Okay, not today but on Saturday.

As a total beginner I'm now getting the hang of this - it's really quite exciting. The first couple of cigars I had it was a case of "enjoyed more" or "enjoyed less" but now I'm starting to pick out the various flavours - cream, leather, honey and almonds, oddly.

Oh, and as a bonus I no longer feel dizzy or sick afterwards!

I enjoyed this Punch but I still think my favourite of the cigars I've tried to date is the R&J Short Churchill; I'm really looking forward to some more of these.

Has anyone had a Fonseca no. 1? I had one the other week and enjoyed it - not too strong, good for a beginner, very even burn and nice easy draw, but I think perhaps it was a bit lacking in flavour. They're tremendous value but I just wondered if they would be maybe a bit dull to someone with more experience?

Olls.

I haven't has a Fonesca, Olls, but I think it's great that you are finding trying new cigars exciting. That's brilliant! :biggrin1: :cowboyic9::biggrin1:

Had a Montecristo No5 earlier in the morning to be precise before I headed out into the snow flurries. Gabriel.

:41:Yep. Almost as good as a CoRo, but not quite.

Enjoyed another last night followed by a Trinidad Reyes. Some nights require two. :41:
