Stick a Stick in .. Round 2

[Pantomimehorse]

Ok we did this before and it worked very well, a few of us arent able to do Stevies Box swap so this is a bit more small scale here are the rules from last time:

we each select a stick from our humidor, any stick lets not piss about with values etc we are all gents and I trust none of you will stick a hamlet in the mix... then I will randomly assign you a forum member you send the stick to... could be fun and a way to try something new?

if your in reply to this thread,

SO Far the following are signed up in the swap :

Pantohorse
Mr O
BigBarneyHotdog
HabanoSy
Deano

Cheers mate!

[HabanoSy]

Your welcome...

Enjoy your sticks mate... :41:

Cheers, HabanoSy

[skyhigh]

As a relative noob here i was not just sticked but veritably bombed by the star that is JPMOORE..:hail:
All the sticks he sent me are new to me and will give me a chance to try something different and to form my judgements against different brands.
so can we have a big up for JP :first::congrats::cheer2:

as for the sticks if i'm correct they would be a HdM , punch and and SLR churchills, a HdM black knight 2 and a RP vintage 1990 sixty

as a noob i could be wrong and i'm willing to be publicly flogged on this here forum if this proves so.http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2581/3797900119_77ae0d074c.jpg

[jpmoore]

No worries Skyhigh i hope you enjoy then, let me know what you think. Also many thanks for the selection of Flor de Cano's and Monte no 4.

[Giulio]

Just curious.... is there anybody who just sent one stick in the stick a stick in ..Round 2 :p

[Simon-JG-hr]

Do you ever get that sneaking suspicion that you're a bit of tight arse... :redface:

[Giulio]

Not me I made sure I sent 5 to be on the safe side :P

[bigbarneyhotdog]

stick a stick in is just that, round 2 should be stick some sticks in :rock:

[Pantomimehorse]

really happy this has worked out again, I just got a fantastic couple of smokes from KDot today cheers mate

[skyhigh]

well i just been and had a lovely fish and chips by the seaside and afterwards had the punch churchill for desert:smoke:

started off with a slight spice and nutmeg flavour before settling down for a nice relaxing smoke whilst watching the kids learn to canoe in the bay. Was a nice mild evening so the roof was down on the old mx5 and finished the cigar off whilst driving home, to which the cedar spicy kicked in during the latter half and well and truly cleared my sinuses. Had quite a cigar buzz for a long while after and i'm now well and truly chilled out. cheers JP.

Totally "thank you very much up'd" from a humble Midlander Giulio:humble:.

The sticks were sent in a box for protection and it felt like my birthday whilst opening the wrapper:cheer2:

Aren't I lucky? As posting, I'm smoking the wee Carlos Torano, but not sure which it is (sorry) and I am also going to have to do my homework on the rudely proportioned Placeres Reserva (I'm not really up on NCs) Thanks again Giulio:smoke:.

[Simon-JG-hr]

I received a lovely little package off celsis this morning.

Despite having agreed upon one cigar (kind of my fault as I'd already posted my side of the deal...) I received a nice little package of two. A beautiful looking Vegas Robaina Famosos, and a little extra. :thumb:

[HabanoSy]

Returned home from work to find a nice parcel waiting for me from my stick-a-stick in buddy, Gary - cheers mate...

http://www.ukcigarforums.com/picture.php?albumid=73&pictureid=913

Some very nice sticks indeed, going to fire up the Petit Edmundo after my dinner tonight as I haven't had one of these in ages...!!!

Cheers, HabanoSy

No problem Simon. I'd be interested to know what you think of the Don Gabriel? I bought a box of them and I can't quite make up my mind. I'm using them as my 'drive home from work' cigar.

The one in the glass tube is a "makers mark" dominican, seasoned with bourbon. The presentation is good, double banded cigar and sealed with wax.

[HabanoSy]

Bloody nice sticks those Larry...

Wait till you try it, very refined smoke the D'oro No.1, im sure your gonna enjoy it...!?!

Cheers, HabanoSy

[Big_T_UK]

Assume I am too late to join in? I appeared to have joined this forum at EXACTLY the wrong time.

[Lascaux]

holy crapola,
got back home to find a padron 1926 80th anniversary sitting there from mr sputnik

im gonna enjoy this one tomorrow :cowboyic9::cowboyic9:
thank you thank you man, ive been wanting to get my hands on a padron to restore my faith in NCs!

A welcome swap this was my friend. Let me know what you think, as I will do the same when I spark up my Punch d'Oro. :849:

[Lascaux]

just started the padron now, very nice start. real strong taste of tea. beautiful so far!

[HabanoSy]

How's the Padron going Lascaux...? :41:

Looking forward to reading a full review once you've enjoyed your fine smoke... :typing:

Cheers, HabanoSy

[HabanoSy]

C'mon Lascaux...

Don't leave us hanging...

How was that Padron of yours...!?!

Cheers, HabanoSy

P.S. Did you manage to pick up one of those Solingen 'Purdey' V cutters...? If so, what do you think of it...?

[Lascaux]

that padron was one of the best cigars ive had, NC or CC. I cant really think of a cuban that has a similar taste profile? possibly the JL 2s (I get strong taste of tea from them too)

really beautiful taste of tea throughout. Didn't get at all harsh until the last inch.
10/10 burn, didnt need correcting once. really solid cigar but had great draw and didn't feel overpacked.
The taste was never bitter, you could take a slow light draw and the flavour would be different to taking a strong draw.
Had it on an empty stomach and the last of the cigar had my head spinning
will write a proper review of these when i can get my hand on a few more. :smoke:

are these hard to get boxes of now?

ps havent yet got that V cutter, getting payed in a few weeks so will invest in one then

[larrysputnik]

Glad you enjoyed the 80th maduro Lascaux.

I had the Punch d'oro last night after a day of painting. It was awesome! Thanks! :hail:

P.S. The 80ths are rare. They come in a box of 8 for $200. Do you want me to look for some for you?

[Lascaux]

yeah that'd be great, well worth it!

[HabanoSy]

Glad you enjoyed the Padron Lascaux...

I've had my eye on obtaining some of these babies for a while...

Last time I was in JJ Fox they had them there, may have to pay a visit and obtain a couple...!?!

Larrys offer of a box of eight is also very tempting...? You should definitely take him up on the offer...

Cheers, HabanoSy

[larrysputnik]

yeah that'd be great, well worth it!

I'm on the lookout for you this weekend. Will report back my findings. :smoke:
