My last queen corona 😕

A well constructed Dip 2 from a 2020 box. Toothy little bugger.

Continuing the 54-55 RG theme before my 55th birthday.Happy weekend and Dragon Boat Festival FOH!!!!

C&C time on this beautiful Sunday morning.

San Cristóbal de la Habana El Príncipe (BRM OCT22). A wonderful weekend to you all.

Du Deputé, last one from a great box (OMS FEB 16). At nine years in, still smoking vibrant, almost fresh. These got legs for the long run.

Partagas Corona. ECA MAR 02.

Super delicious.

‘03 Hoyo Piramides EL - Lately I’ve been digging deep through my boxes looking for gems from many years ago. I had forgotten these for a long time. It’s been years since I smoked one. The better EL’s smoked great fresh including these beautiful cigars. Cocoa, espresso, mocha goodness. Another that hasn’t seemed to change even after more than 20 years. Wild.

Highly recommend the new 'The Count of Monte Cristo' (French version). And @Li Bai said French film is dead.... 😃

Trinidad Reyes FEB24 -- Wasn't blown away by this although it was a fine smoke, might need to wait a bit longer to try again. I'd love to try the Coloniales and the Media Luna next.

Watching the State of Origin 1 night stick.

Wow, found a box of these in the storage bins. Smoking a dream now. I know I’m in the minority because I enjoy RyJ and an EL on top. Horror! 😁 I’m really enjoying this one. No flaws.

Cigar 2- Not the best flavor profile. Very light, below medium, and no flavor, maybe a wooden pin. Stayed this way till the halfway point, then pitched it. Great looking wrapper though!!! Had high hopes, didn’t deliver.Not much to go off of here. Reminds me of a bad box of ryj short from 2018. guess: ryj short Churchill

As long as the distilleries in Scotland keep cranking out aged barrels of single malt, I'm a happy camper!

That's how it happened in the US. Growing up everyone smoked. Then they started banning them in bars and other public places. I was shocked about the bars since it was adults only and was mad about it. But ultimately, smoking became more annoying with all the barriers and I just quit. Now, virtually no one smokes cigarettes. I can see France wanting to end their smoking culture.

Its been a journey and a half but the little Fab 5 factory crew is rolling out some great cigars. Hamlet is over the moon with taste and quality. I will post up on FOH when everything is in the US available for shipping. It will be a few weeks away (need some clarification on Tariff situation after yesterdays ruling) but everything from the the new Sovereign Sun Half Corona to the Churchills, Fat Fundy, Piramides, Robusto Trinity will be there. The future is looking bright

Trinidad Coloniales Badminton and 顺德鱼 (Shunde Yu) with the squad - Southern China's take on sashimi.

Foundation Cigar Co. Foundation Highclere Castle Edwardian Petite Corona (+): A great sized petite corona. Pre-light aroma reminds me of paper grocery bags and the cold draw has the faintest note of the smell of powdery bubble gum. After lighting, the cigar opens witha mild body and the core flavor is just smooth, mild tobacco. There really isn't much flavor on the palate. The only notable flavor is on the retrohale and it is a slight cooling sensation. This cigar is very close to smoking nothing. Great construction, and not "bad" in any way, but there is nothing here for me.

2011 Fundadores Finally a warm day in Toronto .

I am in Geneva right now, they are living in another world. Everything is abundantly available.

Come to the Shangri-La in Penang and tell the barman you like a cigar. He will prepare you a private beach front table with ac and off you go…

Bolívar Petit Corona (UBL SEP23).

My dog “Mr Savvy” is 16 years old. He has a lot of problems and many medical bills, but he is still kicking ! I know what you’re going through.

Guess who we are taking home!!!!! A week or two until pathology comes back. All smiles from our little family ❤️

There'll only be one box. So be prepared to fight for it!

Hope your pup is recovering from this, they do make the world a better place to live. This is our Golden Retriever, Libby. Libby survived Parvo as a puppy and I don’t think she ever learned how to sit like a dog. She went straight to looking like someone’s Grandma. She knows she isn’t supposed to be in my daughter’s bed. One of my employees told me today, “You have a homeless person in a dog suit living in your house mooching food from you!”

So sorry to hear this. Best wishes to you guys. My friend’s dog actually went through an almost identical situation two months ago. Their pup is on the mend now and ended up being cancer free. Hoping for the same for Carolina. Prayers from us and our seniors 🙏

Hey at least we now know why there’s so little fuel for farmers - private jets can’t fly on revolutionary spirit alone! They should be getting back up to 300,000 of their nationals from the US in the coming years. Sad to think that it’ll be a struggle to even keep them fed.

Pres I recently moved. Killer time zone situation. Dying for Luis 50 cabs 😉
