81704: AB Tempus Quadrum (Quadrum is the BP vitola) Robusto
Sorely disappointed. I like this blend and vitola but this one had such awful construction that it was unsmokable after the second inch. This definitely moves AB down a notch in my trust. I bought a 10 pack of Black Market Vandal / Con and every last one had the same problem.

Anyone have an opinion on the Room 101 Namakubi Renfla? Small place has 35% off and I’m wondering if I have room to squeeze a few more sticks into storage.

81707 LFD 1994 with thanks to jakethesnake. My memory fails me on whether or not I've had this one and I think it's the last of Jake's Tag! Cigars.

Starts off with that rich earthiness of Dominican tobacco. Leathery, sweet. Very nice. I always say I need to explore LFD but never do. Inch in, lots of pepper, a bit more coffee grounds. Waiting for the creamy texture and I'll love this cigar. So far pretty dry but not astringent. One touchup after 2nd ash drop. The cream is creeping in. Another ash drop another touchup. Wonder if there's a crack in the wrapper/ binder it's slow burning on the same side the whole way, on the seam of the band side. Doesnt seem to care, tastes fine, draws fine, burns fine just needs a lil catchup assistance. Cream never really came forward but it was there just enough to balance the pepper and earth. Little mineral twang in there in thr last third to keep it interesting. I often find myself bored with a cigar after an hour or so but this had enough variety over the 2 hour smoke to prevent that.

Thank you JTS for a wonderful journey through many cigars I probably wouldn't have smoked otherwise.

81709 - DE Undercrown maduro 10th
First few of these I thought they were better than the regular Undercrown, but now I'm not so convinced and probably won't buy anymore 10th anniversary.

Agreed. LFD stuff is top notch.

I thought the Air Bender was shallow and pedantic, but the 1994, Colorado oscuro and especially the double ligero maduro are top notch. The DL600 maduro is a top 5 regular smoke for me.

81715 Dumbarton Mi Querida tricky tacos 652

It's a nice cigar. But it's not for me. I need to be in a particular mood to enjoy a ligero laden cigar. While it's not a kick in the teeth, it's a sharpness in a cigar that would otherwise be rich and savory. Like hot peppers on a steak. I could enjoy that, but not right now.

I put it down at halfway. I was nervous lighting this one while on call cause I didn't want to have to pitch a $10 cigar if my pager went off. Pager stayed quiet, still ditched the cigar.

81716: LGC Serie R Black Mad
I smoke different blends and vitolas from LGC. My best experiences w/this brand are really very good. Across all the blends and vitolas I estimate that 10% to 15% have some type of construction issue. Today’s smoke had a very tight draw and a burn line that needed constant mending. About halfway in I had to break off a very large piece of hard charcoal-like char. The flavors just weren’t there though it didn’t have any off putting tastes. A few months in storage may have corrected the problem. I don’t smoke ROT but still, a cigar should be smokable at time of sale. Disappointed.
