First cigar in probably a month yesterday, since I got more into pipes. Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne. Their good reputation is totally justified. Reallly flavorful but mild, good burn, very satisfying.

Enjoying a Padron 1926 maduro that Mrs. Cool Breeze got me for my birthday.
Here is the cigar, as well as Mrs. Cool Breeze. She is in focus rather than the cigar. Probably not a bad thing.
Stay smokey my friends. :stogie:

Had a couple of bourbons and a cigar with my dad yesterday afternoon.
We enjoyed LAdC Mi Amor's by the pool with drinks in hand. Forgot to take pics of the cigars, but I did remember the bourbon:

Started with a High West Bourye, and then moved on to a couple servings of Noah's Mill...
It was a great afternoon!
Camacho ABA. And it's only 900 degrees outside, down from the sweltering 901.

After all how can one be expected to take pictures and/or smoke cigars if they might have forgotten that Bourbon is the Water of Life ?
Knew I was missing something today...thanks for showing me what's needed to survive this cold spell.
Good thing you haven't cut yourself out of your winter union suit prematurely this year, winter's end has to be neigh, or at least not too far off now.Quote:

Is there seriously an 11x120?!? If so, we may need to find a way to covertly contact Tony's wife... :poke:Quote:

Not certain about the 11x120 size...Once I saw the 60 rg... then 64... then 68rg cigars I figure it would not be long before we were presented with an 8 or 10 inch by 80rg, so figure some one would think, hell why don't were get the jump on the other and go right on to making a 10 or 11 inch x120 size.Quote:

Want to see pix?? Just let me know.
http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/...psefotoazm.jpg
The Oliva Serie V is a 6 inch by at least 60 ring gauge, as you can see plenty of room left for the 90 rng gauge cigar.
The HR Sublime is 6.5 inches by 54 ring gauge room for two and a half of these lain end to end.
Can't recall the burn time for the two Gigantes, but do know they were well made burned evenly , and yes they were good smokes enjoyed on the front porch on cooler nights than we've been getting of late.
Would I smoke these again, sure, just so long as the weather was a good bit nicer than it is right now.
PS: Would bet WNYTONY could get all the way 'round eighteen with one of these,so long as he didn't puff too quickly.
Video at eleven !!
Have smoked some of the La Imperiosa cigars, Corona Gordas all had good draw and smoked very nicely, expect the problem would lie in the degree of difficulty when rolling the Minuto size, tho really it is a size that one would expect not to be a problem. Blended and rolled by those used to the Cuban size smokes.Hopefully the one you smoked was that rare exception.Quote:

This, this is a Robusto. My Father #1 Robusto...5.2x52. I'm still making the adjustment to smoke the larger ring gauges in vogue now a days.Just the look and the weight in hand of this one reminds it'll need both time and attention, don't mean attention to how well it burns or to trying to keep the burn line even, heck no...this is a My Father cigar...Don Pepin Garcia...it would not dare to burn other than first rate, Let alone fail to be one fine smoke. Guess I should mention that I do kinda like Pepin's work.
Now having added some Appleton Estate Jamaica Rum all set to get on with my re read of "Little Star' Like Pepin Garcia Lindqvist is always a fine trip.

Pretty good

Now ain't that something, there you are "out for a walk and a smoke"...while all Jessie can do is try to remember what that thing called sleep might've been.Quote:

Worked today, got my daily nap, mowed the yard before it rained and now watching the Cards/Metropolitans while enjoying an Opus Robusto. Not a bad day for an old guy.
