These need to rest a bit more, but still really good.

An absolute bargain if you shop around. And like you suggest, they age magnificently. Trouble is, they're good to go after a few weeks and I have as of yet to age a box more than a couple years. I need to get on that.

This afternoon, I had this guy. Pretty unique take on the Tatuaje profile, but nothing I'd buy a box of. Glad to have tried it.

Aladino Santi. A dead ringer for the old pre-Davidoff Camacho Corojo. Going to have to buy a couple boxes. At 3 years since purchase, this thing was remarkable - incredibly complex profile and a swift kick o nicotine to boot.

No pic because we're watching a lightning storm roll by. Venus peeking out and fairly hazy above us, but Leoma, Tennessee is getting rained upon hard a few miles down the road.

Last of the tourist cigars. No idea who this is, but it's called The Guardian.
...The same company makes coffee with the same names, so perhaps in my next trip I'll pick up a four-pack of one specific tourist cigar and the corresponding coffee. Probably The General, think MacClellan was my favorite.
Or maybe its just a trick of the mind, since "MacClellan" and "MacClellanD" are so close.PXL_20230517_152508189.jpg
