Last night of nice weather here before heading out to Japan.

Went outside and lit up one of the cheroots Mike generously sent. ?(brazil hab viso and Nic binder)? test blend

Standard cigar flavors up front, developed a creamy-ness to the smoke with a light soft spice. Tickled the back of the throat and led to a bit of a sneezing fit but I am going to blame me for smoking the entire thing in under 30min. Nice aroma off of the stick as well.

As an aside putting my phone in portrait mode and realizing the phone thinks having itself sideways with the unlock button on top is how an android phone will put pics on the forum normally instead of sideways.

Well done Stew!! This is fantastic! I dry boxed it for a couple days and it's smoking great. Sweet and dirty with some baking spice.

Hey, you picked the leaves, man. I just kinda bunched them together with a rubber band and a few staples. I'm glad you are pleased!

My very favorite EP Carrillo cigar ever. Ever. Not even a close 2nd. (and no, Craig, this isn't one of the show samples you sent down)

Another night on the back porch with a cheroot from the generous Mike Stewart. This one had what I read as CBL+Sum Binder on the band. I am sure it wasn't supposed to be smoked in >20min, but hey it was smooth even as it got hot. Also I walked into the house a little staggered so there musta been some oomph to it as well.
(oomph is a technical term in reference to measurement, ask Craig he works with rulers- and infrared guns!)

I concur!

Had a generous benefactor donate some money earmarked for tires....so I went and got some today. They were sorely needed, as each tire had a minimum of 6 plugs in it (which were quite visible cuz there was no tread to speak of).......and this gave me a chance to visit a new shop that's (somewhat) open now while they were installed. Pretty scant offerings and still under construction, but I got a couple new sticks to try.

You know, if you only use half the length of the plug material...
