Cigar Weekly

I smoked one of these on Saturday as I relaxed in the sun with a nice cold Tecate. The Serie A was from 5/00.

It was freezing all day today, as Jordan (my son) and I had the Little League parade and opening ceremony. Then came home to help Suzi and Randi with yard sale. Froze our arses off again.

Once everything was picked up, I sat and relaxed.

This cigar was totally awesome!!!! I have a cab of these on my "to order list". It had some nice strength, but the complexity of the cigar amazed me. It went through numerous changes from start to finish. Nice earthy flavors, but also the nice natural sweet taste of tobacco. The aroma of this cigar was to die for. My neighbor probably thought I was nuts as I frequently ran the cigar under my nose.

Construction was good. Had to do a couple touch ups, but that was due to the slight breeze blowing. The draw was only slightly tight, but still got a nice amount of smoke.

Damn............ what a good smoke. I didn't want this thing to go out.

You and that damn Tacate beer! Look Bill, if you can't find decent beer in ML then e-mail me and I will rush a care package up to you. I just can't watch a NWFPC brother drink that crap!

I'd rather be driving; either golf balls or my Dodge!

I love those Serie A's. The box I got has some beautiful reddish color wrappers, and taste just great.
Thanks for that review.

I got some of the 98s and I have only smoked one and it was superb.

Awesome smoke. Nothing wrong with a Tecate either.

Tecate can be saved with the proper mix of lime and salt.
