One very big cigar from the Dominican Republic by way of my good buddy Alan S. who sent it to me as a Birthday present, a couple of months ago. Kept it in my humidor until now waiting for the right time and mood. Extremely easy light and a nice open draw.With the first few puffs 'something' was right there, maybe a bit of pepper or spice that oddly was not present on the retrohale at the time. After about twenty five minutes the strength seemed to reach medium/full and stay there before moving up a bit towards the end. Only rarely can I pick up on a flavour note that Id risk trying to name. This cigar is one of three that tasted,to me,like black cherry. The burn line got a bit uneven around the forty five minute mark,quick touch up with a match then very sharp all the way to the finish. The spice or pepper note seemed to fade then returm on the retrohale over the last half of the cigar.The ash was rather flaky,tho not too bad. Retrohale was never harsh. A thoroughly enjoyable large cigar,thanks for your much appreciated gift Alan.

Bob, I know it's been discussed before, but every time you post a picture with that ashtray I spend more time looking at the ashtray than I do the cigar. Knowing some of the backstory just makes it that much cooler. [emoji106]

I'm sure @allusred would be happy to give the full story but from what I remember he actually got it in Cuba many years ago.

So I woke up to this Friday morning

They said we might get an inch, but we rarely get snow so I am always skeptical. Snowed heavily until about 2pm for a total of aprox. 6-7"
Decided to grab one of these big guys for a really long smoke looking out on the snow covered landscape.

Friday the 18th. Flores y Rodriquez Canonazo Maduro...6.75x58. Oddly smoking some oversizef cigar of late. Must amend that "trying to smoke" lit this one up then had to put iot down and get a few things done, two hours later relit...and of all things it's burning cooler and milder..wot? Last three quarters stayed like this.Guess I'll have to try another of these, but not until I've had a few smaller ones.

Two Hours of snow...two Hours of smoke...makes sense to me.With some Dead for the ears, alls OK.
If the weather forecast is correct we'll be seeing some of the same on Saturday.
Have Cigars & Matches, so will only need to keep the hot cofee coming and hibernate 'til Spring's sprung.

Starting off my Saturday with a little Villiger Export cigar.
