Help me select my morning smoke... and now my afternoon smoke

robbyras

I have today off... it's raining and the coffee is brewing... Gonna sit on the patio under the overhang... read my book and enjoy a smoke... gonna choose from:
Montecristo White
RnJ Reserve Real
Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagne

I have never had any of these sticks...

id go with the RyJ reserva real.

i find that this smoke is very smooth with a hint of cram and musk. its may favorite of those you listed (though all three arent bad)

zeebra

Monte white or the RyJ. Like both!!

bigharpoon

Reserva Real all the way, those are perfect for the morning.

RyJ fo shizzle in yo drizzle.....

well... i got impatient and went with the Montecristo White... came as part of the COTM for November... it wasn't bad... not the best Connie I've had... I liked the MC Platinum MUCH better...

really mild, so to compare it to the Platinum isn't really fair, but given the price I'd go with the Plat... but I think they are both overpriced...

so taking $ out of the equation, it was a pleasant smoke... it lasted a little over an hour (smoked the toro) before I got too cold and damp... probably had about 30 min left, but I think I got all the enjoyment out of it that I could have today... should have gone with something smaller given the weather...

now what to have as my afternoon smoke... we'll see how the weather goes...

either
Hemingway short story
Oliva O maduro perfecto

Air Bender!!!!

thats a no brainer

What they said. The Air Bender is actually my favorite afternoon smoke.

I'd go with the O and save the Air Bender for tonight. That would be a solid three stick day for sure.

robbyras

yeah, i've been resting them for a month or so... haven't had the Air Bender yet, so I think that;s the way I am gonna go...

I may not be able to get a night smoke in... so I'll go Air Bender... If I can get a night smoke I may go Camacho Triple Maduro or 6x54 Diesel Unlimited

lilwing88

How'd the Air Bender go?

docbp87

Yeah let us know how the Air Bender treated you. I absolutely love that blend, and of the sizes I have tried, the Matatan has been the best. I have a chisel in my humi that I need to burn, and I want to get my hands on the lancero size as well, but at the moment, for my money, the Air Bender kicks major azz in the Matatan vitola.

Didn't get a chance to get after it... Had a client call with a last minute project, so I was SWAMPED all afternoon...

she is primed for saturday afternoon smoking though... I will report back then...
