oggie505#2 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I went to London last night and tried a new stick. i am a fan of the platnium zino davidoffs, so I decided to try a new one they got in.It was a Zino Classic Premium Selection No.6, I would have to say it was a nice smoke, had a good leather flavor to it. I complimented the cigar with some goos 18yr old Macallan. I will def get this stick again, but not here in london since it was the same price as my cubans I smoke, but when I come back tot he states, I will have to pick a few of these up.

Uncle G~Dogg Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 My favorite has been the Ashton Corona... Nice pepper taste on the wrapper does it for me... Arturo Fuente Hemingway Signature rocks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonDubya Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I'm a big Acid Wafe fan for quick smokes or when you go somewhere and don't want people complaining [as much] about the cigar smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the Acid Wafes. They're small and they offer a quick smoke. I also get a lot of comments about it, since it's a flat cigar. I'd like to try the Fuente Forbidden X cigar, but those are way to expensive for me. I'll just stick with my Montecristos and Acids for the time being.

oggie505#2 Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) Just smoked a good stick the other day, my wife had to goto london to get some stuff at eh embassy for her upcoming trip, so she was nice and stopped by davidoff's and picked me up a new stickHOYO DE MONTERREY HABANAEdicion Limitada2007I wa shesitant at first, the Hoyo habana's are not my fav, but I do like the non-cuban ones you buy in the states. But I will admit this is a good stick, a nice medium body cigar, and had hits on oak and spice in it. Might not be those flavors, but that is what I tastedIt went well with my Glenfidich 12 Yr old Toasted Oak reserve, Limited Edition, finished about 1/2 the bottle while smoking.[attachment=515:DSC01346.JPG] Edited August 2, 2007 by oggie505#2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkel! Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) I had a great cigar about 7 or 8 years ago on a camping trip. I couldn't remember the name of it until I talked to my friend that brought them. It was a Partagas Limited Reserve. It was one of the best cigars I ever had. Edited August 2, 2007 by Dunkel!

oggie505#2 Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) ha ha ha, that is actually my fav habana. I will admit i am not a fan of cohiba produced in the Dominican Republic I feel they are overrated. They are actually not even affiliated with the cuban brand.but the ones u see in the pick are the best, unfortuntely they cost 32 pounds, which is like 64 bucks a stick, so i limit to 2 a humidor at a time Edited August 2, 2007 by oggie505#2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really excited for the Boli Gold Medals to show up next week.Those HdM Regalos ELs are brand new! Like just came off the island a month ago.

oggie505#2 Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 If you want a great cigar, and it ranks in my second fav cigar ever is the Zino Platinum Crown Series Cigars, the Chubby Especial, they have a hefty price tag but they are awesome cigar, not many shops have them in the states, but if you find one spend the money and get a stick. they have a guarantee too if it does not burn proper you can exchange it for another cigar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For $1 they would send you your choice of a premium cuban or non-cuban cigar. I got a Zino Platinum. Never had one before because of the price tag, but I must say they are one of the few sticks that are almost worth their price tag. TYLER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would pick one up if you can find it they are very tasty. I'm not a fan at all of the Lot 23s, I think they're much too mild. The maduros on the other hand are a completely different story. Love love love them! Definitely worth picking some up! TYLER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
