81070 - DBL Extra Viejo Double Prensado
Came across this at my local today, only grabbed one, but im gonna have to hunt more down. Excellent out of the gate, have to put some to rest and see how they go.

81071 Rocky Patel Edge I believe corojo from darklord trade. Spose it could be habano. Started off great. Lots of baking spice and cinnamon cedar on retro. I was worried i was going to thoroughly enjoy another RP.

After first ash drop it started burning crooked half the ash was rock hard the other half loose and flakey. Tried to work it out with a couple touchups but it continued to only burn one side and went out completely twice. The flavors left completely and I tossed it. The first inch was pretty damn good tho. If this were new I'd blame overhumidification but it's been in my desktop since 2/5. Feeling the rest of the cigar up to the head half is super soft half is rock hard. Just a bad roll. Mightve been a decent cigar otherwise.

81072 Class 34 Fugazi "compare to Padron 64" uhm... no. Draw extremely tight, flavors are mild with a hint of spray paint.

Kept on and it started to open up 1.5" in. Some baking spices a hint of cedar, and aromatic hydrocarbons on the finish. Extremely thin bodied, minimal smoke. Firm white ash took a tap to drop. Flavors are mild at best. The single ash tap is all I'm willing to put into this one. I already went too far.

This is where searching for the good cheap chit ends up costing more because of how much bad cheap chit is out there. Paid $4.50 ea in a sampler of 8. Hoping they're just inconsistent and the others are decent. The first one I tried was quite lovely, I was looking forward to trying the padron knockoff.

81073 Padron Executive - basically just a 7.5" long x000 natural.

It tastes like every Padron x000 I've had. Draw is perfect, burn is perfect, solid medium profile. Nice rich texture, earthy flavors, lil pepper, lil spice, mineral finish. Paid $7per. Got em in January so they're still young. But I'm not ending my night with a bad cigar.

81074: Gurkha Park Ave Connie Churchill my first try on this one. Seems like nothing is there.

81075 - AJF Man o war
This cigar has been extremely consistent from the first one I smoked and I've smoked 50 of them or so. Nice spicy, strong cigar.
