I just got that Xikar. Is yours a soft flame?

Yes.  ...It seems just "okay" to me.  The flame varies greatly depending on how full the tank is; it often needs multiple clicks to fire up; and it is useless in any wind situation.  (Yes, I purge it between fills.)  Of course, it could also be some other kind of "user error"   

Funny you should ask as I was just looking at some flat-flame, single jets yesterday to have another lighter as a comparison or perhaps trade up.  

How is your experience so far?

Yeah, it's super inconsistent and frustrating, but wondered if mine was just glitchy. I got a Xikar Allume due to my frustration with that lighter.

It’s colder outside than I was expecting lol. I’m patiently waiting the postman to bring me a very nice surprise.

Very disappointing. Underfilled. Tasteless.

After smoking the Rosado version yesterday, this morning I gave the Maduro Carlota Nudie (stored for 60 days) a try. Comparatively, this presents quite a distinct flavor profile (I am wondering how much beneath the wrapper is different than the Rosado cigar). Prominent flavor was umami (think barbecue) with a hint of sweetness (raisins?) and maybe a tinge of cocoa. Burn, draw, and construction were very good, and the smoke could almost be chewed. Unlike the Rosado, this one calmed down nicely in the last third. It's a good cigar, for sure.

Hoyo Epi1… the excellent 2019 UEB box keeps giving.

After some morning rain, ended up being a sunny afternoon, so I decided to light up a Punch-Punch LGB SEP 20. It’s only the second stick I’ve had from this box, but my goodness, I think the hype is real. Awesome smoke all the way through, no edges to be found.

Awful picture, great cigar. TUA Apr 21 BBF from our host. 6 months in hand, first check on their well being. Now I want them all, right now.

Have a wonderful holiday! Will be joined by family and good food later today. Spring is in our neighborhood along with a beautiful Monte Especiales  No. 2 from a fantastic OCT 2020 PSP box from our hosts. EDIT- too beautiful a day for just one. Added this BPC from LRE ABR 09. Great day.

Grillin'

A stormy yesterday evening called for something special, Vigia (APU Jul 2015).

Today brought other "blessings" ... 

HdM Elegantes (my favorite HdM) (UBM Sep 2019), which seemed a bit light compared to what I'd expected. ...So added a RA Club Allones (TOR Dic 2015), which never disappoints.

Happy Easter!!!
