Another Tatuaje with French inspired branding, and not real subtle about the inspiration, either. I actually think it's kind of rad, if a bit flashy. Cabaiguan 52.

Small holes and small sticks today: a belicoso La Aroma de Cuba Edicion Especial

Archetype Axis Mundi. Watching Warriors-Kings preseason. We got hoops, mane!
Brick House Connecticut Double Corona Larga nice smoke no issues at all.
The gold on the band is new, or is this a new brand addition? I just remembered I bought a single Cabaiguan a couple years ago after not having one since original release. I need to locate it and dig it out, now that I can appreciate a good Connecticut wrapper.

La Gloria Cubana Serie R with some coffee and Dexter Gordon “Dexter Relaxes”, waiting for the storm coming in.
The band is new, and the size is new. This was the 52, but there is also a 54, basically the sizes are aping the Behikes. The guy at my B&M said he thought it was a new blend. I'd only had one Cabaiguan in the past, and this tasted different than the memory I have of the one I tried a few years ago, but who knows. I liked it. Thought it was more fully flavored than what I remember. Wouldn't buy a box, but I think its worthy of grabbing a 5er.
Just started a Macanudo Hyde Park, one of the 10 freebies that came with the cheap ass humidor.
It got this glowing 1 minute review...

? I like those! They benefit from a few weeks in the humidor. They can be bitter and ammonia-tasting if they haven’t gotten a chance to rest, but if they have they are a pretty good mild cigar, with lots of coffee and cream notes and some sweetness. Not the best sticks, but not bad for the price. I think I got 10 of them for less than $2 a piece last time I bought some. I like ‘em in the morning with coffee.
Nothing wrong with a Macanudo if you enjoy milder cigars. It's not one of my favorites, but it's a classic. I did like the Inspirado Orange alright.

10 Nub Sumatra, with Melano wrapper, good review, like the Nubs, hope they live up to their review.
I liked "Nubs." In fact my last box was Rothschilds. I'd been smoking 6 X 52 for several years because. . .that's what everyone else did, and cigar sellers always pushed that size. Took awhile for me to question this. Typically I would adore the first inch, but then my brain went offline, only to return for the final third. I figure out that I preferred a smaller cigar.
