Got through the intro and chapter 1 of what I can already tell is going to be a difficult read for yours truly. Kind of like hanging out in the kiddie pool for over a decade and deciding to jump in the real one with no floaters or lifeguard present. Enjoyed the rain on the porch's metal roof and this Kip stick during my reading.

Cuban Aristocrat — Post-gym cigar. Really good, medium-bodied cigar. Image
Belles Artes — One of my favorite AJs — zesty, woody, nutty, and spicy Image
PDR Reserva Limitada — really one dimensional — pretty much all earthy; just rough Image
Favorite EP Carrillo. Hands down. La Historia Senador Image

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

Last morning in TN, and I'm smoking something very familiar - a La Aurora 1495, I believe from @jledou. I wanted to test my altitude theory. Yep. Tastes different than the DR. Image

Yesterday out back. Followed a bowl of Labrador earlier in the day and a CT Fiesta from the day before that. All of which have been shown here in photos before.

Had the chance to sit with Luis for a while before we flew out of Miami, so I grabbed a few LTC coronas. Every bit as good as ever - in fact, this one is spectacular. Image

My first of a new(ish) line of cigars by Nestor Miranda. Various sizes and wrappers having the same band using different colors. This is the Coffee Break size, with a habano wrapper. Pleasant enough, fairly mild, at a decent price point (~$6.50). Good enough to try the other wrappers.

That coffee break vitola is one they put out in various lines *sometimes*. It was fantastic in their old Art Deco
