I've had issues with the larger ring gauges too in the past and decided to just stick with the pyramid from that point forward.Quote:

With anything in life duds will happen. The ones I've had have always been in the sourdough flavor spectrum and no earthy notes at all, so I suspect a dud.Quote:

This one going well with my day off. Sunny, warm and quite blustery today. Wind from the west. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8faa240379.jpg

My favorite band ever. It's also a tasty cigar. Having uneven burn issues with this one, which is strange for these.
Having a nice Gurkha Boneless Chicken or Walking Pneumonia or Tender Cruelty, OK, I admit I don't remember what it is. Threw the band away a while ago. Anyway it's good! I don't normally smoke Gurkhas, as there are too many blends to pick from and those that are halfway decent tend to be overpriced. A co-worker gave it to me along with a Montecristo with a white band in exchange for a couple of Brohibas. I got the better deal :)
@Bruck funny thing. I just got one if those chicken tender today and although the burn is pissing me off the flavor is alright. Then again its got good company.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f3ea40ff93.jpg

Too bad I finished the bottle.
Lol! With the amount they do, very possible Gurkha does have all three of the "labels" you mention. Or if not, then you just may have named the first three releases of your Brohiba line!! :woohoo:Quote:

Love the Julius Ceaser & Maximus.
Flavors where good and in line with most good maduros, but I would highly recommend a punch cut. I used the perfect cutter and it was so loose I struggled to get a decent draw that wouldn't overheat the cherry.Quote:

Thursday Afternoon cigar. San Cristobal Seleccion Del Sol Fireplug...4.5x50. Want to reserve the Fireplugs I've left to be smoked over time since ther're no more of these cigar made.
Have only four other NC's, Vegas Cubanas, left to burn. Placed an order this morning for inexspense NCs to fill the expected gap until I'm able to snag some more VCs.
Too wet outside, too cool on porch so along side some good hot Coffee this one was smoked indoors.
Smoking Monkey claims that the images used as background for the cigar smoked, are how the Cigarbums that'll be attending the Cigarfest & Orgy really look ,and it's not a lot like the Avators they use when posting here.
S. M. promises to send me a cigar for each Bum I can name correctly, I'm fairly sure of 7 or 8 need to think about some others now,SM's only allows me until Noon Saturday to make my picks. [ He's watching for an USPS delivery to come in for David, then once He's taken his 60/40 split the rest will go into Droy's Humidor for the time being ]
Do hope Droy appreciates all the cigar orders that Smokin Monkey places for Him.
Burn time. One Hour and Twelve Minutes.

Had my first Oliva Connecticut Reserve Toro
Really like their Serie G maduro line and V Melanios, so this was an interesting change. I think that some rest will be helpful (and have been told as much also), but there was still a pleasant creaminess throughout this smoke. Also a bit on the mild/med side, but nice draw and burn after it warmed up.

ROTT and could have used some aging.

Agreed. I had one ROTT the other day and immediately stashed the rest of the 5 pack in my aging humidorQuote:

Soooo, down goes the other single I just purchased. See you in 2021! lol.
Yes, @cheaphumidors , the one I had been passing over in my humidor for 3+ years and recently finally smoked blew away my low expectations with a nice medium-plus body and notes of cream.
Been saving this for a good occasion. My first '26. Just got a new job working for a larger city. This cigar is simply blissful. Happy Friday!

Super Ligero Lancero to end the night. This is the first I've smoked out of the box I bought for absurdly cheap ($40!) on CBid about two months ago. It's good. Another 6 months will make it great.
