Cigars what you smoking.

I had this rather disappointing perfecto this morning, I will have to do some digging to see where I got them but a few months resting hasn’t improved them

I had this CAO Black after dinner, it was ok

 

[JimBear]

I had this one tonight, it wasn’t as good as I remembered or thought they were.

I have no clue where I got these, I was thinking Cbid but I have no record of it. Maybe I will try another one in a few months & they will improve

My thoughts exactly about Macanudos also, I haven’t tried them all but wasn’t overly impressed with the 5-6 I tried.

 

[KS Plainsman]

I've only had one Macanudo and it was pretty bland. This seems to be the consensus with everyone on the 2 cigar threads it seems.

 

[jakethesnake]

There was a black label macanudo. Best of them that I’ve smoked. I’ve got some random others. Green label. Bout all of them. Similar. Definitely a beginner smoke

I had this one this afternoon, it had a funky burn but had good flavor.

This green sucker here tonight. Only candela I’ve ever liked.

That a lancero/panatella?

That a lancero/panatella?

Yes “illusione holy lance”. It’s 40 ring which is “technically” a little thick for a lancero. I like the 40 a bit better than some of the slimmer ones.

 

[KS Plainsman]

Never had a lancero, but it seems like it would be right up my alley.

If you like Oliva v they make a good one
My father and tatuaje make my favorites


Foundation I believe makes the wise man maduro it’s very good.

I am rapidly becoming a fan of them but apparently so are a lot of others. They are usually sold out by the time I get to them.

I gots a few, I didn’t want to dig out the Olivas or Cains for the photo op.

I find the smaller ring gauges draw better for me. It's one of the things that I like about lonsdales. Lanceros being a bit smaller yet, would be better still, I reckon.

Lanceros are notorious for being hard to roll. I’ve had more issues with those than most. I still like em.

Just curious. Do you have a lead on where to find those diesel lanceros? I smoked one on a random fishing trip. I expected it to be mediocre. Maybe it was but I liked it. I briefly looked for some but struck out.

I got them from Cbid, a 5pack for $15

Uneven burn, or something else?
