Well that LFD didn't turn out too well. I'll be honest I've smoked through about 6 since November and none have wowed me. Today's started magnificently, but pretty quickly devolved into a muddled mess flavor- wise. For my last 3 I think I'll be drying them down even further than the 62RH I had this one at for months...

Anyway, here's a Rare Pink Short that's doing what it should, coming into the 2nd third now

Finishing up an Amazon Basin Dagger. Cooling off this evening. Think I’m about to break out a pipe as well. View attachment 412319
What does cooling off mean to you in OK?

Nice picture, as always

We are too here, going from humid highs in the mid 80's down to highs in the 70s, lows in 50s. I've been smoking outside knowing I've maybe got 2 months before garage time... it's not ideal but it gets me through

Much like my Maduro SRs, this one is loosey-goosey despite months in a higher (67RH) box. Smoking more assertively than usual, it's doing pretty good and will still be 1+ hours.

@tbradsim1 sorry to hear yours wasn't great. I tend to keep mine at least 3 months (this one has 6), but then I too wouldn't call this great. Good, sure

Did you find yours to be a bit loose?

We went from daytime 100’s and night time 80’s to daytime 90’s and night time low 70’s. I’m looking forward to next week. Highs will be in the 70’s😁. I’m built for colder weather….I haven’t been able to talk the wife into moving yet though.
