My first cigar of this fine day was given to me by my daughter, who went to a shop and said "my dad likes cigars, can you help me". So of course - I now have to smoke what the shop guy sold her and she gave to me. So in tribute to Mr. Rockets and with thanks to my poor misguided daughter for the effort

A freakin' Gurkha ! Band says Private Select Abuelo and it was a whopping Churchill. No, it was not great and no I would not recommend it, but thanks to this 30 days of singles I now have it out of my possession forever. I had stuck it in a tupperwear and I'm not sure if it was the wax or what but it smelled funny and now the tupperwear smells and I may need to get rid of it.
My second (aka the back nine cigar) was an El Triunfador No 4 and that happily restored my faith in cigars :yes:
And tonight I'm just nubbing out an A Flores Gran Reserva Half Corona that is an excellent small cigar.
#'s 47, 48 and 49 in the books.
