    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Following the Chogui Dos 77 in terms to finally trying cigars that were hype 5 years ago, Serino Wayfarer 109 with some nitro cold brew

    Burley Recommendation

    I love the C&D Burleys, but they just don't have much sweetness. I'd recommend MacBaren's HH Burley Flake, Solani Aged Burley Flake and Watch City Slices. All of these offer a bit of sweetness, likely added, but are still primarily about the burley leaf itself. That said, the more I smoked C&D...

    ***What Are You Smoking, April 2023?***

    Went to the local B&M hoping to snag a tin of the new GLP, Geomtrie, but they didn't have any. They did have Bankside though, and I hadn't tried that one either so grabbed a tin. Smoking some now in an Ashton Pebble Grain billiard. I think this is a pretty special tobacco, and I am really...

    I am literally a claims adjuster for an auto insurer so I should know better, but like I tell the people that call in, there's nothing stupid you've done in a car that I haven't lol

    Tatuaje Lomo de Cerdo from the CRA pack with some Kenyan coffee.

    Ashton VSG Torpedo. Same thoughts asI usually have with these cigars.... the Fuente Rosado Sungrowns are here and cheaper.

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Alec Bradley Double Broadleaf with some Kenyan coffee? Did I buy the $150 CRA Sampler from Smoking Pipes just to satify my years long curiousity about the Padron Black Label? Yeah, kinda, but there are some other good ones in there, too, and some special vitolas of some regular production cigars...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Agreed. There's just something so badass about a cigar that comes packaged with nothing on it. It is an invisible to judge it straight up on its merits. On the other side of the spectrum, this new non-Cuban Verdon of Los Statos de Luxe in smoking has a band, and then a wrapping of white tissue...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    How are those? Been curious about them on the Page.... certainly an attractive looking cigar. Illusione Fume D'Amour. One of my all time favorite cigars but not in this Toro Gordo size.

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Do you mind me asking where you grabbed that? I've been looking to try some Casa Turrent cigars... thought I'd be able to find them in Mexico but so far only Habanos and Te Amos. I believe they have a lounge in Mexico City so hopefully I'll check it out when I'm there next month. Now smoking a...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Crowned Heads Four Kicks Capa Especial lancero. Really nice... The Capa Especiales are considerably better than the regular Four Kicks, imo. The Crowned Heads guys probably should have trusted Ernesto Perez Carrillo and gone with his choice in the first place... of course, then they wouldn't be...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Now smoking a LCA Fireworks. Spelt inspired by the Wes Anderson movie Bottle Rocket, which is a hell of a weird thing for a cigar to be inspired by. Anyway, Wes Anderson movies are hit and miss for me, but if they do one inspired by The Royal Tenenbaums, I vote they name it "Coltrane" from the...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Smoking a Davidoff Dominicana 2014 that was recommended by a guy at my local shop after expressing my general lack of enthusiasm for most of the Davidoffs I've tried... Lie most Davidoffs, it is well made and attractive and burns very well. Like most Davidpffs in my experience, it is crying out...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Now smoking a Viaje Honey and Hand Grenades maduro. This boy about as Maduro as that Partagas Maduro I had a month or so ago. I see why Viaje covered up 80% of this cigar with foil... If course, that Partagas ended up being surprisingly delicious, so who knows...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Nah, the Nuevitas are Nicaraguan Corojo wrappers, I think. I was never a huge fan of San Andres wrappers, but I don't know if my tastes change or the quality of leaf has been improved, but I've been enjoying it more the past year or so. The Tatuaje Mexican Experience II and Avion Tuxtla are...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Have you had the Nuevitas? Another (fairly) recent Tatuaje with a Nicaraguan wrapper. Now smoking a Wise Man maduro with a cup of coffee
