PCF Cigars (5 Viewers)

Took advantage of the "Artic Cold Front" and had a fire on the patio and a Queen B.

Angel's Envy and Brickhouse...it was a good weekend.


How do they compare to the Serie V Melanio? That is a staple in my humidor.

I may be in the minority, but I like Serie V better than SVM. Melanio is lighter to me and doesn't quite have the flavor as SV. This is a prime example [for me at least] where the higher priced cigar is not as good. Don't get me wrong, I still like SVM a lot. Brick House, not so much. Angel's Envy goes well with a cigar with its port finish.

Hmmm. I find the Melanios to be pretty clearly above the Vs, but the Vs are great, so it’s like saying I like a really, really nice Ferrari versus a normal Ferrari.

Minority I will be. It's subjective like one time a friend gave his cousin a great My Father and the cousin didn't like it. He couldn't finish half of it. I gave him a cheapo, but good for the price and he loved it. I said, "Damn man, I wish we could have just traded before you lit it."

Completely subjective.

Completely understand. I have brands that I simply have not found a cigar I can stomach. I'm talking about you Perdomo and AVO.

Have you tried Perdomo 20th Anniversary Maduro or Habano? I agree with AVO. I only like a few CAOs, but much better than AVO. Now Gurkhas, don't get me started. So overrated. Fits my Marine friend to a tee though. The biggest deception in the cigar industry is Davidoff. So over priced and 86% not good unless you like light cigars.

Yep, yep, yep. The Perdomo Maduros are good stuff. I also like the champagnes for a lighter, casual smoke. Have yet to try any of the CAO samples I have. Don’t have any AVOs. Still waiting for one of the Davidoff samples I have to impress. I am not optimistic.

I have not tried the Maduro. Funny you mentioned CAO. The CAO maduro used to be my go to 2 decades ago. I will give it a try.

The champagne was probably the biggest disappointment for me. I was so excited to try that cigar and it tasted like I was smoking a cigar.
 
You're a good man Charlie Brown. Can understand. Getting one in at 69° in the garage (24 outside) with the heaters on after driving 4 hours round trip to visit my parents. Cain Daytona 660.

Merry Christmas from Old Man Gower (OMG). Yeah Gower is my last name and OMG likes his cigars too. I don't play like OMC though.
