The young BBFs I have had so far are solid. There has been quite a few offerings here on 24:24 and in the store. All consistently delicious. I think some boxes recently on this EOFY cycle too, at stupid pricing. The ‘14 MC#2 have been good so far with normal construction issues.

This thread looks like a Iron Chef cook off! I’m actually getting hungry... I have never been a breakfast guy. I’m with @Fuzz on this one. It’s usually Black coffee pour over and as of late, a CC. Thanks for all the pics and recipes.

MC#4 REG MAY 18. PSP off 24:24. This was hard like a tent post. After cap cut it was doable but PD tool saved another day. Thick viscous chocolaty smoke. Good morning FOH.

Correct on Coke. I think they have outlawed Pepsi in Atlanta. Or Sherman raized the factory during his march to the sea in 1864. I read it on the interwebs...

Damn that’s a shame. Connie A’s ain’t exactly cheap. I think that’s what El Presidente refers to as a condom.

Excellent!

Nice Fish! Is that a King? Thanks for review!

Now we talking! I’m looking for a straight up rye. One reason I like the grain, it’s a bit nasty. Haven’t tried Redemption yet.

There is something about a good Burgundy that’s sublime. The nose on this young SLB is stunning for a $40 bottle. Cherries, Strawberries, underbrush, game meats, herbs. This ain’t your sisters Pinot Noir.

Punch Punch reviewed this morning. A really good smoke. Cheers

6/23/19 Punch Punch A/T REG SEP 18 Beverage: Spindrift sparkling water with a squeeze of orange and mango essence. Cut Toast Light. Construction a bit lose on draw. Wrapper silky. Cold wrapper aroma: Earthy hay and barnyard sweetness 1/3: toasted tobacco and woody earthy notes on thick mild to Medium smoke. Draw is loose and might be under filled a bit. A touch of cream on the finish with very light pepper. It’s burning a bit fast for this ring gage. A slight correction on the wrapper and things seem to settle down. This third is really enjoyable. I de-tubed this a couple of weeks ago and dry boxed it. The subtle toasty wood and tobacco notes are very nice in this example. Ash a bit flaky and falls at an inch. 2/3: my expectations of harshness on this construction are not manifested at all. Although I am not perceiving any changes in profile, I am really liking the Punch. This weight still remains under medium at half time which is not what I expected. This being my first Punch marca EVER. “Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar You're gonna go far, you're gonna fly high, You're never gonna die ,You're gonna make it if you try, They're gonna love you...” , yep it was just playing in my head so I shared. The wood starts to dominate with earthy notes into end of this third. Light touch ups on wrapper as not to get real wonky. Getting to medium weight now. Volume of smoke is exceptional. No effort on draw. Single hits. 3/3: smoking it slow now. I’m getting some vegetal notes similar to grass or hay, not sour twang but more on the retro Hale. The finish is quite good with almost no spiciness allowing these subtle flavors to shine. Smoked into the band. A hint of youthful sour bitters at the end. At 9 months this is a solid 91. The flavors are very enjoyable and that’s what it’s all about. I did have to tend to the burn a bit but it never had any harsh affect on the smoke. I look forward to the couple I have left. Cheers

Big medicine for jet lag. BFF PSP. 10 hrs of airports and all is forgiven on my front patio. The dark silence makes this meditation complete. End of safe day. A damn fine smoke. Cheers

Damn, you beat me to it. The messiah Cab is still in the parcel locker! On the road. I get to meet them Monday....

Coke Zero?

Cordova Cigars Pensacola, FL. I like this place. Outdoor patio, humidity, crickets, and a perfect construction of Upmann madness. I think this is a Royal Robustos LCDH. Smokes like a dream. A 2018 single out of store. A good work week here on the road. McGuires Irish Pub was Ridiculous as usual. Best steak house in PNS. Even Ken would approve of the wine list. Tonight it was a 2015 CDP. Excellent. Cheers
