Last night I enjoyed my first cigar(s) of 2026. (I’d intended on just one )

Up to now, I’ve bought into -- and enjoyed -- starting and ending each year with one of the latest “year of” releases from Davidoff.  For 2026, that’s the “Year of the Horse” (of course, of course )

This Davidoff is big to me (55 RG) — same goes for its oversized pricing.  

I will say, the Year of the Horse had just an incredibly good start. Especially for such a new cigar, the opening was really something — complex and enjoyable, cocoa nibs, cedar and spices.  

But, after a while, it got kinda “samey” and boring. So much so, I was compelled to add another set of flavors: a little JL petite corona (MPE Abr 2010). Enjoying the two together brought the much-missing twang and I still occasionally turned back to the Davidoff’s singular complexity.

They went well together!  But I think I’m done chasing Davidoff’s new “Year of” cigars…as they keep getting bigger in size and price. Last night’s experience highlighted the wonders of a“little old” over a “lotta” new.  

A horse is a horse.  

Thank goodness for little old CCs.

I have to ask, what is that in the background @X-Man? A Partagas humidor?

Yes. It stores about 80-120 sticks.

MOFOH Trinity Robusto.

I have a few that I think are from different batches. Some lean sweet (almost too sweet for me) and some lean less sweet and are a ringer to an H Upmann Connossieur A.

This one is truly spectacular.
