FOH'ers Daily Smoke

[inter4alia]

Getting this in before the sun gets high and starts to roast this great city. 

Cheers 

 

Finish the day strong. Been slowly, or maybe not so slowly, working my way through El Presidente's CC newbie sampler.

Is that the Siglo III from the 24:24 a couple weeks back?

No brought these back from Cuba first of the month.

I rarely smoke in the morning, but after 11hrs of brush chipping i'm not doing anything today! Great with a french press dark roast.

How does it compare to a standard Opus or Angel's Share? I never seem to see anything about these - even the Forbidden seems more popular.

ULA MAR 14 LGC MdO4 this morning after breakfast. Good to go! Light exotic wood, deep Cohibaesque grass and honey, fruits with cream (somewhere between melon and sweet berries) and some earth, coffee and pepper giving it some ass on the back end. Top tier.

Edit: into the final third and some lovely cocoa notes as well as a soft, chalky body are possible to coax out with careful attention to draw rate. All the previous is now overlaid with a bouqet of freshly-dried flowers giving way to freshcut exotic woods; this is the flourish Fonseca dreams about when it sleeps at night.

Also, SEP 16 PLP. Bought a box on a lark instead of my regularly-scheduled Monte Carlos restock. Ugh. May turn around after some more time and to be fair, I am basing this off of smoking one lone cigar from the box, but this was not enjoyable. At least, not like the MC I had to smoke afterwards to get a reliable PL hit. EML SEP 14 PLMC was fantastic as (almost) always. Have 2 remaining beautiful boxes of same code, but those are for longer-term aging. Onto some TOS 16 boxes next, I believe.

And a Contigo travel mug - sensible chap! Marvelous things.

Finally had to try the Party Shorts from our host last night.  All in all ok, 5 years aged but didn't have a ton of flavor.  Going to let the box sit some more and hopefully settle after the trip.

Out in DC at Jack Rose last night. La Aroma De Cuba with a few flights, drams, and drinks.

This was only my second Lost City so hard for me to say. I prefer the original Opus line. This LC seemed more woody with some sour notes. Was a very good cigar. I find the regular opus to be more powerful with more spice. Angel share to me are cinnamon bombs. Awesome smoke!

Grabbed a custom that I was gifted years ago. A double lingero Fernandez Rolled at the LCDH in Tijuana in 2010.

Paired with a large gin and tonic. This is a wonderful smoke!

[SigmundChurchill]

Nice cigar.  Thanks @ElJavi76!

Inspired by the ISO threads

Very nice smoke - already ranked above the Partagas D6 in the HSA lineup of half Coronas.
