2011 Padron (Traditional) No. 3000

Extremely tasty and very smooth without being too mild. About a mild-medium to medium actually.

Perfect draw,burn and construction

Just an excellent smoke https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...88c2fde066.jpg

Then there are blenders with more 'blends' than anyone can keep track of and yet constantly rolling out new ones; think Rocky and Gurkha. To me it gives the impression that they don't know what they're doing or don't even care just as long as there are cylindrical brown things on shelves with their bands on them. (I'm not willing to wade thru a mountain of crap just to find a decent smoke in the mix. With the few cigars I smoke, I'd like to actually smoke a decent one, not research a pile of garbage.) Gurkha then takes the extra step by trying to pass themselves off as the most coveted, uber-premium of the premiums and by putting some ridiculous MSRP on practically every stick to try and back that claim up. I call it the 'gilded turd marketing approach'. Having fallen victim to a few gilded turds in my day (other products - not cigars), I have come to resent any company or salesman who markets in this way and simply won't buy any of their products.

Thankee Kayla and a Very Good Morning to You, best wishes for a great Day coasting towards the Weekend.

Edit: Update, just checked and it's only the two of us here right now. Was going to call it a Night...wouldn't be right to just slope leaving You alone in the Night So, more Coffee coming right up and will light a cigar to keep You company, tho a few miles apart, Looking at the hue of the cigar You're burning...figure to match as well as i can so it'll be a San Cris Elegancia.

One More before the Night Ends.
Kayla made Me do it.
But, the Coffee's fine and I expect this cigar will be nice as well.

Only had one of the Purples and another one, I forget which, that were part of a bomb.
Had never heard of them, but they were extremely tasty smokes and definitely plan to get more

Well, since @Ciro graced us with his presence, I figured I break out a smoke from his tray in the humidor.

Ciro - you owe me an update on the car(s)!

La Palina 2016 LE Goldie Dalia

Was dominated by the unique aged taste I commonly get, but usually only from cigars about 10 years or more. Was very pronounced for only 5 years.

Still, tasty smoke and decent burn and perfect draw and construction https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...014ad4e1db.jpg
