What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

Caldwell Cigars Eastern Standard Midnight Express
Espinosa Chefs Special Knucle Sandwich24. 
I’m not Catholic but I did penance for not listening to a work meeting by smoking a Harvester Connecticut Magnum during that meeting.
To be fair, I knew what I was getting into. I bought 2 samplers last fall, each with one of these. The first wasn’t the worst cigar I’ve ever had: pleasant enough, and the end slowly unraveled until it looked like a trick cigar in a cartoon.
This one was bitter all the way through the first half, at which point I gave it up for an Undercrown Shade cigarillo just to get the taste out. The Harvester cost me $2, and costs about that much in bundles. Even at the $2 mark, it wasn’t worth the cost.

Having for the first time a La Aroma de Cuba Classic Robusto.
Hmm is this the taste of Cuba, what do you think? I read somewhere that the La Aroma de Cuba are suppose to be Cuban like… hmm
It seems quite nice starting out, for an inexpensive cigar.
Be well everyone!

From the last cab I bought dated Feb 20 so these are coming up on 5 years. Por Larranaga Petit Corona. I've had about five so far and I think I'll leave them for a little bit longer. Cabs go for around 600 US nowadays.
I smoked a Gurkha Coffee Tobak(sp?) but I forgot to snap a photo. Good, but far from great. The Drew Estate line must have me spoiled. This one still had a lingering coffee note but there was an odd incense that I didn't think fit the palette.

This and the Mi Amor are both very good, but I like the Connecticut most. I hope you’ve enjoyed this one!
Oh, I’m an ultra slooooow smoker! LOL
I’m still ‘Enjoying’ at the present tense! LOL
I should still be on it for a few days…

That’s a damm good reason why I do this, and I also I can’t handle the constant puffing, I seriously also need to give my mouth a break.
So I only take a few puffs here and there through out the day.
And it’s nice to carry it around gently sucking on it, I find enjoyable with it throughout the day when not puffing on it. Like a man should be able to carry around a cigar all day. LOL

Of course smoke it too…
