Cigar /Pipe Smoking thread

So I like smoking different brands. Rocky Patel has been my favorite. But these last two Perdomo’s and learning so much about the company on YouTube, I might be converted to Perdomo moving forward

i grew up working the burley tobacco fields of upper East Tennessee. It’s no fun.

Yep,

It’d be nice if a cigar maker would come to this area to grow tobacco. Good rich ground and plenty of humidity.

When I was growing up, there were rows and row of tobacco wharehouses. They’re all gone now. Can’t find enough people to work the fields.

Nice smoke. Those are very close to the Cuban counterpart.

Very true. Everyone kinda helped each other in those days also., Family and neighbors.

I’ll have to take your word for it, I’ll probably never get my hands on a Cuban.

Fist time smoking this.

A lot of those fields have gone to cotton. A lot less manual labor needed.

How you like it. I remember it being a really enjoyable cigar.

Yep, tomatoes or corn and some soybeans.

Good so far. Kind of a leather , coffee, cocoa or dark chocolate with a good amount of black pepper on the front end.

This would be good with a White Russian

That’s a very nice start.

Smoking the last of my five The Griffins. Three out of five had a tight draw. I won’t be purchasing these again anytime soon.

Best way to describe this cigar is, a dry, nutty, chocolate raisin, with a nice sweet smelling smoke.

I don’t drink bourbon but a Early Times type bourbon would go really good with this.

Thats one of my favorite flavors that some good maduros provide - raisins. Goes great with chocolate and hazelnut

So they didn’t have the Macanado Maduro, so I went with this one instead. I wasn’t overly impressed with the first quarter/third, but it got better as it went, wound up light and smooth with a lot of smoke. I’ll sample it again.
