Bucanero El Capitan from madspackler during my dealing with “she/he whose name we don’t say” sympathy beat down on me. It is smoking fantastic.
Thank you!! |

Opus X Lost City Belicoso thanks to Delta1 hand grenade he tucked in my undies at his house....first LC I’ve ever had, the other one I had burned with my big traveldor last year. Much stronger than I anticipated and I thought the LC had a Cameroon wrapper? Great cigar. |

Very surprised by an Honor Among Thieves Trumpeta (guessing an OR because the new bands look way more “refined”).
Thank you CSGAMECOCK. Nice to see you back on from your break. |

Corey Sellers- Room 101 chief cool arrow filerokee- This cigar was amazing from beginning to end. Of course, you can't find them anywhere
Probably better for my budget but wow, I would pay for some more of these |

A point I could not argue with you since my EZ portfolio is limited and my ongoing attempt at hiatus (that I swear will begin next week!) has kept me from purchasing and experiencing many of their smokes. I do believe you and trust your judgement, I know we seem to have similar likes when it comes to many Maduro wrapped smokes. I've only had two of the AMXs and they were spectacular, haven't had either of the two you mentioned...maybe I will get to try one, in the future, if they happen to slip one into my CCOTM mailing. PS...this is NOT a mooch post!  |

^Yeah u have to jump quick on their small batch releases. They're gone in 5-10min usually. Same with their Nomad line as well. |

back in October 2019, Palama sent me some smokes, including an Aladino Corojo Reserve robusto. He taped a note to give the cigar about 6 months before smoking. I dropped the cigar into an overflow box and promptly forgot about it.
Last year, while shopping around to fill some voids in my storage, I came across a deal for a box of Aladino Corojo Reserve robustos. Having forgotten Palama's gift, but seeing other CBidders posting that they smoked them and liked them, I bought a box...smoked a few, thought pretty good...
fast foward: I came across Palama's gifted Aladino Corojo Reserve from a year and a half ago....thought I'd smoke it for comparison...wow...very nice...all the flavor with none of the harshness of the fresher ones...sweet cinnamon and cedar...so my partial box of Aladino Corojo Reserve will now go down for at least a year before I smoke another...
Thanks, Bro! |
| 3432. Author: ZRX1200 | Date: Fri, 4/16/2021, 6:02PM EST | |
Good plan! They are delicious.....The Aladino is far superior to regular CLE IMO, it’s more along the quality lines of the Eroia offerings. |
| 3433. Author: delta1 | Date: Fri, 4/16/2021, 8:28PM EST | |
yes...I really like the Eiroa 1st 20 Years Colorado...among the best new to me cigars I smoked in 2020 |

Irish car bomb '19 I think?
From (possibly) my first trade with benja
Pre-labeling era, but it was specially packed in a benja exclusive rack.
Very good! Thank you Dave!

A rack devoted to Benja bombs? This does not strike me as a frivolous venture |

Excellent memory Daniel! Those were very good especially with morning coffee. I feel pretty special having my own rack in your humidor. I can barely find my shoes these days, let alone be that organized. Glad you enjoyed it. |
