Nice haul

Looking especially forward to your thoughts on the C.L.E. I was just looking at those

You get the 4 X 40 ones?
Yes the 4 x 40. Great size if you're out in the heat. I had the Hebano today it was nice, good retrohale. The sub $5 that's why I got one of each.

Nice, might have to get some

My favorite Garmirians so far have been 4 X 40, what they call a #5. Not sure if that's an old standard or what. Either way it's a great little size

Micallef Migdalia that was not very good :(

Garmirian Soireé Short Robusto that was better

Between storms, air quality alert days, and general busyness, I haven’t had a cigar in several weeks, so I’m observing Fuente Friday early with a Hemingway Best Seller. It’s Friday somewhere.

Nice kickoff. I'm with ya on the weather

I've got an Exquisito and VSG ready for tomorrow. Seems like we haven't had a proper Fuente Friday in a while...

View attachment 405226This one was incredibly strong, got 45 minutes in and had to quit or I would have lost my breakfast. Nice cigar, but I couldn't handle it.
Good to know one's limits!

I got some Joya Antaño Dark Corojo. All the names for the different vitolas are rough synonyms for dangerous.

I got the 4.5 X 52 "Azarosa" which basically means "risky"
