I'm on the flip side. Although I smoke Latakia blends year-round, I don't start reaching for the Virginias until the weather turns cooler. Maybe it's just a function of the specific tobaccos that I smoke, but I like lighter tobaccos in warm weather and heavier tobaccos in cold weather.
Yes my friend. You can dress like this in my city all year round. The hottest areas all year round are usually, Alicante province. The length of the day in my city, varies considerably throughout the year. In 2021, the shortest day is December 21, with 9 hours and 39 minutes of natural light; the longest day is June 21, with 14 hours and 41 minutes of natural light.Summers are short, hot, humid, arid, and mostly clear, and winters are long, cool, dry, windy, and partly cloudy. During the course of the year, the temperature generally ranges from 9 ° C to 30 ° C and rarely drops below 6 ° C or rises above 34 ° C. It is a very pleasant winter, compared to the center or north of Spain. The Costa del Sol and Cabo de Gata, in Andalusia, the Canary Islands and the Costa Blanca are destinations where you will find a climate of 'eternal spring' practically all year round, without strong thermal fluctuations.

Is that photo within the week?
And where is it, please.
Please put your location in your Profile, as people are forgetful.
Why:
That will save questions in the future as to where you live when you later mention local stores, weather, tobacco prices, availability, regulations, location of photos, wildfires, air quality, etc. In many instances that saves time for those who read your posts.
How:
Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state. Just country if you must.

Photo is from February here in Pacific NW. Quite a contrast from Southern Spain!
FYI, I added location to my avatar. I'd already had it listed on my 'About' page, but looks like it doesn't automatically carry over from there to avatar field.
Winter is when I tend to smoke more Virginias and VaPers. The reduced humidity and lower air temperatures let the more subtle flavors shine forth IME. Summer is a hot, soupy mess here and cigars come more into play then. I smoke lat and oriental blends year round.
Filling out forms for the Internal Revenue Service? Wait, no...that tends to lead to an early start to the margarita drinking. ?
Well today was cold and damp and in that borderland between Autumnal and Wintery. And I smoked some C&D Mountain Camp and it really hit the spot. Oddly the latakia almost took more of a support role then it had previously. Almost like the cold subdued it just slightly. Nothing dramatic, but the cavendish was more pronounced and the VA was easier to taste what color it was. Or in other words I'll smoke certain blends all year but while I can enjoy them at any time it really does seem like the general atmosphere brings out or tones down certain qualities in certain blends.
I’m easing in right now with some Night Train. Just a smidge of lat, but it’s also still 80F outside.
when I hear night train I always think of the famous cheap hobo wine. It's like a free ticket to the drunk tank in a bottle. I promise if you drink that stuff you will wake up the next day with this horrible sense that you did something wrong. I am imagining you drinking it out of the nice wine glasses and talking about the hints and nuances of formaldehyde and cheap grape candy. With the swishing and nose in glassing and all that....
