Today's Smoke 2016

Encantos Larry? I have a box, but they haven't come into their own yet.

Agreed, but I had a few that I had damaged in handling, so I felt compelled to smoke them.:eek: Not serious damage but a little foot crack.

I had plug/draw issues with a few. So I just put them away, but I imagine I'll drag one out this Spring to see how they are doing.

Actually both of them I had smoked very well, burned well plenty of smoke and good flavor which intensified as they got down to the end, as they should. Nubbed them both, but I can imagine they might be a bit better with some additional age.
 
Got a Hammer and Sickle Hermitage Box Press lined up...

Have to say, these are still one of my favorite cigars.
 
Reading the site the other day and a machine made was mentioned, so it peaked my interest to revisit a couple.

Belinda Belvederes FR NOSO '90, Toffee/nut flavor in the middle that was quite enjoyable.

Cabanas Belvederes FR NISN '91. Stronger tobacco/coffee flavor that went well with Havana Club Barrel Proof.
 
After a week of 7am Cojonus and Antaños I brought it down a few notches with a Warped Lirio Rojo. Got my first ever Fuente Unnamed Reserve (2015) on deck for after work.
