Agreed! I received five of them in one of those DE specials and was impressed with them....

L'Atelier ER15 I grabbed in the New Year's pass. Great smoke for the last day of my little golf getaway

Oliva O Robusto. I always think I will not like these when I first start them, but end up loving them.
Smoked to get pumped before a Residents show.
For the first time in 2wks, the opportunity to smoke met with the desire to. AB Nica Puro toro
Got some decent weather and I had the opportunity to get a bit of Game of Thrones fix:

Happy Warped Wednesday [emoji41]
I've only had the natural, but those cigars are damn good, and they're not cheap. They're inexpensive.... ;)

Im not sure if I like this or not. I've been spoiled by dark, earthy cigars.

Perdomo 20th ...it surprised me when this was the free cigar when you buy 4.

El Centurion H-2K-CT Premium Blend...5.5x48. That is what I read from the two bands on this Box Pressed cigar from Don Pepin Garcia.
Once lit it burned effortlessly for an impressive two hours with no need for a touch-up let alone a relight.
Tho it has been some time since I last smoked an El Centurion this one lets you know that it is really a new blend, one that it's a pleasure to smoke.

Thanks WNYTONY for sending me one I've been wanting to try.
La Gloria Cubana Series N JSB and a Frostbite Black IPA
The cigar was from you! I was in such a fluster when I picked it all out it slipped my mind!
My palm sander kicked the bucket in the middle of a project and I was faced with the challenge of buying a new one. Nothing like a cigar and beer to get the decision making gears rolling!
It was a solid stick for sure. I have not had the natural, so I'm not sure how the maduro and natural stack up...
Update:
Somehow Forgot to include the photo in the original post.
Now that it is here, looking at the distortion in the image which makes the foot of the H-2-K look broader than the head...a sort of pyramid shape.
I'm reminded of the way the Box Press did change while smoking, as the cigar warmed up the cigar "softened" somewhat the edges lost some of the sharpness and the cigar felt rounder. Something box pressed smokes tend to do unless they have very sharp sides and' or are loosely rolled,
neither of which was the case with this El Centron h2K connecticut.
Anyone else notice this when smoking box pressed cigars?
With thanks @AlanS
Alan I need to know more about this stick it was fantastic.

That is an AVO Movement TAA. I picked up a box from Small Batch on a great sale and they threw in a box of the Heritage for free.
Finally some nice weather and time to sneak in a stick (Maybe 2) Here's the first (with a Thanks! to Tombstone)

This gem courtesy of @Hardheaded . It had a really interesting cucumber/herbal aroma prelight, so I made a gin & tonic with some Jack Rudy Elderflower Tonic. Yep, that'll do.
Thanks Dustin, this is a great special occasion cigar (birthday was yesterday and this is my celebratory smoke).

San Cristobal Elegancia Corona...5.5x46. A favourite size cigar on a fairly warm afternoon, and that was ninety six minutes well spent, enjoyed with a bit of Rum & Coke. Thanks WNYTONY for this thoroughly excellent cigar.
Awesome smoke
Thanks to @jp1979

Yes, they're actually extruded in Rochester, NY, but Mrs. Bruck, who's from Buffalo, grew up on them. Her family, who lives in Detroit area now, has to grab some whenever they're back in western NY, but we get them locally in NoVA from Wegman's, an upscale grocery store/deli.
Warped Flor Del Valle Las Brumas...4.5x48. Smoking break on front porch bit of peaceful time in the dark, close to a solid hour from this cigar, now tempted to repeat the process since there's not much light pollution on this non windy night, nice watching the stars at this quiet time.
Panacea Corojo 560 from Flatbed Cigar Co. This came in a 5er that were sold as seconds. Can't find a thing wrong with them. Smoke great and taste great.
