Number C
Pretty clean roll 5x maybe 51 lol.
I’ll call this a pretty nice double cap. Tight seems with a couple veins appearance falls in the middle of A and B with B being perfect

1st. Perfect draw once again
Black pepper on the initial light up
A quick little touch up just to make sure things begin correctly
Some sort of spice I’m not familiar with has appeared. It’s almost spicy but not what I’d call red pepper
Spicier than red pepper is what we will call this
Burn is very wavy but I’m not going to interfere at this point
A sort of creamy taste has stepped in easing up the spicier than red pepper flavor
Medium plus flavor with medium body
2nd.
This stick has been all over the place creamy rich smoke now with no pepper or spicier than red pepper
A specific wood of a type I can’t name and very creamy now.
Barely full bodied
Medium plus almost full flavor
Ash hangs on well but is much softer than the first two sticks above
Burn line is irregular almost like points of a crown or some such
Spicier than red pepper has checked back in replacing the cream
Strange wood is still there
Final 3rd
More of the not red pepper burn correction involved
Body + flavor are just at full
Finish has become longer throughout the entire smoke
Ash is fairly flakey
Wood is still here but it seems to be a different exact wood than the original wood We will call this a heavier wood

Very rich and building towards full
We’ve got heavier wood and spicier than red pepper at this point. A good half retro begins to burn the nose

1 1/8 th left I’m gonna guess this is the top tier.
Guessing this due to the way this cigar was all over the place in an organized manner.

Country of origin. No freakin clue. Not strong enough for Nicaragua not sweet. Heck maybe Cuba.

I feel better about the first two guesses.

TL DR. Number A mid range Cuban ?
Number B budget house blend Dominican ?
Number C top shelf Cuban. ?

For him and I??? Super cheap. Pretty expensive for outsiders though. I’d jump in soon as possible. He takes care of the fine details though

A medium weight LFR from ZRX arrived today with a message written on it... "Platinum Member Camping LLC". Contents are a bit confusing...
1 - one-way plane ticket to the west coast
1 - Kingcamp Plus Size Flannel Sleeping Bag
A variety box of 21 MREs, enough for 7 days
A box of Preparation H cleansing wipes
A family size container of Vaseline
And something called a "Kentucky baby rattle"
My question is, is this a camping invitation? And if so, do I need to bring my own toothbrush? 😕 😊







But seriously, he hit me with a nice looking threefer of unbanded mystery smokes, a bag of top quality banded smokes and a kickazz bottle of booze.

First, the mystery three...
#1 - 4.5" x 50ish, tanned leather color.
#2 - 6.2" x 50ish, milk chocolate color.
#3 - 6.75" x 48ish, dark raisin color, pigtail cap.

An awesome baker's fiver...
- AF Hemingway Signature SG, I think?
- AF 858 RSG
- CLE 25th Anniversary 50x5
- Sin Compromiso No.7
- Sobremesa Brulee Blue
- Tat Tattoo Caballero

And last, but not least, a beautiful 750ml bottle of Buffalo Trace...a bourbon I have yet to try, wanted to, just had problems finding it. I shall crack it and burn one of the mystery cigars tomorrow evening!

Thanks, Z, killer hit man! =d>

Sorry mine is taking so long to get to you. I thought I'd be slick, opt for FedEx to avoid USPS and make record time shipping coast to coast...I was wrong! 🤦

#1 VEGUEROS TAPADOS 2017 (cc)
#2 DREW ESTATE HERRERA ESTELI 2015
#3 MONTE EDMUNDO 2017 (cc)

Really nice reviews Jake. The intention was #1 was low, #2 mid and #3 high but in doing a quick search it seems #2 can be had pretty cheaply nowadays. I was worried about #1 and #3 because cc performance can be questionable at times, especially #1. I've had some of those that were down right fantastic and some that bordered on unsmokeable.

What?!? He failed to get the country of origin correct for the mid? I am appalled 😳

Great reviews and guesses, Jake!

Well I’ve smoked my first Cubans. Dang. #1 smoked like a dream gummy.
I’m a little shocked I got the two Cubans correct.
I mentioned drew estates for the second one. Due to construction and smoke output.
Honestly I was gonna guess cohiba on the last one. But I’ve never burned one so I wasn’t sure how to label it.

I’m pretty happy with my performance

I almost switched # 1 and 2 but I really enjoyed # 1. Well above average.

Thanks gummy

Jake's on a roll. How did you guess Cubans without having smoked any? Are you a prophet?
