Sampled my first Joya de Nicaragua Antano 1970 last night.
OH BABY!
Thanks for the tip Sonny_LSU, that was one tasty smoke.

I hope you didn't drive while/during or after smoking the Joya de Nic. They are kick ass smokes.

Tried one of the new churchill sizes night 'for last. Built in intensity all the wayyyyyy dowwwwwnnn. Found the key to avoid the shakes (for me) was to smoke it slow. Still makes me think twice about standing up to quick!!! The antano '70 is a regular in the rotation. Anyone try the Machitos yet?

Glad to be of assistance....one more:
Camacho Corojo Figurado
It has a very unique flavor profile and will set you free. I don't know that it is as ball-bustin' as the Joya, but damn close or equal to.

Unfortunately, CBID doesn't have these...neither does CI.

I second the motion on the "don't smoke it while driving." I tried that last Friday night on a 3-hour trip home. After 2 hours, with 1/3 of the cigar still to go, I had to just say no. I was hammered. Like I had been sitting in the bar all night. Camachos do that to me a tiny bit, but nothing like this one did. Of course, I did the empty stomach thing to boot. I know that didn't help.
