What's your latest NC purchase?

[Skypilot]

Not a bad pick up. I like these a lot. Had a Serie V lancero last night and it was a touch harsh. Good but not great. 

[Joeyjojo]

I found a new NC only vendor and after a few emails back and forth I decided to pull the trigger.

I ordered a box of L'Atelier LAT 52.

Unfortunately, the vendor emailed me to say they didn't quite have a full box, so offered replaced the missing two with a LAT 52 maduro and a La Mission.

I went for it, as LATs are really hard to get in my part of the world.

The most surprising part is, when they arrived the date stamp said 2016, so they already had some age on them.

I had one ROTT, and although needed some down time for humidity, was smooth as silk.

Just got a bunch of stuff in to tide me over while I give my habanos a sleep:

La flor dominicana double ligero chisels, 654, and a couple of short fatties (4.6x60)

Oliva V Melanio robustos 

Cain toros and Cain Daytona robustos

pepin Garcia blues, serie JJ, and Cuban classics

CAO Brazilia Gols

various Tatuajue

various RP

probably like  3-4 years worth of cigars for me! Though maybe less once the buddies start coming through to herf for the rest of the summer patio season!

Stocking up on some NC stuff before going on the road for work again in a couple weeks.  Don't normally smoke too many CC's when working on the course. 2x Nat Sherman Timeless Panamericana Epicure boxes to get stashed away.

Awesome Awesome smokes the Casa Cuba's are.  Cinnamon, nutmeg and black cherry for me.  

Any particular size(s) in the line you'd especially recommend?

I enjoy the "Divine Inspiration" (6 1/4 x 47) and the "Doble Cinco" (5 x 50). Cant go wrong with any in my opinion though.

Something new to try for me

I'm really looking forward to this plasencia - heard nothing but good things.

My fiance's friend asked me to pick up some cigars for her husband.  She wants him to stop smoking a "gas station vape" as she called it.  I gladly obliged so took a trip to my local B&M.  A good reason to give them some $ and pick up a few more goodies for myself.  I got him about 12 random singles of all brands and below is what I picked up for myself.  

1x - Tat TAA 2020 box for the long run (They give 20% off with any full box purchase - awesome deal)

3x - Tat TAA 2020 singles that were the last of an open box they had

2x - Tat Cojonu 2012 Havana

2x - Tat Miami 15th Belicoso Fino Claro

2x- Don Carlos No. 2

A few NC to try.. 

[ElLoboLoco]

Sampler of Tabernacle 142 with Connecticut  Maduro Wrapers By Foundation.

Never had a Foundation Cigar I did not love......so let’s GO!

[Happy2BeHere]

Found a screaming deal on my favorite cheap coffee cigar: H Upmann Perlado, so I’ve got 3 5-packs of them on the way. Super underrated daily cigar in my opinion.  Not as screamin’ of a deal, but still some of my favorite NCs, is 2 8-packs from Tres Lindas Cubanas, 8 La Clarita Connecticuts and 8 La Negrita Maduros

Let me know how the short stories are when you get around to them.

 

I've been thinking of picking up a few.

Short stories are magnificent.. unidimensional in flavor ( woody , sweet cedar and slightly spicy) but very enjoyable and relaxing. Strength is at max medium. Great 35 min NC smoke.. highly recommend it!

Thanks so much! Definitely going to pick some up.

With young twins 35 min is almost all my free time in a day!

Decided to explore some Fuentes!

Grabbed a box of lanceros from Herrera Esteli. I'm not sure if the typical blend lends itself well to a lancero or they have tweaked the blend for this edition, but it is a stunner. Recommend giving it a shot

That's because Willy's palate is next level when he's blending

A box of Winston Churchill "The Late Hour", format Churchill and 2 whiskies I am eager to discover : Bimber, a first time for me and Clynelish by Duncan Taylor. I am familiar with Clynelish original bottling but couldn't go past a good deal...

I have been sampling the Archetypes since I can't resist crazy deals (Ventura's parent company is apparently dumping much of their product line--https://www.cigaraficionado.com/article/giannini-out-as-ventura-cigar-co-restructures) and I have been enjoying the Axis Mundi and the Fantasy Oliva maduros.

I recently had the Curses, from their Fantasy line, as well, and I was thoroughly impressed. Given the price, I can't really see any downside

A new Davidoff treat. In the wineador resting another week before burning one.
