[pantsBoots]

They just re-released these and I couldn't help but smoke one after a couple days in the drybox (after weeks in the mail).

Yes, I'm replying to myself. I logged into my Atlantic Cigar account for the first time in years and they have these on silly discount under "Direct Pricing." Inbound. This thing is amazing - maybe I'm a buffoon (I am), but it reminds me of a Dominican Aladino.

LFD rules

They sure do. I have been learning about the company and was surprised that they are from 1996. For whatever reason I had thought they were older...

John brought some cigars from Raices in Harlem for us to smoke. Having a Raices Maduro Torpedo, 6.125" x 52 on the porch.

What a great picture! Makes me want to go stream trout fishing again. It's been years (time constraints have limited my fishing to fall steelhead). Fond memories of a few trips to MT...

Petite Aladino is just what I needed this afternoon

The weather is so nice I'm planning for another something after dinner

If you ever make it out to MT I know some great creeks to fish. How’s the steelhead fishing out there?

Asylum 13! I really like this cigar!

Both 3-4 year old Oliva MB3 and a 5 Vegas AAA

Flor de las Antillas Toro this evening. Lots of woody vanilla notes from this one.

Thank you!

On the North (MN) shore of Superior it's not really my game. Rivers are steep and runs are in the spring. Ice out X flow X water temp come together for a fast and furious season that's quite popular.

On the South (WI) shore the grade is less, and fish come up in the fall and overwinter. I go here and swing flies for 'em.

Some would call them lake-run rainbows which is technically correct but they do chrome up in the lake and are fierce and wild. Any fish is a good fish, most are 20"-26", some are smaller, some go to 30". They are hard to catch

This Mi Querida 448 with 6+ months box time was just great



Pledge Prequel with a couple years on it was pretty good too

2013 Varina Farms Breakfast Blend. Mild but tasty.

Filling some seed trays with perennials. Caldwell Yellow Cake, every cigar Ive had from this company has been poorly constructed. Last time I but Caldwell.

Not a big cigar smoker but am starting to dabble. I just picked this up at a local B&M a few minutes ago. Kinda cool that BenMN shared a pic of the same stick just 3 posts up from this one. This is the No.1 ranked cigar from 2020. Guess it should be a good cigar for a noob who wants to experience what a good cigar tastes like.

RP the Edge Toro with two years age on it. Not bad.

Bummer,

although I guess I'm also glad I didn't buy a bunch of Yellow Cake petites when Smokingpipes recently rolled them out

Welcome!

That is kinda cool. How did you like it?

N.A.S for me tonight

I haven’t smoked it yet. I Also bought a tin of acid krush gold Sumatra. Ended up smoking one of those. I’ll probably fire up the Pledge tonight. As far as the little Krush cigars I’m not a huge fan. The sweetness to me is acceptable but the other spices they’re flavored with were far too overpowering and left a strong aftertaste. It was definitely a strange combo of flavors. But I’ll still smoke them.

Wondering if that N.A.S. Your smoking Is the La Flor. I just read a review yesterday on that one. If I remember correctly the guy said it’s one of the strongest cigars ever created. definitely have that one on my list to try.

It’s 83⁰ F outside, with a light breeze, so surprisingly comfortable. Having a Gran Habano Vintage 2002 Churchill (listed as a 7.0" x 50, but, it’s closer to 46) on the porch.



Wasabi wanted to play, but maybe only for ten seconds.
