GA GatorThe Half Ashed Cigar Lounge - and sticks with protection.
Seaplane to the Dry Tortugas National Park 75 miles west of Key West. Snorkeled snd toured Fort Jefferson.

Jaywendland1981Cant wait for the 17s. Has the blend/wrapper been disclosed yet? I have enough broadleaf in my humidor and dont need anymore.
There will be whores, tits and sex.

GA GatorThey are the same blend every year, only the vitola changes. This year goes back to the 2014 size.

Jaywendland1981Thats a bit of a letdown. I really liked the 2013 which had a different wrapper. I know it was also an anniversary for Tatuaje but i heard rumors this year would be a similiar blend to the 13.

GA GatorThe 13 was just the brown label (seleccion de cazador) with a closed foot.
No doubt a great cigar and one of my all time favorites.

petrLa Flor Dominicana Reserva Especial tonight. Supposedly the Andelusion Bull with a different wrapper. Damn good smoke. Not quite as good as the Bull but still good.

furloughIn the backyard now with a Monte Cristo White.
I forget who told me that these were good morning cigars, but you were right!
Also GA Gator I am remiss in not telling you earlier how incredibly perfect that picture of the floatplane tied up to a beach is.
My dream has always been to get a good plane and just fly around the islands and tie up and start mixing rum drinks when I get to wherever I am going. Of course my dream has a big-ass Grumman Goose in it so we can all sleep wherever we tie up!
I am a slacker though and have not gotten my seaplane rating yet. I suck.

Jaywendland1981I've always went for the Padron maduros, hard to beat that cocoa and coffee flavor. Got this one in a sampler and what a nice change. Salty and sweet.

GA GatorThanks for this smoke Ronin it's very good. Smoking perfect. Definitely Full strength, definitely box worthy any idea of age?

Yes. That box is from 2009. I've got about a dozen left and find they only get better with age.
So very glad that you are enjoying it!
To add - I have a buddy who knows Pete (Tatuaje)pretty well and was told that this years 'swag box' is going to be the best ever. We'll see!

GA GatorI want the Tatuaje club shirt he wore at the ipcpr, it looks kind of like the Havana Club rum label.
I also want the summer 5 pack they are going to sell through the club.
The Petemas were awesome, problem is there website makes purchasing a real bitch. I took me 5 days to get two Petemas packs.

Jaywendland1981I hate all the trolling on the sns forum. No clear answer on when they will release the summer packs. Will we get an email?

TMatsAnother offering from Drew Estate--the Kentucky Fire Cured MUWAT. I was a bit put off by the camp fire smell the cigars imparted to my humidor, but they don't taste that way and it's really a pretty nice smoke. Give one a try.

Jaywendland1981I've had a few of those. They start off good but get a bit too smoky for me. I wouldnt keep them in your humidor with the rest of your smokes. Unless you really like that campfire taste.

furloughCool - in Memphis the local shop has these and I have been wonderig about them. I will try one tomorrow, but thanks for the tip of not putting them with other cigars.

newtoSig765Question from a neophyte -- I got a 5-pack of Nica Libre Toro's, and it looks like they got compressed into a rectangular shape. In the pics on CI's website they look round. I assume this is due to storage in a plastic bag rather than a box.
Will they return to the round shape over time, if I leave them in the bag? I'd hate to try smoking one and have it fall apart on me.

TMatsAlmost certain that Nica Libre is a box-pressed cigar.

I don't understand. Does that mean they are normally rectangular? Keep in mind, my 5 were in a plastic wrapper, not a cigar box.
CI's website says they are pressed, I assume that means box pressed as you suggested.
