    That's the lightest umbagog I've ever seen. That wrapped looks like a connie or habano

    I missed due to rain (I smoke outside). Who was the speaker?

    A good cigar and whiskey solve most problems.

    There was a scheduling conflict so Steve Saka from Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust was unable to join, but we had a lively discussion anyway; I think I may have monopolized the conversation due to lack of sleep which tends to loosen my tongue.

    You were just fine, Chris. The fill-in was Ronnie from Secreto Lounge in Ferndale MI, and to be frank, I'm glad it was him and not Saka.

    Yeah, I put in my Google Calendar as a recurring meeting which is synced to my Zoom desktop client so when I open Zoom I can just click on the meeting link that's already there.

    Smoking the blind smoke for L&L

    It's an ADVentura cigar, guest is Henderson Ventura, I thought it was an Espinosa Laranja Reserva from the orange notes. It's The Conqueror

    I got the L&L Blind Tasting pack in a glorious 10 finger bag. TYVM Roman for hosting these fun events.

    When I got Roman's email it set me to thinking about June... I told him the MKE herf is that weekend and most of the attendees kick things off on Thurs at Patrick's, and Roman thought we were important enough to change things up. So the June LnL Blind Tasting will be moved out a week too.

    Spring break was 3 weeks ago.

    Tonight's cigar. Light with some baking spice flavors and a nice retrohale. Due to shipping logistics, some got a torpedo and some got a toro vitola of the same cigar.

    The guest tonight is Ian Reith from Dapper Cigar

    I'm glad you asked, Shawn, I didn't think it was that time already. I'm looking forward to tonight.

    I did just see the email from @Trident regarding tonight's blind tasting.
