    Wanted to smoke a cigar but my body is full of nicotine after the cigar tasting. I definitely want a ISOM next.

    I need to start more days with a smoke... lol! But I usually don't eat and don't know how that'd go.

    Smoking a Man O' War ruination torpedo with some coffee after a meeting at work, the results either really good or really bad, lol

    smoke a very mild bodied smoke. thats how. Cabaiguan is a good stick. Davidoff thousand series is good to wake up with.

    Rick (RCY Cigars) tuned me onto a good morning smoke...the Carlos Torano Dominico. Mild enough to smoke on an empty stomach and pairs well with hot or iced coffee. Bonus is they won't break the bank at a Mazo of 20 robustos for $29.95

    For a couple of really good, cheaper sticks, try the Gran Habano #3 Connecticut or the C.COM Blue & Purple Label. They are all very tasty, with several vitolas to accommodate just about any morning schedule. The GH #3 Connie is a staple in my morning rotation, with a flavor profile that rivals most super premiums.

    I don't smoke in the mornings bc of patients, but I love the ccom American Label and it would be great in the morning too!

    It was good, lots of chocolate flavors, not as much mint as I had hoped for---but it had been in my humi for about 1 yr so I think it had lost some flavor. I need to try one rott.

    This is really good... I'm surprised at the quality of the finish given the price point. It's a great morning coffee smoke. I'll be checking sprint now for a box of corona's lol image

    Did you have any issues getting it started? I had one, enjoyed the flavor, burned well once started, but had to wrestle with it for 10 minutes to get it to start and produce smoke. Want to get some for morning smokes, but don't want to go through a 10 minute dance to the cigar lighting gods every morning.

    Nope...perfect burn actually. Surprised to say the least and given the price I can deal with a dud or two. It's also only been in my humi less then 48 hours.

    Nice choice Dustin. I need to get some more of those too - can't beat it for the price.

    I've gone through almost 10 of them and don't remember ever having a burn issue - I'm guessing you got a dud, James.

    Almost certainly true. Just threw me off because it is the first "dud" I have ever had that still tasted fine and had no draw issues. Usually, if one thing is off, a lot of things are off with how intertwined cigar construction and blending is... Like I said, weird. Will have to add some to next months order.

    Glad you liked it bro, I bought a box of 20 and haven't had any burn issues with them.

    Dominico by Carlos Torano, courtesy of MTucelli. He sent a bundle as a donation to my Stateside Soldier Pass and insisted that I try a few for myself. Pleasantly surprised! Smooth and creamy with acres of smoke. Excellent accompaniment to my morning coffee. Thanks for turning me on to a new smoke, Mike!!
