Guys...I've heard good things about the Warlock, too. I've never personally smoked it but the guys I trust vouch for it.
I've just got done feeding Flor...planning to light one up later when wifey gets back and gives me a break.

My delivery arrived from Cigars International... I ordered a sweet "92+ Rated" sampler... some nice brands in the mix, for $35 (!!!). Also got my five-pack of Cafe Con Leche, with the five Moontrance cigars for wifey
Spent the past two days smoking Tabaks... Cafe Con Leche is a freaking winner... ESPECIALLY when you pair it with a nice strong coffee with caramel creamer. This evening I smoked the "Dulce" Tabak Especial... like the CCL, only bigger and minus the maduro foot/cap.

Last night...I'm so lucky to smoke these Montecristos Edmundo...sublime.
Today @ golf...Shingle Creek in Orlando...mediocre play but not the cigars...
Tabak Especial Cafe Con Leche...I've got 20 boxes so I must love them.
Trinidad Robusto Extra...extra special mojo in this cigar...
Padron 1926 40th...what a lovely Padron...always and even ash no matter how much I screw up the lighting...
2006 Ashton VSG Illusione...7yrs of aged greatness...I had 12 of these...down to 4...

Jon, you've ruined me with those Cafe Con Leches... they taste like freaking candy, now only the "best" non-infused cigars taste good to me LOL.
Tried the Alec Bradley "Family Blend" Churchill the other night. A good smoke that didn't really develop until the final third, I definitely wouldn't have given it the 90+ rating it supposedly earned. I have the same stick in a Robusto, I'll try it again in a week or so and consider the Churchill a mulligan.
Yesterday I had a Don Pepin Garcia "Cuban Classic". Excellent draw, nice even ash, superb construction, and a ton of flavor. I kept getting whiffs of a floral/herbal note coming from the cigar as it burned post-puff... a definite treat and reminded me of the Flor De Las Antillas. Will definitely revisit this one in the future...
First pic is the AB Family Blend, next two pics are the Don Pepin.

Ended up enjoying a Cafe Con Leche last night. I was actually texting Bill about it as well 
I ended up having the family leave around 7:30ish so I ended up enjoying a smoke before bed while watching the season finale of the Walking Dead! I love that show!

Agreed
I think MB-World members buy more CCL's than other forums, LMAO... So simple but so delish!
Honestly before I "green-light" the Pepin, I'll have to smoke another one. That's my personal rule, even if I'm blown away with the first one.
As for the Flor De Las Antillas, it truly is worth all the hype. I've posted a few pics of the ones I've had, it is without a doubt box worthy.
Problem is, most places are back-ordered, and they're not exactly cheap.
I loved every FDLA I had so far, each one was consistent. Excellent construction that burns evenly, effortless draw, smokes a lot like the Oliva V Melanio but seems to have a *slightly* stronger note. As mentioned, it smelled fantastic while the smoke was trailing off the foot. Even the aftertaste was good.
Not a matter of "if", but "when" I'll be getting a box.

I had to buy another humidor for my surplus of boxes...the patio man cave I had built for my golf clothes and unread comic books now holds the back up stash. I shifted most of the surplus boxes from my other humidors into this cabinet humidor...I'll shift the other surplus boxes from my office humidors into this one, too. You would think 10 humidors would be enough... PS...Yea my wife thinks I have a problem.

Speechless.
If you ever have too many boxes of Padron/Cafe Con Leches on your hands, I know a guy in Murfreesboro that could use a box LOL
Seriously though, stunning collection. Well done sir.
Gave the AB Family Blend another go... same result. Not a smoke I would turn town by any stretch, but not box-worthy IMO.
Smoked an AB Tempus this evening, just to get the taste out of my mouth. MUCH better

Jonny, ya kill me with that collection of yours! You own better/more cigars than many retail shops I've frequented. Well done, sir!
On another note, I'm dying to try those Liga Privada Ferals, where do you guys get'em???

Worlds best cigar collection! You have more then the stores do
Just stunning and out of this world. Like I said many times before I cannot wait to see this next time I come down. I am just mindblown. Love the pics. One hell of a collection. I think you have every Padron model ever made

IIPA and scotch drinker here. fairly new to the cigar game. i've had some tabak's as my first smoke and really liked the coffee flavor they had.
recent smoke that i've enjoyed was the sancho panza dulcinea, nice medium-full body smoke with tons of smoke and nice ash. draw's pretty tight though.
recently had a flor de oliva that my buddy had aged for 3 months and that was a solid smoke as well.

I have to give it my mandatory "second puff" before I deem it box-worthy for myself, but it's among the best I've had in recent months.
