let's see, so far you have me buying cigars at the sis, lining up for the next to last
day at the Carnegie deli, don't worry we have several Harold's deli in NJ, and they have a free pickle bar
with lunch & dinner. but no one is confirming or nay-saying my champagne choices.
Difficult to confirm or besmirch what one hasn't drunk.  I've had VC, but never the marques you mentioned. I dunno, I think even cheap Champagne is quite drinkable, so long as it's actually Champagne and it's Brut.
the orange label is their non vintage brut, white label vintage, Le Grand Dame, within a dollar or two of
Moet & Chandon - Dom Perignon

Should I create a champagne poll?

Who here has tried and really likes the Uncle Lee?
Pick me, pick me!  As others have noted, some uneven burn issues, but otherwise, solid medium to full bodied flavorful and consistent smoke.

I haven't yet.  The guys I gave boxes to for Christmas have each smoked one and gave it rave reviews, but none of those guys have terribly refined palates (including my dad) so I don't put much stock in their raves.  I kept a box for myself, but I'm going to give it a few weeks rest before I try one.

I thought I was jumping on the bandwagon.  There was a significant amount of coverage here, so I bought some to try.

No, I'll just complicate it.

I've had the white label, didn't realize that was the vintage.  Obviously I wasn't the one buying.  It was at my dad's wedding reception, so I presume it was The Tycoon that bought it, since he picked up the tab for all the alcohol.

I've seen blush/pink/rosé but why isn't there such a thing as red sparkling wine?

I'm thinking he's trying to get the attention off his own hair.

Mine just arrived from Holt's.  Did I tell you how much I paid?
