Friends- I really enjoyed the Perdomo 10th Maduro tonight. Paired with a Dark Roast... wow. Chillin in my hobo hut.

Avo Maduro followed by a Perdomo 10th Maduro while I’m freezing my ass off studying for my final Final Exam.

I had a 10th Maduro tonight and really enjoyed! Yes- I froze my ass off for it.

You got a Contenders Pack too? I’ve tried 5 of the 7 so far. What is your favorite so far?

No - just decided on picking up a single on that run. I had a couple of others that I was eyeballing.

How was it?

How was it?

Terrible, honestly. I thought that the draw had opened up a bit since clipping it on Saturday, but it didn't, really. No good flavors to speak of, though it did have fleeting moments of "Upmann". I caught some strong ammonia near the end, so I'm not sure if it is in its sick period, or just needs more time. I smoked another from the same box (it was part of the FF split) a few weeks ago, and it was great. Hopefully this was just a CC QC dud...

These recent boxes are using the “old ways” that allowed the cigars to age really well, but they do take some time, and some of the ones I’ve smoked exhibited the same traits... put them away for another 6 months and try them again... They will “eventually” be great cigars...

I recall from your other thread, so I'm holding out hope for these last few I have from the split. I still have about half of that other 2018 box in the humidor that I've pretty much made myself forget about for the time being.

I'm just glad my purchasing far outpaces my smoking, so my cigars get to age without any required intention most of the time!

Good morning from snowy Southern NH. Long slow ride ahead of me to Southern MA.

I have to say, I think I'm a pretty good driver in snow. I know I'm damn sure not a good enough driver, to enjoy a cigar while driving in snow! Be safe, those other drivers are crazy.

Lol rough winters up here. Driving in the snow is second nature.
