Raul Lanuza Maduro from Privada. Magnificent stick!

Raul Lanuza Maduro from Privada. Magnificent stick!

This is from the same guy who blended the Super Sea Monkeys. Having smoked a few of his blends, I see a playfulness in his blending approach. With this cigar, it starts out with a blast of sweet complexity. Then the first half is a constant juxtaposition of sweet and savory transitions. Kept me on my toes. Transitions calm in the second half and the profile compresses into a luxurious dark-sweet treat with shifting flavors: grape jelly, stone fruit, molasses, toffee, mocha. The texture is creamy and thickens throughout the smoke. Great cigar!

The New HVC La Decoración. Banger!

Smoked one this morning with only a week of rest. Yeah, it was a bit early. But even at this stage it was delicious. It has the nuance and composure of a Cuban but the flavor profile of a Nicaraguan. All delivered in a medium body smoke. Simply lovely!

I've been on a Ferio Tego kick lately!

I only got around trying Ferio Tego cigars just this year. I'm kind of kicking myself for not trying them earlier. But I'm remedying the situation.

I'm smoking the Timeless Prestige as I write this. Moderately spicy character, but it has a deep flavor profile with floral notes, cedar, cocoa powder, black coffee, and dried fruit.

As for the others, all are magnificent!

Megilla Miami. Such a solid stick!

Yup, a Cigar Page/Raymond Pages stick. This one is produced at El Titan de Bronze in Miami and it shows, from the clean lines, construction, draw, and great flavor. Smoke is super smooth and the typical Connie spiciness is really subdued. Highly recommend!

Mail call! Definition One13

Brand new from PCA. I'll be trying out the Pi5vot (pivot) once I finish these. So excited!

This is a collaboration between Luis Barragan and Raul Lanuza. Lanuza blended the LCA Super Sea Monkeys. This has his signature all over it. Visit dunamiscigars.com for more info. And no, I'm not affiliated. A friend introduced me to the brand.

This is a surprisingly good stick from Raymond Pages. I love the play on My Father and LADC!
