The Diesel Corrosion has turned out to be a really great smoke, despite the gimmicky name. Less pleasant suprises were the La Estrella Cubana (runs, bleeds) and the Fidalgo, which left black residue on my lips. I also discovered my all around favorite everyday smoke, the La Rosa Especial through cigarbid.

(+) Flor de Florez Cabinet Sir Winstons, La Rosa Especial, HdM oscuro. (-) Tamboril Sumatra (red label).

(+) Black Diamonds and Joya del Jefes. With some aging combined with drying out some these aren't bad smokes for the money.

The Cupidos and 5 Vegas... now my choice for everyday smokes!!!

(+)5 Vegas for sure! VCent 500
(-)Any Sinatra or Lone Wolf maybe even Don Juan Platinum

Leon Jimines - anything they make(+++) Lone Wolf(-) Nasty smokes. I think I found out what happened to all of the hula skirts in the mainland!

Okay I'm a sucker... bought a five pack of the Sinatras and stuck them in the dor... now afraid to try them... don't have any desire for a dog rocket!!

(+) Nestor robusto, the one with the 1-800 emergency number (not as bad as it smelled (-) Legion churchills (gee, why can't i stop thinking about those?)

Best positive surprises were Credo, 5 Vegas and Diesel Crude. Worst surprise was Arturo Fuente 8 5 8 Flor Finas. They combined a mild body with a grassy herbal flavour.

Last time I had a mild body with a grassy herbal flavor was in'79...

But I may make an exception if it's Hansen
