Caldwell Blind Man's Bluff Maduro was my cigar last night. B-
They need to rest more. Thing is, I know I have 3 or 4 that are older, but I don't know where they are. I have to remember to keep my eyes open for them while I'm digging in the boxes for whatever. I need a spreadsheet system to tell me where stuff is, but doing that kind of inventory is a b!tch at this stage.

Oliva saison D. Occupied my hands while driving. Will finish the rest I have but not as good as the flor de Oliva bundles which I’d give a C

Lfd chapter one rating B
Little bit muted on the flavors. Large ring guage. Good cigar but it’s fine if I never had to smoke another one. Not something I’ll hunt down

However, mebbe it’s just a matter of taking the big plunge and amalgamating your existing inventory so there’s some rhyme and reason? Start off small, a humidor or cooler at a time. I’mma sure your OCD will thank you one day. 😁

Little disappointed on this one. Haven’t had one in a while and probably won’t again until they sleep for a while
Meh

Italia
On the flip side pretty surprised at the Italian nothing earth shattering but a decent stick. Maybe a little sleep???

La Aurora Preferidos Broadleaf - it was good. I'm on the edge between A- and B+. Given that the construction, burn, smoke production, all that were very good, the flavors good, I'm going with A-.

But no, Im getting nothing out of this, other than some pretty interesting recommendations. Who started this dumb thread, anyway?

I was just here looking for the deals thread. But yes, this cigar forum sucks, because ALL cigar forums suck. Gatekeeping. Because you know, we might run out of smokes.

Tried a Gurkha and it was horrendous last week.
So i had some more from a 5pack I had bought and thought a second try was in order
So there was a guy named Freud that said if you try the same thing over and over expecting different results, your a nutcase.
Paint me crazy
