Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

[cvm4]

I smoked a RASCC while mowing the grass this afternoon. Smoked it down to about .75" and that's rare for me. Luckily the sun was behind the clouds so it wasn't as hot! It did have a metallic taste which I found very weird.

You have to let me know how you like those Todd! The one I had was absolutely AMAZING!

Wonderful smokes Jason. That was the second I have had and they are very very good. I can see why Ken likes 'em so much. Thanks a bunch Ken! :thumbsup:

As I remember it there was a definate "Cohiba-ish" taste with maybe some caramel sweetness to it. Can't remember it well enough to describe it and do it justice, but I remember it being awesome. Glad you enjoyed it. That deck's getting a work out, eh?! :thumbsup:

 

[Wasch_24]

Exactly! A sweet Cohiba-ness! :drool:

Alright, alright...don't make too much fun of me but I just smoked my second RASCC ever on the way in today and it was friggin' good...I think I like 'em. :blushlove

It was an OCT '04 variety and it was so sweet and rich. I think I'm gonna get some more someday. :thumbsup:

I had an 04 Punch RS #11......Damn these are getting close to being my favorite habano! I've gots to get more! :yes:

 

[Wasch_24]

I had a '98 ERdM PC basically fresh OTT, got 'em Monday. It was actually really good and burned darnn good for being unrecovered from it's trip.

 

[Black Dog]

Do you smoke anything younger than '98? I'm in cigar envy!

 

[Wasch_24]

Sure. I have some '01s, '02s' and '03s. Any younger and they have too much kick for me unless golfing with a breeze. I don't have the resources to age my own so I find 'em aged already. :thumbsup:

 

[smokem94]

Had an Upman Mag 46....NICE!

Bolivar Royal Corona. Smoking nice, as I type.

I'm currently in the middle of a February '05 Party SP 2 from the FIM factory.

Beautiful cigar...pretty good smoke too. This February release tasted better in May.

 

[Jwrussell]

Yeah...right up until...







wait for it....



Had two PLPCs, kind of. First one was like a straw and tasted dry. The second one was better taste wise but was plugged. Too bad...I'll have to reserve judgement until I can get my hands on a few more.

 

[Wasch_24]

wait for it....yeah

Until one of my cats decided to drag it's shitty ass all over the upstairs!!! :argh: :argh: :argh:

Oh well, clean up is over...lemme go back outside and see how the second half is after sitting for a while. :frown:

My "Today's Smoke" doesn't fit in the Habano catagory but you can read about it here

 

[Wasch_24]

Damn! The wrapper absorbed the humidity in the air and is saturated...oh well.

 

[Black Dog]

That sucks Todd.

 

[Wasch_24]

Yep...that's what I get for smoking a freshie I guess. :hysterica
