Enjoying this much more than the Flor de Selva. Did not like that. How was yours, @Cole ?

I have a history with the Flor de Selva Churchill, since it was one of the first cigars I smoked on a regular basis 25 years ago, when I started with cigars. So I liked it.

And since cubans became so rare and completly overpriced I stick to Honduras and Nicaraguar these days.

@Cole thanks, I think that was my first Flor de Selva, so no nostalgic attachment for me. My first was a Cohiba a Cuban friend gave me. Needless to say I’m not buying them right now. I buy „cheap“ Cubans every now and then, but in general stick to other countries, too

I miss cigars…Romeo and Julieta was always one of my favourites. Cohiba’s were always good, but what I miss most is a good pipe tobacco. Haven’t smoked in years, but I really miss it….

When I met my wife she gave me an option of either her or smoking…I tried to hide it, but she always knew. I made that compromise.

@goosehd my wife doesn’t mind, which is a relief. Romeo y Julieta Milles Fleurs is a smoke that I like to have at home, because that was one of my first regular cigars. Still relatively affordable, but varying in quality imo

[goosehd]

They were 30 years ago too…

@goosehd Cuban QC may have different specs

A few recent smokes

CAO has a great motor inspired run called "Flathead". They're all box pressed. The 770 is my go to. Make sure you have a few hours. It's a big stick. Spectacular though

@CosmoSix5 always enjoy CAO smokes

[CosmoSix5]

@Tago-Mago Indeed. CAO American series is my quick smoke. I forget what the 5in is called I ordered them a long time ago. Potomac.

[Tago Mago]

@CosmoSix5 I had a few CAO Pilon that were very smooth, enjoyed them very much. CAO Nicaragua is also nice

After coffee in Samaipata, had enough time for small smoke

I know next to nothing about cigars. Probably smoked less than a dozed so far. This small, thin Romeo & Julieta tasted quite harsh on the tongue.

A few recent smokes, all great sticks. The New World Puro Especial was fantastic
