What will everyone be smoking this weekend...?

 

Not to gloat, but I am celebrating the birth of my daughter (Gianna who is actually 2 months old) this weekend with some friends and we put away some special sticks just for this.  I hope nobody thinks I smoke these things all the time (especially since I am new to the site)....

 

Saturday while doing some lawn cleanup work, and getting the house ready for a baptism party, I think I will go with the never fail, Ashton VSG Wizard.  The Wizard I will be smnoking has a good 4 years on it.  This should last just about the whole time I am on lawn duty.

 

We will start on Sunday with an Epernay Le Elegance by Illsuione and then move on the the FFOX BBMF Maduro.  Review of the FFOX BBMF Maduro to follow, for thsoe who are interested or who are as crazy as I am even to have one!

 

Anyone else celebrating anything this weekend?

If it's not 100 degrees out , with all this Lost City talk I may have to get to uncover my bomb shelter and pull one out. I'm sure a Padron 1926 #35 maduro will pair great with my morning coffee. I'll wing it from there.
I'll toast to that man, congrats on the baby girl. Mine's 6 and half. Lovin every minute. Puffin on a Gran Habano #3 as I type this. Torano Signature tomorrow night most likely. Man you gotta smoke those dog rockets doin the yard work! Save those Ashtons when you can kick back and sip a scotch or bourbon with it! More power to ya though. Its so hot down here in LA though, it would be sweat drenched in a few minutes =, so thats why thats my angle. (By LA i mean Lower ALabama ;) )And a hearty Southern Baptst AMEN to celebrating another day 6 foot above instead of 6 below!, Jimbob! Peace Love and stogies, Amigos.
May Be A Camac Ho Legend Ario Bi G Ber Tha.

So.... the BBMF Maduro.....

Anyone interested in trying this out, if you have them, dont expect an Opus X. A good description of the taste of this cigar is a mix between an AF Anejo and an Opus. At some points throughout the cigar I got fruity flavors, maybe some corriander and wild cherry. This could have been because of the drink pairing, Grahams Vintage Port - 1994. Only at one point, maybe 2 or 3 draws, did I get a peppery taste similar to the Opus X, at about the midway point. Sad to say, the cigar got awfully harsh in the last 1/4. I actually couldnt take it past a certain point and had to discard about 3/4 to 1/2 an inch. I would have to describe this to be a medium bodied cigar at best (definately not full bodied), which got a little stronger and more pronounced as the cigar progressed. While the cigar was different and not what I had expected, it was a very good overall cigar with absolutely PERFECT construction. At no pojnt throughout the cigar were there any draw or burn problems, even with the bulb and initial light with that shape vitola.

Hype or hit???? Definately hype. If you have them, smoke them... if you dont, I dont suggest running out to find them, especially for the price point.
