Weather is chilly and wet, so a fire in the fireplace, the games on TV. A good day to go for the good stuff.

ISOM 1998 Monte#4 was first to go,
ISOM 1998 Punch Churchill,
Bucanero El Capitan Maduro,
It ain't over yet.

What's you list for the day?

Damn Barry, I'm jealous to say the least. I haven't smoked that many cigars since my fishing trip last Summer. Tonight, I'll opt for a Camacho Diploma to go with some El Tesoro Anejo.

Had a Bolivar Fuerte Oscuro B this AM and just finished a La Flor Dominicana Ligero 500. I may have a La Aurora Maduro Belicoso this evening. Of course I'll watch Law and Order: CI tonight. I love watching Vincent D'Onofrio solve the crimes while Katherine Erbe just stands there.

Started out with a ISOM Monte#2, this was my 1st one! Next a CAO Gold corona, always a favorite of mine. I'm smoking that now & watching the Raider/Jets game! Next I plan on smoking a Flor de Oliva Grand Cameroon Figurado. Go Raiders!

had a Connie #9m this morning. this one was a true second. just nubbed a Griffins Fuerte Robusto, and it was awesome. Not sure what comes after dinner....possibly a RyJ Cedros Deluxe #3 ISOM. Considering a box split with an internet buddy for those, so I want to refresh my opinion of them. BTW, thanks Rookie139 for the introduction to the RyJ, the first one I smoked was awesome.

Mag,

Where did you get the Flor De Oliva figurado? I just won a 5 pack of the torpedoes. Smoking list for the weekend: Monte Cristo Series V (second as good as the first) and a Flor De Oliva robusto.

Started with a Rafael de Gonzales Pantela Extra (Cuban) while chatting with mom (traditional Sunday call), followed by a Montecristo #2 (like Magnafide, from Cuba), and drowned my SF loss-based sorrows in a Padron Executive. If the Raiders lose, I will likely punish myself with a bad Flor de Reyes Churchill, or something depressingly mild and boring like that.

jdrabinski! You did it! Congrats! We will exchange reviews on this!
John & I both recieved ISOM Monte#2's recently. We did an exchange to compare them. He is one heck of a guy! He threw in another cuban & a Padron 5000 as a surprise! Thank You my Friend!!!

Ducati, I got the Flor de Oliva's here on CBid! This one you really have to watch for. I've got them twice now. They are worth watching out for!

Two Hoja de Nicaragua's. I am beginning to love this cigar. My taste buds tell me it's comparable to Fuente Hemingway.

Never had a Big Butt. Got a sampler and tried a corona. Not too bad especially for the price. Kind of tasted like a strong Macanudo.

watched both games out in my shed. Started the day with a PAM, followed by a CAO Amazon, and ended with an Opus X belicoso. Sadly the Opus burned poorly and didn't want to stay lit. First time I've ever had one go bad on me.

Midday -- Cuesta Rey #47 Maduro
Evening -- Partagas SD#4

But the Raiders "smoking" the Jets was the highlight of the day.

Lowman, notice it reads: drive to, and RIDE from
Plus I was there from 12:30 to 8:00PM and there was steamed shrimp and raw oysters, but there was a glow about me.

And I thank CB forum users for tipping me off to those and the Estavan Cruz,(Slimboli). I probably wouldn't have tried them but for the chatter here. Let's keep it under our hats though, don't want to call too much attention to them. ;)
