Those Ashton and Tats look real good to me. Haven't had a Fuente Short Story yet, I've only tried 1 Fuente so far a Cameroon that was pretty tasty. Haven't been smoking that long.

Maybe I've been out in this beautiful Northern Michigan weather too ling today, I might just do it. I'll kick myself later though, since I already spent my cigar cash for the month. Just saw the Ashtons go down below $20, think my finger was shaking wildly over the buy button!

.....Had the TRINIDAD 100th ANN. Not bad at all. Not a 2nd buy for me at least though. Holding off on the ASHTON CABINET for under $23.00 and the CHAMPAGNE for $35.00 is becoming harder and harder. Something has to give.

The AVE MARIA, TORANO's, PADILLA's, and TATUAJE HAVANA's are what is KILLING ME THE MOST!!!!

.....Anyone smoke the TORANO NOVENTA line yet. Good? SoSo?, or don't bother?

I just saw the LaDC Mi Amore, they look good enough to eat from the page of my Cigar Book I got the other day. Didn't realize they were so reasonably priced and had a 94 rating by CA. Thanks, I'll put those on my my to get list as soon as I have some more $$.

Tag, I tried an Ave Maria last month in a sampler pack, it was ok I didn't quite see what all the fuss was about though. The Tatuaje Miami I've had before and they were delicious! Haven't had one in over 2 yrs though. I used to live in Indiana and had a great tobacco shop just 10 min away. Nothing close where I live in N. Michigan though.

Rah™ I went through most of a five pack and gifted two. Didn't care for them at all. Bitter/metallic charcoal taste. They may have been too green though to be fair.

Wow, that sounds like the 2 Padilla Obsidians I had about a week or so ago. Both were bad, tasted off and tunneled through the entire cigar.

One of the very few CT's I never liked. The Padilla Hybrids suck as well.Same thing one of the few Padillas I don't like.

thanks Jamie

.....As for the PADILLA OBSIDIAN 6x52 Torpedo. You are right. Out of the wrapper the are very inconsistent. HOWEVER, if you let them age naked with other sticks for at least 4 months, they become much more refined, and a VERY SMOOTH and great flavored smoke. Have had two over the past month I got back in MAY and they were GREAT! Try it, you will see what I mean. and

.....AVE MARIA is the best smoke I have had, aside from PADRON, this year. Not sure what you look for, or expect from a cigar, but AVE MARIA is very close to a LA GLORIA CUBANA, with less spice, BUT with a WHOLE EXTRA LEVEL OF FLAVOR. Provides a magnificent smoking session every time.

Thanks for the info on the Obsidians, they sent me 2 more. This time I'll take them out of the wrapper and set for awhile in my humidor, see what that does for them. As for the Ave Maria's,I've only tried the one, I'll have to get a 5 pack and give them another try.

I lived in Portage, IN. for almost 3 yrs. Not a bad place, had a great smoke shop real close too. Only 45 min. away from Chicago also.

I grew up and lived here until I went into the Army. After I got out, I lived in Phoenix for 14 yrs, married and had a son there. After I got divorced, I went to Postage, my dad and brother lived there. I missed being back home since most of my family is here, love the hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, going to the cottage on weekends. Great place if you love nature, but not a lot around here for shopping and stuff.

I'll put it to you this way, the largest store we have is Walmart. The only electronics store we have is Staples, since Radio Shack closed up shop. It's turning into a ghost town here!
