Boy that is a tough one as I've smoked only two Tatoos and I think I have one hidden away but if memory serves me correctly, the Tatoo was close to a Cubao meaning tart leather and earth flavorsand closer to the Full side of Med-Full.

The TAA Tatoo is less full with a smooth tart tangy earthiness over a brown label binder so earthiness, hint of cedar and pepper. The TAA is closer to the Medium side of a Med-full.

I would say these TAA cigars are starting to mellow now since ROTT so I'm probably going to smoke more until they are gone as age is starting to negatively effect them for myself but they are still very good and I have about six left.

Tonight it's a Padron 3000 Maduro and the pepper made me sneeze about 8 times so it's good!!!!

Had my first CAO Gold Maduro Robusto earlier.

'Twas very good and I may just need to order another CAO Gold sampler to figure out if I prefer the normal CAO Gold Robustos or their Maduro Gold Robustos....or both?? :-)

Side note: Because of a crappy cut I had some wrapper unravelling by the head of the cigar. So it gave me a perfect opportunity to break out this little guy that I had bought awhile back and try it for the first time.

Saved my cigar and worked like a charm. :-)

Thanks, Dave!:-) Yes, The Padron Series Is One Of The First "Good" Cigars I Smoked Many Years Ago,:-)

Enjoyed a Nica Rustica at a new (to me) B&M in Minneapolis today. Great lounge only unfortunate thing was the prices were brutal even for our area.

I also had the pleasure of meeting John (Black Coral) who had just flown into town for business and got to sit down for a smoke with him. Great guy and great cigars. Hope to burn another with you when you are in town again John. Safe driving up north!

Had my last CAO Gold Robusto from my sampler a few hours ago.

Was kinda boring to be honest.

I'd have to say that overall the best CAO Gold I've had so far that wasn't a maduro was the CAO Gold Corona.

La Aurora Platinum Camaroon.
Very smooth, really well constructed. Burns well, and has a complicated flavour throughout.

Love you having a cigar 2 feet from the sign that says not within 25 feet. :-)

That is classic!

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Not too bad, I half expected it to get muddled about halfway down as it didn't sit long in my box. Turned out to be tasty all the way.

Hah I can't help but be an irony rebel occasionally!! Puns, irony, and sarcasm are a weakness of mine but one I just don't want to fix.
