Cigars Cigars Cigars

[Sev]

yeah, too bad most of us not free....

i just done a monte no.5.... 45mins of smoking, not so high, very good, i like the mild taste...

bought ramon allones small, RYJ Petit Coronas and Punch Punch today...

[Throttle]

sorry just got back, fellas.

 

luckily i had the pleasure of smoking a 2001 RYJ Exhibicion No. 4.

very deep flavored and mucky aroma with just 4 yrs of aging.

 

anyway, i'll let my palette rest tonite before going for a Partagas Lusitania tomorrow.

 

enjoy:bouncefire:

[Sev]

i saw a Hoyo DM robusto size cigar, $23, the leaf got spot on it, forgot the name... looks good, may try that next time...

btw, didn't get the monte No 4, they have aged monte no 4 for sales only, cost $22, so didnt get it, i want to try the normal fresh one first...

[Throttle]

huh HDM robusto size???

 

other than the epicure No. 2 which is priced easily at $28, i have never ever seen another HDM robusto beside the edicion limitada which cannot be $23....

 

Sev, i dont think it's a robusto, if it is, then it cant be a Cuban HDM....

[Sev]

i'm pretty sure it is a robusto size cigar, cos it placed just next to epicure no 2, i can compare their size, but this cigar is shorter than epicure no 2... the color is very light with spots on it... may be it is not a HDM...

if someone pass by Oak taka can go in take a look and tell us the name...

:smile:

[Throttle]

yo Sev,

 

so it is not the same size as a robusto then.

 

becos same size means ring guage and length are the same.

 

if it is shorter than it is not classified as a robusto anymore

 

it is probably the petit robusto by Hoyo.

I have one in my brief case right now.

 

The price is indeed $23....I can let you have for $20...haha

[Sev]

ha, thanks for the info, all the while i thought the ring size determine the cigar type... now then i know that robusto size cigar has fixed ring size and length.... :cheeky:

 

ok, i get from you when we meet up for our next cigar session, shorter than episure no 2, may be not so 'high' after smoking it..... :thumb:

[Throttle]

YEs, "vitolas" are defined by ring gauge and length and sometimes formats or shapes.

 

There are so many, I cannot remeber either

 

but some of the popular ones

 

Piramides

Robusto

Hermoso No 2

Lonsdale

Campana

Corona

Corona Grande / Gorda

Petit Corona

Double corona Prominentes

Franciscano

Panetela

Toro

Robusto Extra

Canonoza

Chicos

[Intruder]

Just now done up my Boliva Belicosos, at the middle becomes thicker and the end choky....but it's a fine smoke. Great stuffs!

[Throttle]

had a hermosos no. 2 RYJ and finished off the nite with a 1998 sancho panza petite corona.

 

very satisfied man:smile:

[numbergames]

oh ya i just remembered the last time that i went to the

Oaks outlet at Taka, i bought a Don Sebastian cigar.....

so long wanted to tell you all kept forgetting....

[Throttle]

Don Sebastian is not Cuban, so the smoke will likely be lighter and milder , floral and tealike.

 

have you smoked it? any comments

[Nightstalker]

whoa.... that is damn long. my longest so far was juz slightly over an inch. haha.... to have such perfect ash has to do a lot wif the way u light and smoke it rite?

[Sev]

wah, you have to hold it upright all the time or the ash wont break even you hold it horizontally? longest i did was about an inch only...

[Throttle]

Can hold horizontally but will break after a while.

For normal smoking Robusto ash can hold about 1 to 2 inches...

[numbergames]

the length of the ash makes me think that

it's a magic trick...lol....
