Rare Monday smoke for me (it was a holiday and we closed early) - so I had a Punch Magnum.
I had one a few months back that tasted good but it burned/smoked like crap.
This one tasted great and the burn and draw was perfect.
Might get me some more.........
Smoked a Nub Connecticut that Greg sent me a while back....pretty good flavor from a Connie. Great draw (v-cutter) and razor sharp burn to boot. The only downside was it started to get extremely hot about 1.5" from the end....i slowed way down but that didnt help at all.
BBF from 2010, BPB 2009 EL after that. I liked that one better than the BBF. More full and subtle caramel taste to it. Nub Dub that I just finished.
Interesting take on the Bolis. Myself, I think the BBF is a superior cigar for one simple reason: it tastes like a Bolivar whereas the 2009 EL really doesn't hit the Bolivar profile. My opinion of course, and I enjoy both.
The BPB tastes more like an Oliva V which is one of my favorites. The BBF is just a different animal. Smooth and creamy. Whereas the BPB is stronger with a distinct wrapper taste that hits me right.
San Cristobal, MF Special Robusto (White), and Oliva V Maddy 09
heck of a night, Shaun!
Yeah those were some nice smokes...had to have something nice this week for Christmas and next for New Years...wish I wouldn't have given away all those good smokes on my pass and I would have some more choices :P

ive noticed that these do much better after at least a year on them. i have never had one that was good ROTT but i have had several that were good after a that rest period.
last night had an Anejo 48 with 3 years on it from pheebs. a fantastic stick. i got to smoke it while my father - in - law smoked his 2011 Anejo 48 at the same time. very similar flavors but the slight rough edges were smoothed out with my 08 stick
Obsidian Mini Corona with a spicy bloody mary, nice little stick so far
That's my new go to stick when it's cold out or I just don't have a lot of time for a smoke....which seems to be the case more often than not unfortunately. Very flavorful IMO.

First one I've had, thought it was very good, especially for a quick little smoke. Looking at the box prices, got one left from a sampler Tim B. put together for me.

Ten packs used to come up on the Sprint Sale site fairly often and can be had for a good price. I haven't seen them as much lately, then again I haven't been checking it as much lately.
