What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

[jamespowers]

I jumped on that special CI had on Man O' War last week.
They arrived today and I was happy I did. Tried one out
tonight. It was still a bit dry but smoked just fine. It's a
solid, full bodied cigar. I'm going to enjoy these.

Good to know that. Thanks for the review. I'll have to get ahold of some of those.

I'm wearing my Champ Featherweight in this, too.

My close friend RatPfink was nice enough to webcam me and put me on YouTube. However, I made him promise that if it gets any salacious comments from anyone not verifiably female, it has to come down.

Last night it was a Padron 1926 Anniversary super-robusto - wonderful smoke on a beautiful 70 degree evening.

Tonight in the hammock on a cool night, we both had delicious Por Larranagas. I had a glass of wine to go with it.

I think you'll like them.
Probably knock the Campdraft right off IC's bean.
Smoked another last night and noted that the flavor
is surprisingly consistent throughout the smoke. A lot
of my favorite cigars build up flavor as they go.

Since I'm usually drinking more or less the same thing
with my cigar, I figure I should list the hat I'm wearing
when I smoke now. Last night it was the Bee "Custom
Beaver Blend" (7 1/2 LO). Stingies are for wearing after
the sun goes down.

Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Presidente

 

[vonwotan]

After dinner last night we each enjoyed a L.J. Peretti Co. 125th Anniversary Cigar produced in the Arturo Fuente factory. It is made with the binder and filler of the Fuente Don Carlos but with a Connecticut shade wrapper. A wonderful end to a gluttonous evening.

Macanudo 1968 Robusto 5x50 (a little too peppery for my taste)

This afternoon I was compelled to take the Mrs. shopping for new clothes. The saving grace of the trip was that there is a Tinder Box in the mall we went to. I visited there and found two cigars I hadn't tried before, an Ashton Aged Madura corona and a Fuente Hemingway classic. I smoked the Ashton this evening and found it to be completely enjoyable along with a glass of my recently discovered Dalmore Cigar Malt. I'll save the Hemingway for another day when I can relax with it as well.

My in-laws live in Mobile, AL. IIRC, there's a cigar store there called the Tinder Box - I wonder if it's a chain or just a coincidence? I haven't been there since 2000 (I don't like to travel, and our house is bigger than their apartment, so I prefer them to visit us), but I recall them being rather pricey - at least half-again what I pay at cigar stores here. Bigger market (and stores), I suppose...

The Hemingways are of course excellent cigars, IMHO. For Christmas every year, they release both the Classic and Signature size in maduro - a personal favorite. Also during that time, they release the Untold Story (a bigger size than the others, only in maduro) and the Masterpiece (both in regular/camaroon and maduro).

Enjoy!
