Tropical Storm ETA is headed our way but we are already having torrential rain and it's blowing 25 mph to 45 mph!  No weather for a proper CC so went with an old standby that always burns well (even when it's humid out) and never disappoints!  AF R44 - this one has about 3 to 4 years resting in the humi.

Something really nice this evening. Celebrating being down 26lbs when I got on the scale this morning. About 20 more to go, lol!

You digging that dragons milk?  New Holland is about 15 min from me.  They got some good spirits as well as beers

Yes! Goes well with a cigar, too. Didn't know they make booze, and I'd like to try some of their other beers. Will be on the lookout.

Another Corona Extra type, next weekend's forecast is going back to seasonal. Time to switch to petit coronas and pantanelas

Oh the weather. Winter coming up and my cigar smoking will soon decrease, so...

After watching the latest FOH video review, figured I'd torch a Monte 1 BOE DIC 18. One of the best cigars I've had this year was from this box. But this one, like a bunch of the others, had a frustratingly tight draw. Mediocrity. Bummer.

Consolation: another fantastic 2017 PLMC.

Nudie N1. These are smoking perfectly right about now, nice peanut flavor comes and goes.

Congrats!! That’s quite an accomplishment in this craziness....most folks I know are gaining weight, not losing.  Good job!

Enjoyed a RYJ Churchill tonight. 
 

Great smoke!

Congrats! Not easy at all

i would’ve celebrated with a nice juicy steak and fries...maybe that’s why I’ll never lose that much weight ??

H. Upmann Connoisseur No.1 BRE Nov 2018

Onto our ever-present journey of discovery in regards to the quality of this late quarter-2018 box of H.Upmann Connoisseur No.1 and it seems that things are starting to look quite positive. I have now gone through 40% of the box (i.e there are 15 cigars left) and excepting one or two, they've been very good to excellent thus far.

This example was again a little lighter on shortbread in comparison to other H.Upmann Connoisseur No.1s I've had, but it made up for it in the way the coffee, cedar, licorice and twang was so well-balanced throughout the cigar. It was uniformly excellent throughout the thirds, I had no issue nubbing it down to the final third.

In the interest of remaining objective, I handed out this cigar to some dear friends to smoke with me (i.e @Fuzz and @jay8354), let them smoke it through to the first third and then preceded to mention the on-line discussion over the quality of this box code. Their experience confirmed my positive assessment of the cigar as reported in this review and in the standard of the H.Upmann Connoisseur No.1s I've smoked recently.

It goes without saying that I was well-pleased to hand out a cigar that smoked so well and was so pleasing to the palate for all three of us on a fine social occasion.

Thanks for the kind words.  
 

Yes, I do sell them.  DM inquiries.  
They’re not cheap.  They’re completely made on a manual lathe.  But they’ve been well received.

I have no idea what you are talking about @JohnS. I do not provide any endorsement for the H.Upmann Connie No.1 BRE NOV 2018 ..... unless I am paid.

Masters Week!!!!! Even though it’s coming at a different time this year it’s still and will always be one of my favorite sporting events to watch. 2010 Partagas 898 to kick things off.
