Hi Folks, I have made many purchases this past year with CigarBid and want to share my thoughts on some of the smokes I tried. Most of the cigars are good, but there have been some stinkers. I bought a box of Havana Sunrise Maduro Robusto. These were wrapped so tight, Linda Lovelace could not get a draw. All I got was a headache from sucking too hard! Too bad because what I could taste, tasted pretty good. Another non-winner is the Santa Rosa Maduro Torpedo. This was one nice looking (dark chocolate) stick with teriffic aroma. The problem again was with the draw and it also tunneled. I have let them age for months, but still no luck. A box of 5 Vegas Dbl Coronas had some sticks where the wrapper disintigrated, but most were OK. For the winners, i am currently smoking some Astral Perfeccion. These are awesome. Excellent draw and taste and pretty cheap. Ashton Corona, say no more.
Perdomo2 Torfecto, shaped like a dog turd but lucily doesn't taste like it. Full flavor but not overpowering. RYJ Churchill, Puros Indios Roth., Macanudo Hyde Park and La Flor Dominicana were also good in my book. I just turned 40 so my wife bought me a couple of Monty #2 (DR), one of the best I have had, and I have had a few. I keep trying for these on CigarBid, but someone keeps bidding $11.99 each! Thanks for listening and lets here your favs!
