‘03 RAG - had to dig one up after the beneath the band post on these as it’s been ages since I smoked one. What an absolute treat! Light medium body but super complex and delicious. Peach, nectarine, boiled raisin. Like smoking a fruit salad. Retro intensified these incredible fruit flavors. 2 1/2 hours smoking this stunner.

Had a great smoke session with @Havanaaddict at his home lounge. Didn't manage to take pics, but will score 'em in his style. Monday afternoon cigars '86 Punch Exquisitos in cello (picture for reference) Saltines '98 Punch Royal Selection No.12 (picture for reference) Sweet clove maxed out Now I know why you got the nickname Mr. 98. This was a phenomenal smoke. Blah Ok Good Tasty Heavenly

La Gloria Cubana Orgullosos Edición Regional Suiza 2018. Such a wonderful cigar.

Good evening everyone...

Partagas D4 UMR DIC '20. No less than 4 distinct flavor transitions. Every cigar from this box has been top tier. While I doubt they have peaked entirely, I can't imagine them getting any better. So, do I smoke through them over the next year or continue to have 1 or 2 annually?

Broke out the big gun for the big 4-0. TUA SEP 21. Absolute bliss!

LaoFan was passing by my area and this was a great chance to have him stop by the house for a few cigars in my home lounge! We had a great few hours getting to know each other better while sharing some fine old cigars. He gifted me a 86' Montecristo Especial (sorry was just caught up in the moment I forgot to take a pic🙃) And of course he had to gift me a cigar before he left, a Saint Luis Rey Adamastor Edición Regional Portugal and a beautiful cigar tube. Thank you my friend was a enjoyable time and look forward till the next time!

These were all morning coffee smokes: Toscano Originales . So good I will be buying a bunch of them soon! Charter Oak PC. Caldwell. I have smoked a couple of these so far. They are pretty uneventful, albeit in an innocuous way.

Quick Coloniales before a 100-person Eritrean barbecue.

Connie B PTE Mar 24. First from the box. So so good. Draw was great and zero burn issues. Can't wait to hit this box again in 3-6 months.

A perfect Carlota today 👌

Party Maduro #1.

Very nice.

Aladino 85th Anniversario featuring pinareño-seed tobacco. Fair amount of approachable spice with Hay, cedar, floral, and citrus with a slightly sweet creamy chocolate undertone. Interesting combo.

Boli got a new chance today. BRC 2018 from our host. Bad burn but nice smoke.
