -- only 500 boxes of 10 made, ever.

Kreuz, congrats on the win! And you're gonna love that RB "Genesis"! I just smoked another last night, very tasty. I believe that Cigars International just put them on sale...Might be time to grab another box!

Had I known you were looking to try out the RB Genesis then I would've sent you a couple. I picked up a box earlier in the year but just finished off my last stick last week. I have no problem sharing my stogies with fellow Brothers of the Leaf. If I create a post of my purchases and you guys are interested, feel free to shoot me a PM and I'll gladly share what I can with you guys.

I love my boating! I go out about one time a week when I am here. Usually a cigar to go with it. I always make time to play golf with Jon when am in town. The GTR ride was just amazing!

Thanks man! I actually smoked the Genesis last night... WHAT A STICK!!! I mean, yes the wrapper had some loose edges here and there, and the flavor wasn't overly complex, but it did absolutely nothing wrong and the flavor was bold (yet creamy), the ash held on forever, and the aroma was very satisfying. Absolutely a box-worthy budget stick.

I appreciate the offer man!! Same goes here, if I get a box of something you want to try, let me know.

I have a list of "sticks to try" but I never get in a huge hurry... I smoke them as they come along. If I'm blown away, I'll buy a couple more before making the box-worthy call. Was definitely impressed with the Genesis... I had the biggest size they offer, and the flavor profile was very nice

Meeting Jon is definitely on my bucket list... as is a ride in that GT-R
