That’s sweet looking

Details in case others are interested with the cold weather coming:

Veito Blade 1500W (black, but also available in silver) and stand.

https://veito.ca/product/veito-blade-1500w-heater-black/

https://veito.ca/product/heater-stand/

It's useful, but from where I'm sitting (2m-6ft away) it's maybe a 5C/10F amount more heat than ambient. If you get 1-2 feet away then it is pretty warm.

I got it from amazon.ca since it was free shipping vs manufacturers website which was same price but pay shipping.

Trinidad Media Luna BSM Nov 2019

The Trinidad Media Luna is a Marinas size with a 50 ring gauge x 115mm (or 4½ inch) length. "Media Luna" is the name of the Hostel with an important architectonic value located in the street of the same name in the city of Trinidad.

My previous two Trinidad Media Lunas from this box code have been outstanding 90 to 95 point cigars so I figured I would try another today to see how they were coming along.

This Media Luna had distinctive rich butter pastry, coffee and wood flavours but was light on dough and a little more salty, at times, than my previous Media Lunas I've had this year. Again, I had to savour it and smoke it slow; this was not a cigar to rush in any way.  

In summary, I still thought this was a fine cigar but not outstanding like my previous two Media Lunas. On a 100-point scale I'd still rate this cigar today as 88 to 89 points.

Romeo y Julieta Exhibicion No.4 ABO Ago 2018

This has been my third cigar from this box in the last few weeks and today's Romeo y Julieta Exhibicion No.4 continues a trend of being dependable and satisfying for me, thus far.

The draw the time was perfect and flavours were again consistent with the RyJ marca; anise, rosewater, sour cherry, oat biscuit and toasted tobacco. As I mentioned before, the main difference with other quality Romeo y Julieta cigars I've had in the past few years such as the RyJ Churchills and Capuletos 2016 Limited Edition is that the Exhibicion No.4 doesn't tend to have strong notes of cocoa like those other aforementioned cigars.

Overall, this was very, very good. I wouldn't hesitate to have another from this box in the next week or two.

Nice way to end a good day at the (home) office. Young Corona Especiales (SOP JUN 20) and my good friend Heady Topper.

Cracked a new box of GAO SEP 15 RA CA. Off to a good start.



LGR JUL 18 Punch 48. Good flavors despite not great construction. What’s up with the Dodgers, they need to start scoring some runs.

Hoyo Epi 2 UBR Abr 19

[NicPac]

One of my favs after a long day. 

[GVan]

Awfully smooth even though it's ROTT ! RyJ MF (ELU MAR-14).

[Bijan]

Just missed the zoom. But weather is still nice.

BEL ENE 20 HdM Rio Seco. Some of the serie le hoyo DNA but I've only had the du depute and du maire from the originals. Wasn't smoking Hoyo until after the others got discontinued.

Pleasant gingerbread, mint and not just the wood of young du depute and du maire. Definitely some other flavours too but I'm too busy enjoying to do a full review 🙂

Light enough that I'm not clobbered by a 56 RG but still flavourful. 12mm punch so it's still comfortable.

Dic 19, first one of the box I thought I’d try tonight while on Zoom.  One of the better Epi 1s I’ve had in a long while.  First 3/4 inch was “meh” as you’d expect for so young, then it just started exploding with flavors.  Little hot/menthol at the very end but again its forgiven for its immaturity.  Very enjoyable, great potential in this box, a nice surprise.  Good smoke and good conversation tonight.  Cheers

Couldn't resist testing the Montecristo Especial #2 that arrived from our host yesterday on my doorstep. Such an elegant and enjoyable format! Taste-wise the monte flavors where quite subdued/muted. Still, no harshnes or bitterness, but so far also very little monte-esque flavors 😑

Hopefully this will all change with a decent rest......🤞
