  • Enjoyed any nice cigars lately?

    From Zero Reader@10:101/5 to Smooth on Sunday, April 10, 2022 10:05:31
    Had any good sticks lately?

    A couple of my go-tos recently have been:

    - La Careme from Crowned Heads: Sweet, dark chocolate souffle vibe.

    - Illusione Epernay: Fairly mild but with a lot of flavor. No ligero, so it doesn't deliver a huge buzz.

    - Aging Room Quattro: Just a fantastic cigar.

    - HVC "Hot Cake": Another sweet/spicy one that I can't get enough of.

    Aging Room produces some of the best daily/weekly smokes IMHO. I don't smoke as much as I used to because of Covid. I've started smoking a bunch of my aged
    La Requiza cigars from Tatuaje. They've gotten sweeter in the humidor during the pandemic downtime. I've got two wine fridges converted to fridge-a-doors. :P

    ... There is an exception to every rule, except this one.

    The only Tatuajes I've consistently enjoyed have been from the "Skinny Monsters" series. Maybe I keep buying the wrong ones. I'll add La Requiza to my
    list of smokes to be on the lookout for.

    La Requizas are amazing. I always run out of these when I get them. That's why
    I tend to let them age a bit before smoking as they actually get better with time. They taste real good from the store if the store you go to humidifies them well before selling. Many of those boxes sit in warehouses or in a delivery truck for long periods with proper humidification.

    I will sometimes smoke them at a lounge that has a box humidifying for weeks or
    months. :D

    OK I definitely need to seek this one out. The guy that stocks my local shop is
    a Tatuaje fiend, so more than likely, they will have these!

    Thanks for the suggestion!
