Went on a ride with Amanda for the first time this morning which was her first time on the streets and she did great! Got back and cleaned up and stopped by The Coffee Tree for lattes and sitting out on the street in the shade having a little Villiger from Edward @silvermouse that is surprisingly good before I take her to Greeley for a little out patient procedure. Thanks Edward for helping us have a great morning, Amanda is enjoying it too.
Thanks again my friend,

Was pretty good here in Weymouth, too.silvermouse said:Morning Charles, all.
Daruma Papi Chulo on a rainy day. Wicked thunderstorm last night. Lightning flashes every 5 seconds, an unusual tornado warning. Didn't amount to much but sure was entertaining.Trapped in the People's Communist Republic of Massachusetts.

September 2017, I put together a series of coronas which I named Flan. I blent half a leaf each of Corojo seco. viso, and ligero, and I added half a leaf of Olor. I bound it with a Columbian binder and wrapped it in a Sumatran binder. It is way way unusual for me to use so many different leaves. I believe too many leaves muddies the result. But it gets worse. I had a batch of oily Habano 2000 wrapper that smelled wonderful but absolutely refused to burn worth a crap. So I made a shroud out off this for each corona. Same idea as those Leaf cigars. Then I shut them all up in a steel canister, to intensify the stinkage. This morning, almost two years later, I extracted one:
and here it is with the shroud removed:
I can't hope for an impartial impression of this one, after investing all that time and effort. But I can tell you this much without diffidence or tergiversation: This is the best goddam cigar smell you have ever smelt in your MF'in gar smellin life, right here on this shroud I took off. And this is the best goddam MFn gar taste you ever put on your tongue, this unlit corona in my jaws. I'm thinking that stinkleaf and two years makes a good recipe. Fact, I am gonna uncork a cold Coors to clean the coffee off my palate before I spark this gem... maybe a Westerhall Plantation Rum chaser. I don't care if it is early.
High hopes., Looking forward to a Torano 1916 experience, from the smells of it.

Ditto! Since I'm smoking the exact same thing this morning, your picture will do nicely. Especially since your photo taking abilities far exceed my own!!!

Tough decision. I decided to go with a Chateau Fuente King T this morning. Heading up to the local Brewery later and taking some sticks since we will be outside on the patio.

New World Cameroon, red bourbon honey processed Honduran in the cup. Both excellent.7 -
Good morning guys...just learned that this "el-why-WHEN-say" is different from the Wiseman. Good full bodied smoke. Very nice....
Edit... halfway through the burn is not great. Very wavy and the Ash is flaky, but the taste is fabulous.

Perdomo Lot 23 while multi-tasking coffee roasting (8 oz. Zambia mafinga hills, then 11.5 oz. Ethiopian/2.5 oz. Rwanda robusto blend) and a couple of loads of laundry; next up the weekly trash run. Typical "day off" activity. Life is good.“The quieter you become the more you are able to hear.”~ Rumi ~

I've only had one, it's a really good cigar. It seems like so many people who have anything to do with Drew Estate are just dominating the industry these days, which is fine by me. Any Nicaraguan puro is going to have my attention no matter what, and I really ought to get some of these...VegasFrank said:Good morning guys...just learned that this "el-why-WHEN-say" is different from the Wiseman.

I think the burn issue has more to do with the vitola and the nature of the Jalapa, both wrapper and filler.
