Watching Serena Williams climb out of a 6-4 and 4-0 deficit against Victoria Azarenka Wednesday night, was a thrilling event full of drama. The 22 year old from Belarus gave her veteran opponent the run of her life. She was within two games of making a landmark upset until, in the last possible moment, Serena managed to pull an amazing comeback from the brink of defeat. A good cigar certainly helped absorb all the excitement and Mike managed to smoke five of them during the late night-early morning match.

He started with the Arturo Fuente Chateux Cuban Belicoso (5 ¾ x52). Mike considers this the best cigar made by Fuente. It is a succulent cigar, solid and robust with complex flavors and notes of dark coffee and cinnamon. Hi octane, oily and full of flavors this Fuente is a hell of a smoke!

Next is the Montecristo Classic No. 2 Torpedo (6x50). It was the first cigar I fell in love with and like all first loves the Montecristo No. 2 will stay with me forever.

Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Belicoso (6 1/8 x 52) is a wonderfully constructed, crisp and complex, rich and smooth cigar.

Number four was a Siglo Limited Reserve X Torpedo (6 x 54), bold, complex and amazingly refined, is the new crown jewel of Altadis. It is as good as it gets.

ast was the 898 Collection Belicoso (6 ¼x52). An awesome cigar with a medium body but, oh, so flavorful
