I had a G2 as well last night that was bombed! I really enjoyed it, had a nice flavor to it. This morning I had a Gurkha Status. I've had it for a year or so and while I remember the last one I had being very mild this one was no exception. It had some nice woody flavors but that was about it. I know these are suppose to be a cheaper version of the beauty but their taste doesn't even come close to a beauty. Though the glass tube looks really nice.
Enjoyed that Short Story so much yesterday, I lit up a Signature today. The burn was a little wonky at first, but it evened up. Great flavor. I'd forgotten just how much I like Hemingways.
I thought I'd have another something, but it's getting chilly pretty fast, and it's still very damp from last night/this morning's downpours. Think I may be done for the day.
Started off my day with a Padilla Habano churchill, very nice cigar and lasted over 2 hours. In the evening I had a Tatuaje Black tubo, finally I got one without terrible burn issues, it needed a couple touch-ups now and again, but burned ok on its own, with the better burn, which I attribute to the cigars getting the rest they need, came a better experience flavor wise, which I also attribute to the needed rest period...suffice to say I really like this cigar now that it has rested for several months and I think they're only going to get better.
lit up a Man O War Special Edition tonight. pretty damn good. I would describe it as a Man O War but with the volume turned up. Not quite a Ruination but damn good.
along with the fonseca serie f robusto I also smoked a CCom Cameroon Label, the punch busted the cap and unraveled a bit so there were bits of tobacco on my tongue almost every draw.. flavors were still good though and the smoke output was awesome
Last night it was a 5 Vegas A. Really, really enjoyed that stick. So far every 5 Vegas I have had has been constructed great, put off a ton of rich thick smoke, and had no burn issues.
Got to enjoy an Upmann Connoisseur 2001 and Gurkha Signature Gold over the weekend at a friends house after he BBQ'd.
Probably won't get much of a chance for anything other than a Pronto before the weekend, which should provide some quality stogie time with my soon-to-be-father-in-law who's visiting for Easter.
Finally got my humi's up and running but havent smoked much since ive been back. Had a 5 Vegas Classic which always hits the spot, a LHC Oscuro Fuerte which was ok...i was really hoping id love them since the price is nice. And just got done with a CAO America, awesome smoke which is easily in my top 5.

IT SF Maduro Belicoso, 5 Vegas "A", IT SF Maduro Toro, MOW Robusto.
Finally stopped raining, and so I smoked a Red Label tonight, with strange results, posted about it in the reviews section.
Sweet God it was good.
