2013 La Aurora Corojo #4 with light coffee on a very mid-Fall kind of morning.
I had this one cut and ready to go as my final smoke of the night (~11pm). Put it in my mouth, tasted the tip and woke up at 4am with it dangling, none the worse for the wear and ready to be lit. Too bad no one took a picture, you guys would have appreciated it and it would have been perfect next to my obituary.
Long ago I developed a preference for coronas by La Aurora over their thicker rings. I liked the pack, draw and flavor intensity. A nice corojo but I would have enjoyed this leaf more at night.
The Gran Toro and Torpedo are on sale at CigarsInternational @$69.99 a box of 25 but the #4 (the one that I'm smoking) is not @$140.99. $2.80/stick.

To my sensibilities, Peterson went too far when he used a switch to discipline his 4yo son but it was the discipline that he knew and he was (certainly in his mind) taking responsibility as a parent. Peterson has been reviled and he lost a year of his career so he's had punishment but for what crime? Not having the same values as (the general) society that has no standards nor guidelines so that parents wilt from their responsibilities in fear of recrimination?
When I became a grandparent I did what I couldn't have done as a (new) parent, I devised a cogent discipline plan that requires time and effort and no possibility of spanking (it's not my place). Our society, in perception and law, stands ready to punish without having clearly stated what the rules are. Why aren't parenting classes mandatory just as driving courses are? Is the raising of our children less important than getting to the mall?
There is a difference between abuse and discipline but we, as a society, expect it to be intuitive when it's not because parenting is a difficult business and circumstances require different response and approach. I support mandatory expectant parental education but not the elimination of 'the hand to the butt' that, when rarely and judiciously applied (not with a lot of force), has been an important parenting tool for millennia. Our society's future depends on it.
Regards,
Pete
Not sure of my next smoke as this La Aurora Corojo corona has some mileage remaining.

The La Musa looks fine...band and all...looking forwards to your thoughts on the cigar.
About a quarter of the way along with this Curivari reserva Limitada Petite Cafe...4.5x42...that I received in a bomb from WNYTONY ...this lil fellas burning very evenly and I could not ask for a better cigar of this size, excellrnt construction of course great smoke production and flavour full...wow...thanks Tony.
Every day should be a Maduro day! I enjoyed it quite a bit. Out of the 2 very well aged sticks I've smoked from Donnie I preferred the Black Pearl to this. But there was only 1 Black Pearl and I have another LCG Serie R Maduro so I'm excited to smoke it again!Quote:

Thanks again!
Love that cigar! I purchased a box last year, but some @$$hole keeps stealing them. I hope to be able to rest a few before he smokes them all. Beautiful boxes also!...Quote:

Serie R tonight to continue the set. Unfortunately, I only have natural at this point. R, then Esteli, then RF
@DogRockets C'mon Jeremy, at least let them get a little age on them first. :stogie:Quote:
