Just enough time for a short today.

A year ago today I came back from Havana. My last trip anywhere. Took the day off today and had a couple of outstanding cigars. It’s been a while since I’ve had two 95 point cigars on the same day. 
 

I’ve been able to be outside on the balcony a lot lately but tonight was cold and windy so back to the garage. We got a new love seat and the old one is in the garage waiting for garbage day next week. My wife came out for a minute and said I should keep it there. Very nice of her since her car would be the one on the driveway instead of in the garage. 
 

opened a new rum I picked up in Cuba a couple of years ago, it was quite enjoyable.

Extremely good CORO from the Christmas sampler. Thanks to my uncle we were able to skip the drive from the Bay Area coming up to Tahoe...I’m ruined 😅

How was it?

As consistent as the rest of the box. Light-medium body, very flavorful.  Vegetal almost floral notes, with the smoke off the foot reminding me of frankincense.

Friday smokes. A young RASS and an Epi 2.

Wonderful experience after a week of very mediocre smokes, and a rough week last week. The weather was very warm this week but it was very windy and that ruined things. It was cold tonight but nice and crisp and still.

The RASS almost knocked me out. It had me feeling like I did when I didn't smoke much and smoked a cigar too fast and felt green. Cleared my palate and my sinuses. Been ages since a cigar had almost too much smoke output. It was like a reboot. Felt like what Tarantino said about the song like a virgin, in Reservoir Dogs 😂

Went inside and had an Medium roast espresso and it was the best coffee I had in ages.

Smoking the Epi 2 shortly after I felt like I was on vacation in Cuba, smoking to my heart's content at the end of the day. Thought about Shawshank and Andy saying his time in the hole was the easiest time he ever did 😂

Many thanks to @Tave1225 for gifting this gorgeous AUM Jun 15 Sig V to me PIF style. Beautiful morning.

Dogsitting for my aunt and uncle. Their pup Mickey, a white golden is a little poorly trained bitch boy who can't be left alone, so my lady and I are living ad their house for a few days.  When he's not jumping on your and trying to bite your clothes off, he's actually really cute.. 

Nice little Friday work setup with some tasty sticks and a good view.  They live across the pond from the 18th hole of PGA's Champ course where they'll host the Honda Classic next week.

Love those with some age on them. That’s a nice way to start the day

How do you cleanse your palate for back to back smokes?

How was the epi deluxe with that much age? I have had a hunch about these for a bit as they seem very rich when young almost like a turbocharged epi 2

I have sampled quite a few of the 2012 epi deluxe as I know a vendor who had stock until a couple of years ago. I have noted that they have lost some of their sweetness and creaminess recently. They are much more woodier now. The cigar was just pleasant until the middle of the second third and then turned into something really great. Mostly woody with a touch of pepper and a little spice. The woodiness wasn't over powering though. I burned my fingers smoking this one. Definitely the best cigar that I had today.

I sold one of my boxes last year and now have only 17 sticks left. I think that I will hold on to these as I doubt that I will find any more 2012 boxes at the original German price given that everything that has more than 5 years on it is expensive now. The only downside is that it's a little too fat for such a short cigar.

I usually wait half an hour or fifteen minutes at a minimum. Have a coffee and a soda, maybe an apple.

Stepped out on my furniture-less deck for a smoke today.  First chance to smoke outside where I wasn’t trudging through the woods in Michigan.  Lovely day.  I’m a month from bringing my furniture out but I’m looking forward to it.  This Mag 46 paired with an oversized coffee hit the spot.

HDM RS:  These are just bonkers.  If you’ve been scared by the goofy size and haven’t tried them, you need to give them a go.  As I often remind my wife, I’m very rarely wrong, so you can take this recommendation to the bank.
