My first stick since we moved to Florida. She’s got a little rest on her;)
Welcome to the sunshine state. Remember to leave the northern politics back up there. What part of florida?
West coast is awesome. Take a trip to Anna maria island as soon as possible. One of the best beaches on this planet.

Room101 Breakfast in Portugal to decide if I need to buy more on the Daily Deal. I like these OK, even though this one had a split and discolored wrapper at the foot but I think I’m going to pass and double-down on New World Cameroon as morning smokes.

La Bomba nuclear. This is what I was expecting with the napalm that I didn't get. Little fire stick that mellowed out into a nice full flavored full strength smoke bomb.

There were several vitolas of the labomba that I either don't have or didn't list. There is also that short lived release of the sky, black, yellow, orange, and silver. @Yakster might know...

Afternoon all.
A Hucklebuck from Flatbed....A year on the ticker really helped these.
Trying some good smokes. this pledge is not my cigar of the year, but it has some interesting spices.
Also that lancero was fantastic.
Having an EE from @ShawnOL
Very tasty, thanks Shawn.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
Left my 601 kryptonite at home, so I had to settle for this one on the way home.
Caldwell Eastern Standard Sungrown! Excellent! Good afternoon everyone!
Trapped in the People's Communits Republic of Massachusetts.
Going with La Aurora also. Giving these ADNs a try. ROTT, 1st third is primarily oak.

I have to bow to the master, @VegasFrank knows more about Espinosa cigars that I can remember or probably ever knew.
