FOH'ers Daily Smoke

I've been smoking more than usual lately and fear I may be suffering from some palate burnout. Nevertheless, a few sticks from the past few days:

Hdm ep1- 7.5/10, flavor was light and a little lackluster with notes of paper. Construction was pretty good.

Buenaventura BV- 8/10 solid, but I feel it needs some time in the humidor so that the flavors have time to mingle and harmonize. 

Hup PC - 8.5/10 burned well and had a more robust flavor than I anticipated from these PCs. It definitely seems more full bodied than the HUP HCs, CMs, and Regalias that I've tried so far. But Ill need to smoke a few more before passing judgment.

AF Hemmi Short Story - 6.5/10 my wife and I both smoked one from the same box and agreed that this stick tasted harsh and ashy, with significant mineral notes. Construction was fine, especially for such a unique size. The lackluster flavor profile is unusual for these cammi wrapped classics in my experience.

RyJ SC - another well made cc from this 2022 box.d ll definitely performed much better than the RyJ Churchill turbos I smoked a couple weeks ago. I should let these rest longer but it's hard to resist! The flavor in the first half was excellent as well but developed some slight intermittent astringent notes in 2nd half (perhaps due to lack of age?). Admittedly, I had something unexpected pop-up while smoking and the cigar went out for about 30-45 minutes before I was able to come back and finish the smoke.

How was the ERDM? Assuming a Choix Supreme. I've got some maturing now that I am pretending don't exist for a few years. Hoping they'll shine at year 5, but may have to try one soon to see how they are progressing.

A 2016 media corona. This tastes like it has been dropped in chocolate. Delicious with the coffee this morning

Draw was a little tight on this Winnie in the first third but opened up nicely.  From 2014 or 2018,  can’t remember off hand.

Some recent ones + a bonus pic:

A P2 that just kept getting better and better.

A mediocre, pitchable CoRo... ☹️

Huge storm here in Idaho this weekend.  A Cavalier Genève Black Series II Lancero kept me warm during a walk in the snow.

Snow day...

Always good fresh or aged, can’t go wrong

Well, I don’t put much stock in CA’s top 25, but I figured this was an appropriate smoke today.
