Final cigar of 2018 is... 5 Vegas Gold (Connecticut). You weren't expecting anything classy from me, were you? :)
Monday 31 Dec Afternoon smoke. Cruzado...7x47. Smoked this cigar courtesy of a Bomb from Cardinal on this rainy last day of 2018.
Did not check but think this was really a 48 ring gauge, nice even burn, no touch-up or relight needed. Didn't pick up on a lot of flavour changes, but never do any way, may notice some but very rarely can I put a name to a flavour...anyway a nice long burning cigar, thanks much Tim for sending this my way.
Burn time, One hour and Thirty One Minutes.

Happy New Year indeed.
Not actually the first smoke of the New Year, this is the first cigar enjoyed post Sunrise today 01 January 2019. One of my favourites from the Master B...Blender...what did you think I meant? Your know a Cigarbum would never express any other than admiration for Don Pepin Garcia or of a My Fathers cigar.
Quite decent weather today, hopefully Spring will arrive on the morrow. That would be more welcome than a Marrowbone.
Or a box Pressed (square) Marleybone Corona smoked at Marble Arch on a bright Morning accompanied by a few pints of Bitter.
Burn time: One Hour and Eleven Minutes.

That recent @Ciro sighting reminded me that I still had one of these beauties that he sent to me. Thanks you Jersey Bum.

Decided to have a 2fer for the first smoke(s) of the year.
First

Tried this newer version of Kudzu with my black IPA. Mmmm!
https://i.postimg.cc/yxbw34sD/122788...-BAB880941.jpg
The black IPA, a bit early, had a noticeable amount of roast, which it wasn’t supposed to have (and finally melded away). Tried it with a Nica Libre, and the smoke didn’t detract from the hoppiness. Nice!

And also smoked another Moncada cigar from the port in Honduras. An excellent smoke and highly recommended if you happen in there.

Wednesday Evening. Vegas Cubana Corona...5.5x44. Becoming rather fond of spending time with these cigars. And smoking them as well.
The Sisurat of cigars, nice size and personality. Twenty Two Minutes so far and all's well.

Warped Serie Gran Reserva 1988 courtesy of @dinoa2 Great cigar Jerry. First of these and if I had known you were sitting on them I'd have tried a little harder in Fantasy Football :poke: Thanks for the great smoke bro !

you know you are welcome and thanks for the review, I have not smoked one yet but will try to get some more now. Figure I will owe you something if we get into March Madness tournament or somethingQuote:

Thursday Afternoon. Esteban Carreras Mr. Brownstone Churchill...7x49. First of these with the Habano (Natural) wrapper at this size. Enjoyed smoking smaller sizes in the past and think they're blended, constructed well so the smoking experience is much the same, the larger size just makes for a longer smoke. For me both the Maduro and the Habano wrappers deliver. No pix, yet.
Burn time: Two Hours and Forty One Minutes.
Edit ~ update.
Heres the pix of the Churchill (Habano wrapper)...

I am really liking these a lot!

Burn time: An Hour and Eight Minutes.

Friday Afternoon. Just finished smoking this cutie from Don Pepin's stable of delights. Vegas Cubanas Corona...5.5x44. Cigar's as I'm working on my fourth cup of hot coffee right now. Wakefullness way overrated in this year of the Snowflake and fruity fones.
Burn time' One Hour and Fifteen Minutes.

Almost started to smoke a Pinar Del Rio cheapie on the way home from the hyena circus, BUT
then I remembered I drove Mrs. Bruck's car in as she needed the truck to pick up some cabinets and other sundries for our kitchen project, and Mrs. Bruck doesn't like cigar smoke in her car. Dang.
So I saved it and just tried to smoke it here on the back deck enjoying a rare silent evening with the neighbor's yappy dog not yapping.
But it fell apart and leaked, so I tossed it into the ivy in the back yard. Let the deer have a chew on it.
& I got a Graycliff Original Red out of humidor #4, handmade by the late father of a friend.
Enjoying it immensely :)
Update: no sooner did I hit enter than the yappy dog started up :(
That "DEEP" V-cut of the Colibri!!!!
1st smoke in a little while. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a936d6e687.jpg
