having never smoked one, that's a succinct summation of my knowledge of this particular cigar ...

They are really strong, spicey, and smoke sooooo slowly. Even the aroma is strong. My wife came out to the proch when I was smoking the first one and asked "what the hell is that?". I like these very much, just wish they had a cuban corona size available.

Just to clarify, that's our front proch, not the back proch.

Smoked one of these the other day. Normally, I don't go for a cigar this strong, but I liked the flavor of this one, even though it made me punch drunk for awhile.

Are they better on the front porch or the back porch?

My personal preference is for promenades and piazzas, or the occasionally veranda, but lately the proch just seems more comfortable.

any true connoisseur knows that a gazebo is the ONLY place to smoke a cigar.

the regular line is in my top ten for all time favorites, so I am quite excited to try the new Joya.

Found one of these today ... I always char the foot of the cigar evenly and well when lighting it before taking a puff ... I could tell by the aroma of the smoke that it was a strong one ... from first puff to last, this baby is as strong and full-bodied a cigar as I've ever smoked ... came as close to knocking me on my butt as any I've ever smoked and for those of you who know my taste, that's saying something.
This is clearly not a good smoke on an empty stomach ... These could get to be a big-time favorite in a hurry ...

I got a 5-pack of the jawbreakers on the way - 4-1/2X60. Will try to let the first one age for a few days. Let's compare notes later. A lot of people are excited about this line.

That's the same one I smoked, El ... it sorta branded itself on me ... Rook, if I'd smoked that one at the time of night you made your post, it'd probably have knocked me unconscious .. that strong that late, I'd have been in a coma for the night ...

Smoked one of these tonite OTT. Couldn't wait. The little buggers sang the siren song. Beautiful little fireplugs. An asskicker with a taste as fat as it looks. 6 months or more of age and this could be one of the ones. Better buy more before the word gets out.
