Today's Smoke II

First day I've been able to double up in a long time. Perdomo Lot 23 on the golf course in the AM, and currently closing out the weekend with an Undercrown Viva! and Magic Hat Hex.
 
Parti P1 while I threw some babybacks on the smoker, a San Lotano oval corona before dinner, and a Padron 45th maduro for the night!
 
Bonacquisti Toro. Conceived/blended by Paul Bonacquisti (the pipe maker/tobacco blender and proprietor of the B&M closest to my home), rolled at the Plasenscia factory in Esteli. I was ready to pan this one right off the bat, but at about a third in, it's not half bad. And after the full stick, a pleasant surprise. A nice, full but not too spicy, double ligero stick. Maybe a little pricy at $8 per, but tasty nonetheless.
 
Spent the weekend on the North shore:

Friday
AVO Heritage robo
Undercrown robo
JPL Conservas

Saturday
SLR Rigios
AF Rosado Sungrown R52

Sunday
Monte 2
 
This last weekend my b&m received the new La Duena so I grabbed one and lit it up. The construction and burn were flawless and the smoke production was immense. This stick reminded of a thread from a few months back about one dimensional sticks because it never changed flavors for me but I really enjoyed the one it did provide. It was like a coffee/cappuccino with a nuisance I hadn't yet come across before.

In the end, not really box worthy in my mind but still a really nice, solid cigar.
 
Sitting in the back yard having a AB Black Market Robusto. Decent stick for what I paid, but wouldn't go out and get a box.
