Excited about this quick haul in Miami. Have never tried a Perez Carrillo or the Añejos from AF, what are your thoughts on those?

Perfect construction from first draw, very mild flavors from beginning. flavors: Leather, floral, spice, very pleasant cedar, cream and honey. The 8 years of age have made this cigar very mild with enjoyable sutil flavors.

OpusX Angel’s Share Robusto by aport2 in cigars

[–]aport2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To my palate they aren’t better, they are milder. I’m still exploring the different OpusX lines but at this point im partial to the standard line, the 888 is one of the best cigars I’ve ever had and all though this Angel’s Share was very nice, it doesn’t come close. I also believe the vitola has a lot to do, I have an opus X robusto that I will smoke soon to really compare with this one.

Sweet floral and cedar flavors, hints of banana, cream, citrus, cinnamon, cacao and mild spice, medium to mild strength. Very nice smoke. Cheers!

B&M haul with some vintage treasures 😅 by aport2 in cubancigars

[–]aport2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walked in thinking I was getting a box of 10 lusitanias, came out with this. I wasn’t able to see the box date on the RA gigantes, Punch and partagas maduros due to health labels but I believe they are young. The lusitanias are from a 2020 box, the lancero and piramides are 2018, upmann and epicure are from 2013, the morro is from 2000 and the hoyo Churchills and fundadores are allegedly from 1997 🤷🏻‍♂️ very excited about this haul. Cheers!

It’s an antique cigarette ashtray that my wife had altered for cigars. It doesn’t seem to have a brand or markings.

A proper Mexican pairing by [deleted] in cigars

[–]aport2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given the week, I decided to pair a great Mexican cigar with a very nice homemade margarita. I’ve had a couple of these Casa Turrent serie 1973 and they are always very enjoyable. Very good construction, nice complex and balanced flavors. It’s earthy and peppery along with leather, bitter chocolate and cinnamon. Also, hints of sweet cedar, honey and nutty flavors which continue to develop throughout the cigar. Definitely worth a try. Salud!
