Another Sancho Panaza, La Gloria Cubana double corona maduro and several work cigars including what might have been my last old label padilla fuma.
Went back outside after dinner and smoked my last (I hope) Frank's Way. tossed it a little past the half way mark.

The first cigar I had today was an H. Upmann 1844 Reserve Natural (Robusto)
Here's the video review I did on it:

Also had a CAO Brazilia today (one of my favorite smokes actually). My review on that can be found HERE:

Started with A Bahia Trinidad short churchill but when I was getting ready to light it I noticed something light blue in the foot- it was a blue thread and I removed it. I wonder what that would have tasted like (cotton, nylon, polyester)? I know what a feather tastes like in the filler (got me to stop smoking Backwoods). Rest of the day was work cigars.
Some work cigars and a couple of VSOP CT toros. Spotted a couple of years old R&J churchill that looked moldy, so I took off the cello and the white spots were on the outer cello only. Smelled great, so I put it back naked in the humi for another day.
Another Bacchus churchill with no strings attached (or thread), then a few crappy work cigars.
Casa Fernandez Miami Reserva, A Turrent Triple Play, Punch Rare Corojo and a few others that I can't remember right now.
Enjoying the latter parts of summer with a smoke
Summer is winding down, but I'm still trying to capitalize on every opportunity to enjoy it.
Today was surprisingly beautiful (hasn't been great here recently) so I lit up an 1876 Reserve.
Simple, but hit the spot.

Feeling lousy yesterday, but managed another Jose Marti and a Diego Ocampo toro.
First smoke free day in quite a while. I wonder how long I can go without a cigar. Would like to get the taste buds back so I can smoke something really good.
Fell off the wagon and had a Cuban Legacy late yesterday afternoon while picking veggies. Strange cigar. The churchill comes in 2 sizes, with one being about 1/2 inch longer than the other. My guess is they are made in different factories for Gurkha, but they do not carry the Gurkha name- only K. Hansotia.
Not a recommended cigar, but not awful either. I've also smoked the robusto version and it is about the same.

Esteban Carrares Chupa Cabra, Man O War Dark Aged Maduro, Gurkha Red Witch Grand XO, and a few more that I can't recall right now.
Started the day with a GAR lux churchill. Decent smoke, but I didn't remember them having a pigtail cap. Smoked a few of them this week.
