Temps in PA are like a roller coaster.

Thoroughly enjoying an Oliva Serie V Nub right now. It's a flavor bomb, more than my senses are currently able to separate. I've picked up spice/pepper, chocolate/coffee, some leather and earthy notes. Incredible. Perfect lightly breezy 68 degree day here in the valley to enjoy it too. Big thanks to the friend that made sure I tried this one!

Having a little pre-election result Monte Cristo. Who all is puffing and waiting?

Im puffing at work,slow day. I will probably ignore the ejection results tonight and celebrate tomorrow night. Or at work if its slow again, plus its about to rain here so i wont be able to enjoy one tonight. Nice selection though, i would like to try the new Espada.

You go to any cigar lounges in the Houston area?

Just the one near me, Serious cigars. Its nice, friendly staff and customers, texans games on every week cowboys too. Not as high priced as some of the other B&Ms around here. They always have an event going on at one of their locations, usually the ones to far for me to make it to, but i plan on making it to one whenever the special guest is worth it. Its usually sponsored by a cigar company. Heres the website, http://www.seriouscigars.com/

Nice, I try to make it to the Man Cave in league city at least once a month. Has a great atmosphere and owned by a retired police officer. Very gun friendly establishment as well.

I'll have to check them out, that would be a weekend thing for me though.

I smoked something a little heavy tonight as I needed to relax. I ended up with a CAO Flathead Sparkplug. Damn good smoke with a punch to it. Not over the top, smack in the face, but definitely no slouch either. Just what my inner doctor recommended!

Torano Exodus 50 year. Celebrating the Ejection results.

The first Gurkha Beauty I had was nothing to brag about but the one I'm smoking now is actually quite good.

BTW Cigars International has free shipping on their "Make Me An Offer"section of the website through Nov 11 with quite a bit to chose from. I got 10 Nub Connecticut 460 for $30 shipped coming my way. Worth checking out and trying a lowball offer or two. Keep an eye on the confirmation emails though. I was charged shipping initially but they corrected it less than 15 minutes after I emailed them about it.

It has been a while! I was able to have a smoke while doing some work outside this afternoon. I enjoyed an aged My Father Special in the white box. This stick has transitioned from a pepper bomb to a smooth, chocolate bar. It has been in my humidor for at least 6 months. I was looking for the pepper but was pleasantly surprised with this.

Had an Indian Tabac Classic Corojo today. Didn't buy it. A friend gave me a few of them. Not bad. Not my favorite. But they get real smooth on the last half. A decent medium flavored smoke.

Taking a break from my usual Rocky Patel habit...

(with classic British protection!)



We will see how good this is in a few minutes!

That is a cool pistol. Let us know how the cigar turns out. Its a Perdomo champagne noir for me tonight. Always a good smoke for me.

TATUAJE pudgy mummy. The mummy is my favorite monster. Great size too.

I smoked a Blend Lab YH-456 and a My Father #2 robusto this evening while sitting at the Sands.

I was trying to find out how to pronounce 'CAO' and found this on a cigar forum. Maybe some of y'all will find it useful. (I don't like to appear dumber than is absolutely necessary. )
