Thank you, bro. I'm reeling from this one...OhMyGod

I've only had a few of them, but those that I've tried have all been fantastic. I imagine the same will hold true of the rest of the selection. Clearly Ron is a man of good taste. Good on ya.

You know, the 8-5-8 is the only one I have tried, come to think of it, but only once and it's been awhile. I smoked the Gloria de Leon right away and really enjoyed it. You mentioned "crisp" in the MB3 thread, a good description and one that works for this cigar as well. Nice flavor but light enough to be perfect with a cup of coffee. Thanks again, I've been having fun with these sticks.

I smoked the Cojonu last night after the MB3 and really enjoyed THAT one as well! Great medium body, lots of flavor and a nice, if not a little short, finish. It was the perfect way to end my evening.

...and IT'S on deck for tonight while I'm grillin' venison kabobs! Looks like a gooooood crackah.

Right now enjoying the heck out of the start of a 5 Vegas Cask Strength (thanks again Dave!) with a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Perfect match for this steamy 90 degree summer afternoon.
