RyJ Edicion Limitada(NC), we just got these in at work. Pretty good first 2/3, last third was a little lacking, but still good. Wouldn't pay full price for one, but with my discount might grab another one and save it for later.

Monte Platinum, another solid smoke, but I like the Whites better.

LFD Maduro DL Chisel, was not expecting the smooth earthiness to it. Based on prior experience with the DL line I was expecting a good bit of spice. Shows how much a wrapper can affect the flavors. Definitely will grab another of these.

Another Oliva V Belicoso last night. Still have the lancero resting, will probably give it a try this weekend.

I had an Oliva V last night... definitly going to get some more to keep around. really enjoyed it.

I had to smoke a Diesel UHC last night after all the talk about them yesterday.

Last night was a Macanudo 1968 Robusto. Was a nice cigar but less than impressive. I expected more.

If this thread was, "What cigar did you smoke Sunday IV?" then I would say a Man o' War Double Corona. Easy smoking

The Undercrown by Drew Estate. This is the supposed follow up to the Liga Privada 9. Long story short:

Drew Estate’s made a huge splash with their traditional Liga Privada #9. A favorite amongst the factory’s rollers, Drew Estate had to tell the rollers to stop smoking the blend because of the high demand of the cigar. So the working man had to adapt…And adapt they did. Created by the rollers of the Drew Estate factory, the Liga Privada Undercrown uses tobaccos similar to the Liga Privada #9 but that are more readily available.

From all the research and talking with my local tobacconist it's basically the same blend with a different wrapper. The high quality rare wrapper of the 9 is what makes the 9 what it is. With the wrapper substituted, after sampling I'd prefer to call the undercrown Liga Privada 9 "lite" vs. a "follow up." It's practically a carbon copy to the 9, only with a slight spice at the begining and the flavors aren't as pronounced.

To top it off, it's priced a little less than the 9, with the toro coming it at about $8 and change, vs. the 9 of the same size which runs $13. It's good, and worthy of having a few around

Nice. Thank you. Can't wait to try it.

I prefer the term "stalking".

BTW, I've still got an eye on you to Shane...

MOW Puro!! Love love love these cigars.

I had an Oliva serie V Torpedo late last night. Great as always :-)

Just lit a Cuba libre one. Initial smell and pre-light draw were wonderful. First couple puffs were bland and tasteless, but now that I am a 1/2 inch into it I'm really glad I snapped up a box of 20 for 36 bucks the other day on cigarsprintsale.com. really liking this thing.
