What did you smoke today (NC) II

[Old Smokey]

Went to the lounge late afternoon and enjoyed a delicious bowl of Dublin Cottle (Irish sausage stew) and then enjoyed an Illusion HL Candela Lancero. I am not a candela fan, but it's St. Paddy's Day.

I think I was trying to challenge @allusred for time. I set it down at 2 hours and had not taken the band off yet. Probably had another 30-40 minutes left on it.

Quesada tributo. Snapped a pic with this new app I downloaded that turns pics to paintings. Can't help but change every pic I take to a painting.

@droy1958 No problem, didn't read it as critical.

I had never heard of them either until recently.

They are hard to describe but full flavored, sweet floral intro into an odd end of the first third that had me wondering if it was infused (I don't think they are). But the halfway point gets super rich and complex full bore musk-leather-earth-coffee-cedar. Notes of vanilla. Sort of reminds me of CC Trinidad or something. Good stuff.

Well I may have to try one, as it sounds great....

I can dig it! I wasn't trying to criticize. After re-reading my post it may have sounded that way, but it wasn't meant to be critical.....Best, David

Hey Droy,
After the Daliesque look of the can of Pop caught my eye, the look of the cigar really got my attention, a very nice band and an attractive wrapper, and tho I've looked for the price of the cigar a hefty tag seems likely.I'm sure neither you nor I would expect to find the Debonaires in a B&M's bargain bin.Always nice to see smokes wearing a band that look so right on the cigar.

It's a nice looking presentation cigar, and sounds delicious. I'm not sure Salvador Dalí could beat it.....

That's cool.....

Happy St. Paddy's day you Bums..

The same back at you...and Otis. He looks as if he's done his bit of Stepdancin'( looks good in Green also) and a little nap in the warmth of the Sun is well deserved.

Blake let me be the first to say that image looks a lot like some cigars have looked to me due to* apps* of Jack Daniels.
Hope you'll restrain from posting selfies made in this fashion.

Thanks to @Tobias Lutz for this gem. A great way to start a day off, paired with black coffee:
