This is AWESOME!!! Thank you, brother - it's good to know that I'm not the only one who gets a kick out of dog rocket reviews, but more importantly, it's great to see such a boost for the effort here.
Know, what? I think I have a Duque. I've needed an excuse to smoke a dog rocket lately.
Acids, Thrills gum & now a Duque? Geeze man youre a trooper!
Only one of the most vile & nasty sticks ever. Pronounced Do-kay but should be pronounced Do-kee
You'll find out in about an hour, when I smoke this beast.
I was so going to bomb you with the nastiest bunch of dog rockets you ever saw, until I saw the part about the matching donation. I figure your generosity exempts you from such a "gift."
Now that your cold is gone? That's what these smokes are for. Having a cold or banging on deaths door makes them better. At least I think
Yeah, the things I do for this place. With as much damage as the guys here have done to me, I feel my expense for charity and enjoyment is worth it.
ok now youre just downright being a glutton for punishment lol
Guys that really was not a hint to send me rockets! Im not trying to use reverse psychology here LOL. Been smoking over 6 years & finally got my stash almost clean of rockets....almost...
I thought the Las Cabrillas actually was OK for a milder smoke. However, that cruzeros looks like a rocket.Nice review on the Duque Eric! Sounds like theyre still as tasty as ever!

i found these in the bottom of the cooler a while ago. if yall think these would be classified as rockets, then i will burn them when i can & post reviews....
Las Cabrillas churchill
Santa Rosa corona
Pliedes Overuns Cruzeros long skinny cigar? (7.5" x 42)
The reviews I read for the Las Cabrillas sounded like it was an ok smoke, so maybe it cant be classified as a dog rocket.
Hogs head? Must have been from Arkansas. Wooo pig souie! Or pig shit as this case must be.
Well shit... if my co-sponsoring brother is smoking dog rockets too, I guess I'm on the hook to do the same...I havent done a review in several years, so I really hope Im able to pinpoint the flavors in this stick, and convey them accurately so that the reader feels as if they are here smoking it right alongside me. But not too close.
Ok todays smoke is the wonderful Pleiades Overruns - Cruzeros in about a 7.5" x 42 size. I cant find much about it online, they were supposed to have been aging for 11 years back when they were being sold in 2010 or 2011, so its probably almost old enough to get its drivers license now.
Prelight it smells like old hay & tobacco. Light it up without toasting, in between my puffs a thick black smoke comes off the foot of it, kind of like the smokestack on the 18 wheelers back in the 70's.
Im kind of cheating here, because im mowing the lawn while im smoking this...
1/3 stats out with a little bitterness (probably from lighting it), and a mix of hay & tobacco (sounds familiar)
2/3 continues and transitions in flavors of hay and tobacco, and a bonus of kind of nutty taste
The red object in the background is the worlds largest red paperclip, which if youre not familiar with it, has an amazing story behind it.
down to 3/3 now, and as you probably guessed, more hay and tobacco, and occasionally the nutty taste
I smoked about 15 more minutes, until it reached the band. The flavor stayed the same but seemed to be putting out a good bit of nicotine. It is not enjoyable at this point, so I lay it down.
This was not a terrible stick, nor was it an overly good one.Very one dimensional. It stayed burning the whole time I was mowing & weedwhacking, and kept a very nice burn line the whole time until I put it down.
Youre a brave man to admit that Jamie!
