[SpecialK]

Got this from our Generous Host this past March and he was right.. they are amazing right away... I can' t imagine how good they will be with age on them.

Drink: Jameson Old Fashioned with a splash of Ginger Beer

Cold Draw: Easy Draw with Chocolate and Barnyard

Construction and Burn: Construction wasn't pretty and the Burn turned into a shit show.

Smoke time 1:30

1/3: Notes of powdered chocolate with Fig and hints of Mincemeat pie

2/3 Mincemeat pie with chocolate going away

3/4 Mincemeat pie with a peach aftertaste

Score 3.5/5 due to burn being wonky, and it going out on me...

I really enjoyed this even though the score might not reflect it.. This cigar was dessert and brought me back to memories of my father and his love for Fruit pies. His favorite was mincemeat with the second being peach pies.. He's been gone since 2002 but this took me back to my childhood being in the 77 Toyota Corolla Station wagon going from a little town in SC (Elgin ) driving to Mcbee SC  to pick up crates of peaches that my mother would can and also make pies from..

Picture this:  Hot vinyl seats in a little car with 3 boys forced back there in the heat  driving 45 minutes to Mcbee with the fact that Dad didn't want to run the AC because it wasted gas...  I also remember the fights between my 2 brothers and myself due to the close quarters and the refrains of "your touching me !"  We would also have to use a milk jug in the back for batchroom needs due to the fact that Dad wouldn't stop to let us go the bathroom because we wouldn't make good time...Mom however was the exception. 

.. Memories no telling what can trigger them..

Anyway I have some pictures of my backyard along with a squirrel who was enjoying him or herself in my plum tree along with a selfie as asked for in the contest:
