Would you like a Cigar?

My Father La Opulencia

My first time having this and it won't be the last. The first 1/3 was a very raisony with light cocoa. The 2nd 1/3 was similar with a very light pepper taking the lead. The last third got a little hot and bitter so I called it.

It was def an unexpected flavor profile. I wish it wasn't so windy and I could have enjoyed it more. With my intermediate experience, I would say top 5 for me

Another unique smoke by Oscar Valladares. The “2012” was a very pleasant surprise. A box pressed smoke with toasty, nutty smoke with a hint of fruit. Burned well with full of smoke, down to a teeny weenie nub. Great smoke after a day of yard work and football. Titan Up!

A good solid Montecristo I smoke yesterday after a successful spearfishing session.

Very nice!

This is a cigar I'd like to try myself, but they're a lot of money in the UK to take a punt sight unseen. How would you describe the flavour? I understand they're meant to be fuller bodied than most of the Montecristo range?

Thanks!

Another new smoke for Uncle Morty. A vendor gave me these, a La Flor Dominicana 1994 Mambo. A ver full smoke cigar, starts off with lots of earthy, peppery smoke. The middle third is very tasty with hints of coffee and spice and quite smooth. Still working on the final third as this is a 7 inch cigar and going on well into the 45 min mark. Excellent with a cup of Joe watching MNF on the porch on a 56 deg F night! Perfect!

Me too, I hope Trump eats him alive .

I’ve like Toranos for many years. The Carlos Torano Exodus 1959 is one of my favorites.

I like them as well. I bought a couple 5 packs in my last order.

Even if Trump wipes the floor with Biden, you know the Liberal media will declare Biden the winner. They never fail to elevate losers.
 
For sure. Let’s get ready to rumble!!!!!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
