Smoked a Tat Tattoo and a Padron 6000 while playing golf.

There's a spectrum of toleration, from 'feel free to smoke 100 yards away' to 'you cannot re-enter the house without disrobing.'
I hear Dat ODO, I change clothes after late afternoon smoke , or wife does her pucker the nose up routine, Montecristo Platium yesterday after a boudin run, Cajun rice meat sausage for you Yankees, wife had Oral Surgery and cannot eat on one side, boudin is soft mushy, Oh got a box of Jaimie Garcia’s Espical Belicoso Muduro coming in thanks to you guys steering me to a good smoke.
Acid cigars are different. The base leaves are good, and they are infused with sweet spices.It is very difficult to explain how does it taste.Indians traditionally chew betel leaves and there are two broad varieties- the spicy variety with tobacco and the non tobacco variety which contains flower extracts, herbs and other sweet stuff. It is common in India to chew the non-tobacco sweet variety as a dessert / palette cleanser after a very heavy meal. If you smoke a normal cigar along with chewing the sweet betel leaf, the experience you will get is very similar to the ACID cigar.
The smoke ? from ACID tastes sweet and herbal as mentioned above. There is a distinct aftertaste of herbal sugar if you lick your lips after exhale. I can see that this would be polarizing- some will like it to a large extent and others will not. For me since it evokes a certain memory I will smoke it occasionally as dessert after a heavy lunch but I will not be able to smoke it regularly- it is too sweet.

I need some pipe mud, so yesterday I smoked a Rosalones Torpedo from Nicaracua.
Beautiful day for a cigar.
Got a nice burn out of this Undercrown 'shade', not too mild, not too strong.
I'm really liking Drew Estate these days.

Posted this earlier in the main "What Are You Smoking" thread, but...
I'm smoking an Undercrown Sungrown Corona. What a massive let down. I LOVE the regular Undercrowns, but this thing makes me feel like I'm 15 and smoking a White Owl. Just a blah, one dimensional, leathery, meh. This thing should be a $2.00 cigar. Maybe it's just a dud, I have another, so I'll see how it goes.

Was probably my favorite Drew Estate cigar (not the biggest fan of DE overall), but I just finished a box of Belicosos i bought when they were still pretty new and the last few that I smoked recently were pretty bland. Maybe they age very poorly. But when they were fresh, i thought they were rich, creamy and full of semi-sweet baking spices.
That's interesting. I've read that the Liga #9s are supposed to be smoked fresh. Could be the same deal here.
That last stick left me with an empty feeling inside. The remedy? Cohiba Red Dot.
Drew Estate Liga Privada No 9 in Robusto. It's been months since I smoked a cigar. Unfortunately, although it's a great cigar, I couldn't finish more than half. I have about 50 cigars in my humidor but I'm finding that the more I smoke pipes the less I can tolerate cigars. Anything more than a corona is just too long of a smoke.
