Today's Smoke 2025

San Cristobal Monumento. I don't think I've had one of these since trying one when they were first released! As can be the case with Churchills, IMO and IME, the first third was a little too mild, but at about the halfway point now it's picking up nicely.

Those were pretty good. I'll have to grab some more of those. 👍
 
Tabacos Baez (My Father short filler) Corona from Secret Santa. Good flavor, but at the start of the final third it began canoeing really badly and went out several times so I gave up.

Might be the worst cigar I've had in a long time. Flavor sucked, draw was difficult, smoke production was minimal. Tossed it after 30 minutes and picked something else to salvage the evening.
Southern Draw Kudzu Lustrum
Muuuuch better!

I had the same experience with that cigar.
 
A couple blurry pictures of tonight's sticks. Both are right in my wheelhouse. Foundation Aksum and a Black Label Bishops Blend. Okay, only one image, doh.
