    The mornings are hands down the best time to enjoy a great cigar.

    Sounds interesting, will there be pictures before and after? Haven't had a morning smoke in a while now. Down to my last three. Saving them for my night smoke with the rest of the guys. CAO Gold is always a good starter in the morning....

    Padilla Single Batch and morning coffee (single batch courtesy of drpepperdude). Very nice smoke, enjoyed it a lot.

    I dunno what I'm gonna smoke yet but after a long 7 days straight of nights to total 72 hours, I'm gonna smoke something awesome....lol Looking forward to getting off work, hitting the gym, having breakfast, grabbing my fishing pole, a beer and a smoke to go unwind and relax. I don't even think I'll bait my hook today...

    I had a CAO Gold Maduro this morning! Found a box last night in a container that I had packed up with a 65% Boveda pack and hid 6 months ago! It was like Christmas all over again!

    I'm too far along for any before photos but I'll show an after photo when it's up and running as well as some of the things I'll be making.

    This morning was a MOW Virtue mini salomon, such a fantastic smoke in one of my favorite vitolas.

    Honestly, I don't find it to be that strong of a cigar. It really comes across as medium-bodied to me. But man is it smooth...

    DPG Cuban Classic. As a DPG fan, I don't know how I've went so long without trying this wonderful cigar. It's been laying in the humi for about 8 months.

    I picked up the Coffee Infused Sampler a while back out of curiosity. I've never had a coffee infused smoke.
    Lit up the first one this morning...the Tabak Especial Dulce. I have to admit that I'm pleasantly surprised!
    It's smooth, creamy and sweet but not sickeningly sweet. I honestly didn't think I'd enjoy any of these but now I'm looking forward to the others as a nice morning smoke!

    Had about 1 1/2 inch off a Cu-Avana Intenso before I had to go back inside and help more sick people.
    wish I had more time with it.

    I'm attempting to smoke a CAO Brazillia but it's quite plugged...the last 3 have been so tightly bunched in the head that it's impossible to get a decent draw.

    What vitola? Can you snip a little more off it? I have a long piece of heavy gauge wire that I use to open them up when that happens. Nothing ruins a stick more then having to draw on it like it's a piece of wood.

    It's the Gol. I've snipped 3 times already...it's to the edge of the shoulder now. These are so tightly packed that a draw poker doesn't help.

    MAN I HATE THAT !!! It is too bad because the GOL is the only vitola I like that stick in. What is the RH in your humi? Maybe if you try dry boxing one for a day or two, but these sound like they were rolled too tightly at the head, which is hard to fix without shoving something into it to open up an air hole. Too bad bro'.

    My Maduro drawer stays at a constant 68% & 70°. I agree...it's my favorite vitola as well. I've smoked nearly a box of em without an issue...guess I can't complain much.
