Sundays are always my football days. So yesterday I decided to try some of the singles that I had obtained but had yet to try while I watch the games.
I heard so much good about the Don Pepin Blue Label from you guys here. So I lit one up. I liked it but did not think it was great. To me it lacked flavor. I liked the JJ series more that I had about two months ago and I have a Black label I have yet to try. But I remember the JJ too just did not give me much flavor. The Blue however did have a smooth, even burn.
About two hours later I lit up a CAO Italia. Ironically, I thought it tasted a lot like the Pepin Blue label but with more outburst of flavor. But the best part was that this cigar gave me a TON of good smoke. And unlike the Blue, this cigar just seemed to get better the more I got into it. It was firm and burned very well yet needed a couple of touch ups.
Just my thoughts. I still like the Blue but will not go out of my way to obtain them.
Then today I had my 3rd San Cristobal. In my Friday Night Lights thread I tried the Monumento and the Fabuloso. Today I enjoyed two Cokes and a San Cristobal Guajiro. All I could think was WOW! I want to buy a box of the San Cristobal's but have yet to decide what size to get. Hence, I ordered another sampler of 6 as I just cannot get enough of this line.
Tonight for the game I am going to try the SC Supremo with my Mic Amberboch. Thanks for checking this post out!
