There's a humidifier in the hut but it is as dry as the sand out here. Trying to bring it back to life.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8f330c1831.jpg

Don't mean to sway you so by all means give it a shot but not my thing.

Glad to see you enjoying the Four Kicks and yes the BBB is every bit as good. You say you need some ?????

Thanks for your take on them, I have heard very good things about the Cream Crush.
I really do enjoy the Four Kicks, as for the BBB I will be placing an order for some stuff this weekend and will throw some in the cart. I am really looking forward to trying them.

Had a double on Monday

My son heard I was having a tough day at work, so he went out and bought this Macanudo for me and dropped it by. Lucky Bum

Mid Afternoon Tuesday smoke. Quesada Oktoberfest Kurz...4x50. Soon as lit burn line progressed from wavy to one sided.
tried a couple of times to correct, to no avail.
Other than than the 'lop sided' burn this was an excellent little cigar, well enjoyed.
Burn time, One Hour and Three Minutes.

This afternoon I had a 4.7X60 Joya de Nicaragua Antono 1970 Grand Consul cigar.:stogie: This cigar has been resting in my 65% rh humidor since 3-8-2016. After lighting, I got a rich leather, and coffee. This cigar was somewhat oily, very heavy (in weight) and dense. The draw was good with one thin vein which presented no problems.:wavey: The flavors were very good and normally I would have been very satisfied except that I had tried this same cigar in a smaller ring gauge and it was excellent. When I smoked this cigar with a smaller ring gauge, the flavors from the wrapper was better and added additional complexity.:crazy: I realize that the ratio difference between wrapper and filler was less and the flavors were enhanced. I am not ready to fall into the corona size sticks, but I won't go towards the 60 size either.:wave: I have learned from this experience that ring gauge can definitely affect the cigar flavor profiles. I topped off this smoke with a large cup of hot coffee and am wiser today than I was yesterday.:santa:
