    #38 is another stick from my Secret Santa, Bombay. A short LFD torpedo that I paired with a Great Lakes Brewing Co Porter. Very nice on a beautiful summer evening. Thanks bro! IMAG0171

    My Secret Santa bomb last year was absolutely awesome, so I decided to raid it again for #39. Went with the Tatuaje 2009 L'esprit de Verite complete with amazing picture, lol. Thanks again Santa, it was delicious! IMAG0172

    No pics, but #40 and #41 were smoked this afternoon. First was a Zino Classic from Gray. Really enjoyed this one. Thanks again! Next, I lit up a Tat Baby Face from Trident. Not sure how I held out smoking this for so long. Truly delicious. Thanks man!

    Glad you enjoyed it. I had one early on in my smoking career and didn't care much for it. Thankfully I picked up a 5er recently and revisited. I really liked the last one I had. Even my neighbor said "man that smells good."

    Those maduro corticos are tiny little bits of happiness in my book. They're tasty, but it took me some time to balance the draw rate on them-they are easy to smoke too fast and get bitter if you do. Hope you enjoyed, brian.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    This was my first attempt at such a small cigar. It was very interesting trying to smoke it slow, draw correctly and keep it lit. I was never a cigarette smoker, so the drawing thing was an issue......i was trying to draw like a larger ring gauge and it wasn't going to well, so i stopped drawing to hard and that helped a little, but still was interesting to smoke. I smoked it down to the little ity bitty nub though because it was tasty.

    Yeah, I never did cigarettes, either. I found, like you did, that it wasn't so much frequency of draw as it was drawing very gently. Glad you found it nub worthy. I usually do, too. This post made me look. I'm down to one! May have to make an emergency run to the B&M. But that's a dangerous proposition.
