Small pour of Bardstown and a RyJ on a beautiful Saturday evening. 
I missed Fuente Friday, but any day is a good day for a Hemingway
Jelly! I need to get my hands on some more Signatures.
Alec Bradley Black Market Illicit Toro (6x50). Freaking awesome

one half of a Toscano Classico tonight. have to go to Winston Salem early tomorrow and will smoke the other half en route.
EP Carillo INCH Nicaragua tonight. First time smoking one of these. 
How was it?
Espinosa Knuckle Sandwich Habano with some pour over coffee to go. Running a little late today. 
It’s nice to see Nat Sherman being kept alive in some form or another.
Aladino Corojo "Santi"
5.5 X 32, Honduran Corojo puro.
I gave these 2 months rest. Very interested in both the unique size as well as the Honduran Corojo tobacco
I clipped one a few weeks ago and found it tight. I sought advice from @pantsBoots and learned 2 things- 1) they're supposed to be kinda tight, and 2) I hadn't given them as much rest as I thought. So, I clipped and draw tested 5, and back into the box they went (68°F, 65RH). Couple weeks later and they are still on the tighter side but perfectly smokeable. It takes longer than we think for tobacco to equalize/stabilize...
Anyway, some nice flavors and even burn. Spices that remind me of pumpkin pie, Chex cereal, earthines that brings to mind real carrots or maybe the store ones that are purple and white in addition to orange. Light richness (!?), a cool smoothness that I can't yet identify. OK I'm gonna stop with all that. But it's real
Bottom line = like.
Coming up on 55 minutes. Glad I've got 9 more

It was ok but not great. This particular cigar had a slightly tight draw, more sweet than anything else, pepper was there in a very minor way.
Never had a Punch before. Picked this one up from a local liquor store that has a decent selection of cigars. I like Corojo so I thought I’d give it a shot. First impressions are pretty good. The blue dog and I are doing some exploring whilst I smoke it. 
Sweet Jane Dia De Los Muertos.
...sweetened cap, vanilla infusion. I like it more than most Aromatic pipe tobacco I've had.
