A beautiful Boli Beli of unknown date. An absolute smoke monster. Easily the most antisocial cigar I’ve had in a long time. Paired perfectly with an Aktien Landbier Fränkisch Dunkel. Possibly the best combination of cigar and beer I have yet enjoyed.

Working from home today, meaning that I can enjoy a nice cigar while fighting for the rights of my clients. 

It’s a beautiful morning in New England so I grabbed my eight shots of espresso over ice and lit up the last of my 2007 Edmundo Dante Cobde 109s. 

I must say that this is a wonderful cigar! Construction is amazing. Sweet cedar and tobacco with some fruit. Not really in tune with the Montecristo marca, but man, do I wish I had more.

Work at its finest. Until the cigars from Rob acclimatize, I will only smoke cheapies. Today I had a Quintero Panatela and Por Larranaga Panatela(in the picture below, still smoking). Suprisingly, I enjoyed the Quintero more, so far. It was much sweeter...

A small cigar and a BIG coffee.
El Principe TOS JUN 16, absolutely stunning. Fruity and sweet, bitter in the background, biscuity, nutty and just what I bloody well needed. I would like to thank everyone involved in the production, selling and delivery of this cigar from the roller and HSA, through Diana, Rob and the FoH team to the airline and postman (Dave). I will even thank the neighbour's son at No. 116 who is currently practicing his drumming - keep it up lad, you're improving!

An ERDM Choix supreme from 2017, prompted by the video review.

A classy mix of roasted tobacco, roasted coffee & chilli spice.

Probably one of the worst Short Churchills I’ve had. You can’t really tell from the picture but it’s full of big green spots. I’ve had it in my singles box for a couple of years and got curious. Construction wise it was flawless though. Rich thick smoke and razorsharp burn all through to the end.

Three cigar work day.. 1998 LSdL, just mindblowingly good. It has been hit or miss with these in my experience but this was definitely hit the full way. That old school blend of finess, tea like flavors. Then a RASCC from 13 and a first year release of the HUHC tins (2012?). And I think all that goodness actually helped me make some progress!

UAO ENE 18 Talisman, from our host.

It’s from a box that I find to be very special, even compared to other Talismans that I have smoked.  They have very light wrappers by EL standards, and the one I smoked out of the box already, was beautiful in every way.  I put the box at the bottom of the humidor, to only smoke on special occasions, but it’s been a pretty rough week at work, so, what the hell?

Def going to be on the lookout for this box code. Lightest Talisman wrapper I've ever sseen

A beautiful MEG FEB 16 Connie A after a very long day at the office. Wife and kids are up at the cottage so I went on a date with myself and had some swordfish tacos and now this wonderful cigar.

2003 Des Dieux. Godly*. Beautiful white ash throughout. Subtle flavor changes. Woody throughout, hints of vanilla at the halfway mark, sweet and floral to finish.

* = this is not an attempt to discuss religion, I promise. Don't ban me please!

I don't think '03 Des Dieux had a band.  Perhaps more recent?

Yeah, like @Brandon says, these are from the cardboard 5-packs. I've had mixed experiences with buying older cigars in cardboard packaging but the two from this one have been truly fantastic (freed them from their prison as soon as I got them).

'13 BRC and some Elijah Craig Small Batch..

Yes we're live!This is a Jorge Lopez rolled Monsdale from my first trip to Cuba in late February of last year.Not pulled one out for a while if at all since I got them at Club Havana.I recently learnt that Jorge has left Cuba (yes I'm late)-this brings back memories of visiting him and him bounding up those 50 wheels
Hope he's doing well in Chile (?) and his replacement does just as good job rolling with whatever recipe is cooked up!
Shout to Mike Choi my chaperone for two trips, making sure my food and excessive cigar procuring demands were met ??
