    Well that's no good.

    Truth be told, I've been enjoying pipes way more than cigars lately. I get so much more flavor from pipe tobacco. A lot of cigars have very similar flavors for me, but not pipe tobacco.

    School in Vegas for the next 2 weeks. Brought a bunch of cigars. My first Plasencia. Good so far. But not over the top great like many proclaim. IMG_20240407_171021360_HDR.jpg

    My Father the Judge last night on the school patio. I liked this one better than the Plasencia from Sunday evening. IMG_20240408_170625212.jpg

    Had me this one today on the way back to town. First Camacho, I believe. Not bad. Had quite a bit of flavor for me.

    Warm day on tap here (60's). Think I'll pick one to light up a little later on.

    Had this fugazi padron 64 (torpedo) on Sunday evening and enjoyed it. It was the 2nd one of an 8 cigar sampler that I enjoyed with the other being the cuban montecristo. 2 out of 5 so far that I liked.

    I can't offer a comparison to an actual padron but like I said, I liked the fugazi version.

    [​IMG]
    Sampler contains 1 of each:

    • Fugazi Fuente Opus Dbl Corona (7.6"x49)
    • Fugazi Fuente Don Carlos Eye of The Shark (5.7"x52)
    • Fugazi Padron 1964 Natural Torpedo (6"x52)
    • Fugazi Cuban Cohiba Behike BHK 52 (4.7"x52)
    • Fugazi Cuban Montecristo No. 2 (6.1"x52)
    • Fugazi EPC Pledge Prequel (5"x50)
    • Fugazi EPC Encore Majestic (5.6"x52)
    • Fugazi Aging Room Quattro Nicaraguan Maestro (6"x52)
    Note: Class 34 Fugazi Cigar of the Year brands and blends are not affiliated with the intellectual property of the “compare to brand.”

    This Alec Bradley was pretty decent. Had a sweetness that was nice. Better than the last one I tried. IMG_2026.jpeg
