E. P. Carrillo Black Swan. Ecuador Habano wrapper, MSA binder, Dominican, Nicaraguan and Connecticut Broadleaf filler. A lumpy, splotchy, frankly ugly cigar. Big hole in the wrapper. But, pretty good flavor now that it has six or seven months of rest. Spice, wood, salt, grass, earth.

LFD La Nox petite corona. It's a strong little thing, I keep getting little spots on the wrapper that spit and sizzle, this is a first for me. I don't know if it's oil pockets or what. I'll try to get some video of it happening. Regardless, is a very good cigar. ETA: let's see if this works...

Very cool!

Awesome shot!

Black Works Hyena Lonsdale from the Poor Man's Pass. Cameroon wrapper, Nicaragua for the rest. Cedar and hot cinnamon (atomic fireballs without the sugar), slight sweetness at the finish, strong black pepper retro. Excellent.

Fuente Friday Happy Ending

Caldwell Long Live the King Mad Mofo Belicoso. MSA wrapper, Indonesian binder, and filler from the Dominican, Nicaragua, and Pennsylvania. Rolled at the William Ventura factory in the D.R. Straddles the line between medium to full, I'd say. Strong flavors, with gritty earth and Sumatra funk...

Monte Nicaragua 1935 Anniversary, ROTT, basically. So a little wet. But still pretty good. A few weeks to settle should help.

I've not seen vac packs, but that would be great. Where are they, usually? All I've ever seen are the whole chickens, and they don't last very long when they get set out.

Aging Room Quattro Nicaragua.
