Let's start the tat redemption... wait what?
(Ok first of thank you
@WNYTONY
for sending this cigar, but you should have included an idiot disclaimer.)
When I first took the cigar out of the cello all I could smell was wet dog (and im thinking that's a great start), which I've never gotten from any other stick. Then the cut. Cut once, looks good, draw test, nothing. Second cut, draw test, nothing...wtf?! Grab draw tool, drill one hole, no real resistance in or out, draw test, Notthing. Another hole, pull out pretty much nothing, draw test, NOTHING! I was just about to pitch it, when my eyes got a glimpse of the foot... I'm a moran . This thing has a closed foot, which is so perfect I couldn't even see it in 5 minutes of mucking around with it.
Incredibly after all that it lit up and draws perfectly, which by itself is enough for me to appreciate the construction of these things in a whole new light. Flavors are also amazing. Woodsy central, with a little pepper and cinnamon, and a tobacco sweetness that likes to come and go and evolves into a sourdough sweetness which I love. Very interesting. Thanks so much Tony, you've enabled this bum that much more.

Now that's pretty damn funny ! Disclaimer The TAA's have a closed foot too !
Glad you enjoyed it - that's one of my favorites.
Last day of my long golf weekend..... so sad
Started the day out with this Torano from 2013 - an excellent cigar that time has only made better
on to a Cigar Factory torpedo sent to me by a good brother elsewhere
and tonight a little Headley Grange because I was too busy, tired and lazy to walk downstairs to grab a Tat !
No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

Cloud Hopper for Wed, even with the brutal heat outside, this was still very enjoyable. I am so ready for fall to get here...
