What did you smoke today? (Non-Habanos Edition)

Started my morning off with an Oliva G maduro and big cup of coffee. An excellent morning.

Otis wants a hit. He promises not to slobber on it

Chillin' with a grade school buddy, watching the giants game!

Good idea!. I set up a camera at the humidor. It's scary how much the friggin' thief looks like me. He's got to be Asian because they all look alike!...

You're on to something here...I'd not made the connexion until your (above) post.
Seems that any morning there're fewer cigars in the humidor than I recall being there the night before.
Those are the mornings when searching the fridge for somtehing to eat along with my coffee, there are a lot fewer frog legs...and worse of all
...clean out of Balut. Now,may simply be coincidence...but ?

Watching the game tonight with this Opus X Belicoso from my buddy, the baller @madmark

There's Otis! Steve how's that stick, I just ordered a box?

Alan, its not bad...good draw and nice burn. I got this stick as part of a Caldwell promotion a few months back... I can see myself buying some more

Opus X Lost City Piramide with coffee. Nice smoke with some trademark caramel notes from the Camaroon wrapper. Different from the regular Opus X and med bodied but not lacking any of the complexity. Nice smoke and worth trying but I won't be buying any more due to price...

Forgot how good these are. AJF never fails.

I too like most of what AJ makes. Perhaps it's individual body chemistry because there are some well regarded blenders, like Quesada for me, where I can rarely snuggle up to their sticks. Even the budget AJ sticks are pretty well made and consistent (Gurkha, are you listening?).

2013 Arganese Cafe Dominicana with light coffee and Willie & Lobo in the background.

Liked yesterday afternoon's stick (same) so well that I hadn't smoked since then (a while for me). This one's not as good, less sweet and distinct, some construction and wrapper issues but it fits the morning well. It's not finishing with the great aftertaste of the last.
