Had a diesel unholy cocktail corona on my way home from the winery. I got a tin of these and although the packaging looks nice the ribbon holding the bundle together was to tight and a few are a bit squished. The one I had tonight had a tear in the wrapper and a splotch of extra tobacco stuck...

10 pack of don pepin cuban classic robusto on cbid for around $4 a stick. A few anejo (46&55) and torano exodus gold from a local b&m. A couple romeo pyramide, and RyJ 1875 star crossed from another b&m about 1/2 a mile from the other one.

I typically have beer or coffee/tea. Just picked up a pound of Nicaraguan sagovia from a local roaster, and it is delicious. Any recommendations for a Nicaraguan puro to pair with it?

A box of anejo will be on my list for next year, I picked up a few this year, might grab a few more tomorrow if any are left.

Was only a few months ago, bought a box of Bahia insignias robusto. I have probably 5 left and have enjoyed everyone I've smoked, handed a few out to friends during our "friendsgiving" party. Didn't hear any exclaims of goodness, nor any complaints, and I feel that sums up the Bahia insignias...

CyB, gurkha blue steel, torano circa '95, gurkha black dragon fury, LFD sauve. Over the past fee days. Easily rate them LFD (would definitely smoke again), CyB (pretty good stick), fury (not bad but very meh), torano (not a fan), blue steel (no, just no)

La flor Dominicana suave tubo. Awesome stick.

had another Bahia Insignias robusto last night before playing some cards (Magic: The Gathering).  That makes 4 so far, and they've all had great open draws, pillowy mounds of smoke, a beautiful ash, and a good even burn.  I picked a box of these up on CI's closeout for about $2 a stick and it...

Had a Bahia insignia 10th anniversary tonight, and a few nights ago as well. Tonight just around a fire, was pretty cold and smoked through it pretty quick. Had the other a few nights ago with the owner of a local card shop. Over the past 6 months I got to be pretty good friends with him...

Used to always use a punch. It was a screw out kind and I had it on my key ring. It'd always screw itself out and it got pretty banged up. Since I started smoking again I've been using a vector double guillotine. V-cut is nice on occasion. Would like to get another key ring punch, but this...

Had a Trinidad paradox with a glenlivet 12 year tonight at Joey D's cigar bar in the basement of the local train station. Always a good experience here.

A box of Bahia insignia and a Gurkha grab bag should be on my doorstep when I get home.

Just finished a Montecristo Monte accompanied by a southern tier double uncommon and a Corsendonk on the patio of my favorite local bar, Headkeeper. Not the least excited about working tomorrow.
