Look at that little gentleman! Hope he's alright. ?
Sending good smokey vibes to the kitten.
Smoked the last of my davidoff yamasa’s tonight (gave a bunch out from my box to friends). Torpedos are good but my flavor are robusto’s for some reason. Ordered another box for myself for my private stock. 
enjoying this Oliva Connecticut Reserve Petite Corona after yet another shitty day at the lab.
Joya Black robusto. Decided to give it a try after seeing a bunch of high ratings. So far, it's very standard Mexican over Nicaraguan flavors with a snug draw and not much smoke production.
Last night it was a corona-ish sized La Imperiosa. Great deep, rich, earthy, chocolate & coffee flavors and a perfect burn but DAMN, almost every Crowned Heads cigar I've ever smoked has been rolled so tight that it's barely smokable. The flavors have always been great, the burn has always been perfect, but that draw. Ugh.
Bayamo On Porch this morning, cheap but good.
Thanks for the well wishes guys, picked up the little guy this morning. He has a fever from some type of infection, but he's on antibiotics and should be making a full recovery.
The Prensado picked up very nicely, with some roasted coffee vibes kicking in before the 2/3. I ended up nubbing it.

Oliva V torpedo with a side of Old Grand-Dad Bonded.
Mi Querida Ancho Corto, which seems to be a robusto size. All I can say is MY GOD. You'd better like Nicaraguan powerhouses and you'd better eat a good meal before hand. This thing was next level. Deep, DARK, rich, dank, earth, black, concentrated, espresso, bakers chocolate, and a hint of nutmeg. The retrohale is black pepper on 11 and a violent red pepper. Feels like I snorted a habenero. Whew! Really delicious, although I could never smoke these on a daily basis, but what a great occasional treat cigar. The ONLY flaw was a giant, gnarly vein in the wrapper that created a small burn issue at about the half way point, but a quick correction fixed that. This thing exceeded the hype.
Trinidad La Trova. This one was excellent, but the first I've had from the box (10th out of 12) that could stand with a Reyes in terms of flavor. 
San Cristobal Clasico. Liked it a lot, flawless construction, but lost some of its sweetness in the final 1/3. Would definitely smoke another.
Alec Bradley Tempus Natural. Working my way through this Alec Bradley sampler. I'm getting Toasted almonds and coffee on this one so far.
Really digging these RP Flor de San Andres box cigs, at least the Mexican wrapper. They're becoming a favorite of mine.
The last Siglo IV, actually my last Cohiba. And this is how I'm starting a 3 day weekend. GEO AGO 14.
Partagas Lusitania. My favorite double corona.
