Today's Smoke 2025

Padrón 2000 Maduro, cup of Joe and a perfectly quiet morning, not even a whisper of a breeze. The photo is a two axis mobile that was just the original tin and heavily rusted. I wanted to give something back for having my sister put us up, so zi got into this with wire wheels and did the restore best I could.IMG_1752.jpegIMG_1751.jpeg
 
@Pugman1943 I believe you were the person who shamed me into trying a Padron for the FIRST time :oops: And I thank you for it. Bought a box, I need to bring more up from the basement. I should have at least one a week, I think.
 
REC SEP01 RyJ Cazadores - one of my all time favorites. There was a time when I smoked these every week. Less than optimum construction. PerfectDraw to the rescue! Strong dark coffee, cocoa, baking spice. Second third graham cracker & dark rye. Final third salted caramel. Such complex flavors. A truly decadent cigar. These age like a dream.

I picked this up a House of Cigar while visiting Cincinnati, they were running a deal on them. It punched me in the guts a bit. Forgot how full bodied they are.

Tuesday smoke, had to move to a CT wrapper, this one an HC Connecticut double corona. A little too light, actually, I’m gravitating more solidly to the medium or medium/full smokes and avoiding the light and heavy end as I get older. But this was a nice smoke after the last two heavy sticks.
