Another viewpoint

One of my long time smoking chums sent me this list of outstanding cigars to indulge in. Take a look at their picks and let me know what you think.

7-20-4 Lancero , top flight cigar

Interesting shape as it's not something I usually indulge in. The construction was solid, no relights and flavor was smooth and delightful .  Medium strength with hints of cocoa and vanilla. Taste profile was a winner. Bought the cigar from serious cigars. Not easy to find but worth the hunt. California cigars do not carry many 7-20-4 products. This smoke makes my top ten list of 2013. My only regret is the price point should be $8 not 10. Have two more in my humi which I will let age a bit more.

Very good burn , creamy with a vanilla and almond taste. All Conn. Oval cigars were sold out very quickly.  It is a buy for my humidor and will be a top choice when I desire a very smooth flavorful smoke.

Tell me more

Honestly don't know much about this cigar but it was of high quality

Falto cigar: Burned well, flavorful and smoked down to the nub.

Aging room cigars

Was not my cup of tea despite it's high rating from CA, burned  poorly and harsh taste 

Crush and Roll down the road

Just a quickie. Looking forward to "bond" with 300 or so cigar people this coming Sat.  Long trip for a day but like the vibe and cigars too. Full report after the event
