Currently a great sale on the Baptiste on the regular Famous site.

Currently smoking both a Olivia Baptiste Maduro and an Olivia series O Maduro.
Think I like the Baptiste better. Cheaper also.

This one is up there.

Had an AB Lost Art last night. Got wonderfully nic sick from it. Highly recommended.

This morning is the Monte. Paired with some home roasted Kenyan Peaberry coffee.

Holts.com exclusive stick made by My Father cigars.

I got the regular Old Henry along with some Old Henry maduros.

I am normally a maduro fan, but the maduros were toro size 6X52, and the regular were
champion 6.25X56. The maduro had tight draw and not best flavor, and regular had great draw and great flavor, much preferred.

I really like the regular Old Henry and will buy more. $140 for a box of 25. This is regular price,
not on sale or military discount. So priced well. Supposedly on line retailers exclusive cigars are priced lower for whatever reason. Kinda like Famous exclusive Olivia Baptiste.

The Old Henry is supposed to be Full bodied. I found it very smooth, not bitter, good flavor,
perfect spice on retro.

Named after a favorite dog that had passed at Holts.

Could be the maduro was just too wet...
You can also use a Modus tool to help with plugged sticks.

There are a number of tools you can use to improve draw. But be careful when using them as you can cause damage to the cigar and a finger LOL. I use this when I have a stick with poor draw...

Love working from home. Too bad I don't get to do that anymore.

Love working from home. Too bad I don't get to do that anymore.

It is tough not having a full size keyboard and mouse and my three monitors, but at least I have power and internet here.

I have a nice dual 32 inch monitor setup at home with a full sized keyboard and mouse. It's actually nicer than what I have at the office. The issue is that the company has changed its policy now that the pandemic is in the rearview mirror.

Smoking the San Cristobal.

First one, very impressed. Has the sweet aftertaste I like. Early, but way up on list.

After smoking more of those Old Henry sticks, not as good as I remember.

Decided tonight was a pipe night.
Been so hot that I don't have to commit a whole hour plus to a cigar.
Warped "Until the End" is in the bowl.

F1, coffee, and a good cigar.
Happy Sunday
