Bill...headed to Torrey Pines in the Fall. I'll be calling you for some golf and stogies.
Golf today...just 2...my regular Cafe Con Leche and a Padron 1964 Toro...40 front and 39 back...can't complain about the round.
Well after golf, we had my wife's baby shower today...my only request was that none of the guys would be part of those inane baby shower games...SO we were relegated to my brother-in-laws garage with cigars, scotch, and poker...we were good with that.
We had some choice smokes...not to mention scotch.
Aging Room Quattro F55 Concerto Churchill...a new box I bought this week...HIGHLY recommend after smoking this tonight.
2006 Ashton VSG Illusion...what can I say...a VSG is great but one 7 years aged is perfection.
Montecristo (non-Cuban) Epic...a stogie that my other cigar buddy gave me tonight...box worthy.
Opus X Perfecxion 77 Shark...a milder version of the Anejo shark...great in its right...
And scotch selection...we (6 guys) had a glass of each and some of us 2 or 3 rounds...I'm buzzed as I type this...

I honestly do not even know where to get them as all of our stores here in NY stopped ordering them. The Padron's look great as always Jon

Liga Privada T52 and Padron 3000
Ended up meeting up with two good friends of mine from Lebanon. We all enjoy cigars. They both enjoyed a fresh hand rolled in house brand while I enjoyed the Liga Privada T52. A solid great cigar as always and the Padron 3000 Unfortunatly I left my phone in the car.

Yeah.. it's a beast.. it's running about 1k hp and doesn't weight all that much.. we went to the "sand drags" and tore a bunch of others up pretty well but only got it up to about 100mph.. on sand it's pretty fast.. it's not smooth out there at all.. i should post some video.. these cars are fun as hell though.. they handle getting air pretty well and go straight up walls of sand a few hundred yards long.. check you tube and search "glamis" for some highlights.. always a bunch of hot chicks in bikini's too.. Goodtimes.
Someday I hope to drive one. Maybe I can rent one out in Las Vegas?

Looks like Jonny is set for a few more morning rounds of golf!
Bill, your buddy's sand rail is amazing! What does he drive on the street??

Flavor reminds me of a Padron 3000, but without that slight chocolate/cocoa note. They've recently come out with a Cameroon (light blue label) that I've yet to try. That being said, I've never met a Cameroon I didn't like. Silky smooth... Thompson also carries a Cusano 1997 (silver/orange wrapper) that is scarce as hen's teeth nowadays... if you can find a Cusano of any model, grab it as they're inexpensive but reliable. Like a cheeseburger, in a way

George...that is the Liga Privada, the Único Serie A!, a T52 style blend. I liked it...not as much as the T52 but still a good cigar.

I haven't taken any pics of recent smokes as I haven't had many lately - it's been too damn cold! Things started warming up lately, so I'll be puffing again soon. I'm gonna give you a call as well.

You referring to the Cusano 18? They can be a bit tricky to find -- I know Thompson carries them, but it's rare to find them in a cigar shop.

Jon, I owe you some thanks.
Tried two per your recommendation -- The Epic and the Tabak...
The Epic was a great smoke. Very mild (characteristic of all Montecristos I've smoked) and the cigar had a chewy/leathery construction. I tend to prefer them a little firmer with a looser draw, but this one did not disappoint. Cigar came into its own at about the halfway mark... hard to put down.
As for the Tabak, I found the maduro (Red Eye) as well as the lighter one (Dulce)... Couldn't find the Cafe Con Leche, so I grabbed the dulce since the body is the same wrapper as the CCL. Boy, what a great flavor. I've never wished for a cigar-sized roach clip, until tonight. Delicious. I WILL be ordering a box of the CCLs hasta pronto.
Long ashes to you guys!!
