    I started this one this afternoon & then tossed it out the window after a bit. It was unimpressive.

    That’s quite a stick to have early in the morning.

    It was pretty darn good, after doing a bit of reading about it I was expecting a bit of strength out of it but didn’t really seem to have any effect on me.

    I had this Maduro Lot 23 this morning & a Lot 23 Sungrown after dinner. I have only had one Perdomo that I really thought I wanted to have again & it was the Perdomo “2” Mistakes. The Maduro produced some flavor but the Sungrowns are unimpressive to me.

    I am having this Vegafina 52 now & they seem to provide some twang & flavor; they are one of my favorites.

    I had this one this morning on a parts run. It wasn’t too bad on the first half but I tossed it just after the 1/2 way point.

    had this one on the way home from my tree job today. It was a very fine cigar. Most enjoyable indeed. I’ll probably always like my pipe tobacco more but cigars have been a pleasant change of pace so far. This one reminded me a little bit of a well done English blend. Thanks for all the excellent suggestions fellers!

    Had another Rocky Patel this evening. Good, very mild cigar. The first third didn't draw the best and the burn wanted to get wonky, but it evened out on it's own and started drawing nicely the next 2/3rds. Not a bad smoke, but my least favorite of all the Rocky Patels I've had so far.
