Today was absolutely dreadful at work. We've all had them. Everything goes wrong, even things which have never happened poorly go to sh*t. Today was that day for me. The kind of day where you scream for relief in your head.....at 9:30 am. I knew I'd need a hell of a cigar and a hefty dram of Springbank 18 on getting home, albeit late, as I was the last in the office to head home.
I don't normally buy Cohiba - not that I don't enjoy them, but the price point is always a little high for me, and there is always a discontinued or RE box calling my name over the box of CoLa, siglo 3s and corona especiales that I'd eventually like to pick up. As such, the few Cohibas I have are from trades or gifts from generous BOTLs. When I got home today, I knew a Cohiba was what I needed.
At the Megaherf in Toronto, I somehow won the premium cigar raffle, and am still overwhemled at the generosity of what my BOTL/SOTLs put in, and included in the winnings was a couple Cohiba Siglo VIs. I've only tried one in the past, and didn't much care for it at the time, but I picked one of the two that I won to smoke now, and I tell you - this cigar is almost better than Sex right now. Truly - it hits all the spots, I can feel the awfulness of the day melting away.
Thank you so much to all those who contributed to the raffle, and a special thank you to the mysterious benefactor who submitted this divine Siglo VI.....I am in your debt, good Sir/Madam.
This Siglo VI is magnificent
