Re: Cigarro del dia - numero siete
Four years ago, I created a short-lived batch of cigars, simply called C-C-D, that used Cameroon, Colombian, and Dominican filler. Decided after awhile that I just didn’t like it and gave it up. Thought they were all gone, but found one tonight from October 2014 and decided to remind myself why I didn’t like it. Of course... it was awesome. Wholly pleasant from start to finish. Now, do I recreate it and let them sit for four years? Unlikely...

Look what I finally got a couple of fivers of. Singara has been smoking a lot of these so I am trying them out. So far I am very impressed. Enjoy

Re: Cigarro del dia - numero siete
Keeping the Conny train a rollin here with this Devils Weed Connecticut cigar. Where to start? Well back in 2008 a guy named Luis Molina wanted to venture into the cigar biz. He put out Devils Weed a cigar that priced about $5-8 and came in nice packaging with a cool logo and slide top box. Around 2010/11ish things were not going so hot and CI pretty much bought out all stock which is about the time I had my first DW cigar a figurado that was pretty darn good. I recall Bob McDuffee at the time lambasting CI for the way they worded the advertisement on the brand during a forgotten Dogwatch saying that this is how brands are destroyed. Well old Bobert was on to something as the brand went from boxes to bundles to a short lived Maduro version to strictly a budget conny bundle as Molina Cigar no longer made or owned the product. Flash forward to August 2018 and Bob sends me a Devils Weed toro in a cigar bomb. Once over the irony I noticed PDR now makes the blend (that could be good right?) but also that they used the name to launch a cheap coffee infused version as well. Finding out a cigar comes in Coffee flavor is like noticing the word ICE on a beer can. I highly doubt it is indeed Milwaukee's 'best'
On lighting the cigar was sweet and very grassy. I expected that and after an inch or so I actually got some coffee flavor on the finish. Not artificial either, just a natural flavor note. That was kind of nice. Was this a world beater? No. Should John Bull be dethroned as king of the cheap connys? Never! Perish the thought you heathens! But the Devils Weed Conny was a servicable yard gar folks plain and simple.

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace. - Raul Julia

What a beautiful Sunday morning. Coffee and cigars before it gets horribly hot. Cookout later in the heat. Enjoy
