My first HdM for a while: Epicure Especial from SAE ENE 24. It was super! Very good construction and burn. Classic lightish body but lots of flavour, with that creamy clove / ginger note that HdM is famous for. Little bit of youth in the last third, but I won’t wait for these.

Celebrating 57 years on the planet with a trip to the coast for a few days. I've decided it's time to crack open a few boxes that I was pondering on whether to keep or trade off for something else. I decided just smoke the damn things. I started the day with this TUA MAR 2021 while driving 2 hours to get materials to actually start working. Worked 5 hours, then drove 5 hours to burn this MAR OCT 2020 CORO. After a shower and some grub, I'm finishing off my cake day with a JL 2 that was gifted from a BOTL. I think the JL 2 was the winner today. That thing burned with a nice fruit in the background for almost 2 hours. It reminded me of those dark plums I  used to get off my grandma's tree when I was just a kid. The BRC was a solid stick as was the CORO. But at today's price point, Habanos may be in trouble with the CORO. I see them collecting dust.

Been a terrible time to be a UK Cigar smoker and I'm not just talking about the government. It literally NEVER STOP RAINING.

Having this Connie 1 on the porch looking out onto terrential rain. This one is a little darker than usual in terms of flavour profile, more coffee notes than I would expect from this stick, but it's my first in what feels like weeks.

Nice 2021 JL2 from our host tonight

Isn't that the truth! I'm about to head into the garage for a cigar.

Oslavte 57 let na planetě několikadenním výletem na pobřeží. Rozhodl jsem se, že je čas otevřít pár krabic, o kterých jsem přemýšlel, jestli si je nechat, nebo je vyměnit za něco jiného. Rozhodl jsem se jen kouřit ty zatracené věci. Začal jsem den s tímto TUA MAR 2021, když jsem 2 hodiny řídil, abych získal materiály, aby skutečně začal fungovat. Pracovalo se 5 hodin, pak 5 hodin jelo na spálení tohoto MAR OCT 2020 CORO. Po sprše a nějakém žvanení zakončím svůj dortový den s JL 2, který byl darován z BOTLu. Myslím, že JL 2 byl dnes vítězem. Ta věc hořela s pěkným ovocem v pozadí skoro 2 hodiny. Připomnělo mi to ty tmavé švestky, které jsem jako dítě slézal z babiččina stromu. BRC byla pevná hůl stejně jako CORO. Ale v dnešní cenové hladině mohou mít Habanos problémy s CORO. Vidím, jak sbírají prach.

Good health and happiness on your birthday ...

It was a beautiful late summer night. So I went to my friends house and had some smoked ribs then smoked a cigar. Double smoke night.😀  Hadn't had a Par Larranaga Montecarlo in a long time. This one was absolutely amazing. As usual had some bourbon with it. Never mind the writing on the glass.😆  Really liking how my shiny red 3d printed cigar holder turned out.

RG Perlas (TGA NOV 12). Deserving of a mini review: Has morphed into what’s become easily one of the finest cigars in my collection. Full-flavoured from the get go, fragrant and aromatic. Mediterranean herbs and spices (think wild majoram, thyme, sage – potpourri of aromas), but so nicely integrated that it’s difficult to dissect. And you don’t want to. Body initially staying mild-medium to slightly under medium. Tis not an in-your-face stick. With progressing, you get clove, Irish moss and a hint of marzipan with rose water coming into play, also caramel, touch of ginger, overlaying the core flavour profile (herbal-spicy). Then, freshly fallen chestnut leaves spring to mind. Steadily gaining in intensity. Further deepening with mocha and hazelnut notes towards the end. A blissful hour to the very nub. The 2012 release is without a doubt a unique cigar.

Note added for those interested, for that’s a constant matter of ‘storage’ debate: Cigars are being kept in their original petacas with the 25ct-cubes in Ziploc (a decade and counting) like I do with all cardboard packaging (either that or wrapped). No detrimental effects, no smell or taste of cardboard, no mustiness, no detectable loss of flavours. Quite the opposite. Cigars smell of tobacco with that ever so slight clove-vanilla note that has been so characteristic of the petacas right from the beginning.

Punch 48. Very enjoyable. My wife got raisin on the cold draw, I got a simple but enjoyable cigar on the smoking.

Happy birthday  @Greenhorn2
