 A Cohiba! A year plus after I quit smoking (mostly cigarettes, now over 40 years ago), I was in a tobacconist store in Toronto and I picked out a Cohiba cigar to enjoy. As I waited in line to pay what I thought was an outlandish price of S6.00 Canadian (approx $4.50 US) I decided to not buy the smoke.  That's the last cigar I've had in my hands.

 

The backstory is that I promised myself when I quit smoking that I could smoke a cigar on very special occasions and this was one of them.  I'm happy I made that choice.

I love the color of glaciated lakes. Looks like you are having a great time.

AF Don Carlos Presidente. This cigar has been sitting in a non humidity controlled drawer for 3 months.  Whoopsie, forgot about this one…. 😌. Regardless, it is smoking perfectly.

A gloriously smoky Padron on a beautiful evening.  Yeah, cough your arses off you skeeters.  🤣

I figure I should not limp into the end of this weekend, so decided I should light up this San Cristobal Elegancia to wrap things up properly.

I'd like to nominate the T52 as the best cigar of all time. Excellent Sven!

It is a very good one, pricey though. Right now my best of the best is the Plasencia Alma Fuerte. But it changes week to week, I guess.

Maybe we could add cigars to the “favorite” lists and jargon. I had funny, sarcastic responses to posts ages ago. I can’t remember if it was favorite bourbon or favorite glass first. 😉
 

Favorite Glass?-The one in my hand.

Favorite bourbon?-The one in my glass.

Favorite cigar?-The one I have lit.

With steady rolling and rumbling of thunder in the distance, I’m enjoying this CAO Gold Maduro.  I don’t reach for CAOs much, though not sure why, as I generally like their line.

Thought y’all might like this one. We took a drive a few days ago. This is a little place in Oregon Illinois. 🙂

It seems their store in Oregon Illinois has come under scrutiny for a mural on their building. I don’t see a problem. 🤷🏻‍♂️

An unplanned after dinner nap has produced dividends.  It’s an opportunity to enjoy the late evening with this My Father La Opulencia and Braves on the radio from  San Fran.

Penn Standard.

The leaf  is grown and blended in Lancaster PA, and I believe that it's rolled in Nicaragua.

It's a solid, reasonably priced smoke.
