Took two days off to chill out and take advantage of some rare warm December weather, kicking today off with a Destino al Siglo Amistad and a Espresso Doubleshot from Starbucks. Usually not a huge Starbucks fan but these are good and I've never found a cigar it isn't good with.

Round 2 is a Room 101 Johnny Tobbaconaut Ranflactic with another Doubleshot. I love the logo for these.
For those who haven't seen the logo:

First one I had was great. This one doesn't seem to want to stay lit, multiple wrapper patches and green spots. A little disappointed to be honest. Taste is pretty good but the construction on this one is frustrating. I guess that's part of the chance you take when the cigar is wrapped in tissue and then a paper sleeve, you can't really inspect it well pre-purchase.

Yeah, same with the Room101 Namakubi...well, I think I'll take a chance on a couple next time. I'm not a huge fan of a few of their cigars, but I think the original Daruma was outstanding so I keep trying the brand.

That Daruma is a lovely cigar no matter the vitola IMO!
And they have 2 Namakubis, the plain Namakubi & the Ecuador. The Ecuador is a nice smoke. They are not clear on the difference in the description. Haven't had the plain Namakubi.

Thank s Steve (Old Smokey) ...

Pushed brewing capacity and things went well, which calls for a cigar, right? Of course!
Going through my stash I figured I should go for the longest as winter is upon us which brought up this honker of a stogie sent from
@DogRockets
, an Undercrown.
I almost feel take advantage of this is so good! Checking it out it states it's a M-Full Maduro, and maybe I'm not quite the wuss I was, but this thing is awesome! This thang is smoooooth!
Thanks Jeremy!
