Drew Estate Kentucky Fire Cured Swamp Thang. Best describes as a cigar that tastes like pipe tobacco
New pick up tonight Espinosa sampler
That's a big damn hole. I tend to like smaller holes but they can definitely burn your tongue if you pull a hot ember on it because of the small exit, so it makes you go slower. But, ill definitely try that with a case mouth chamfer tool on a 5.56 case.
ETA: tried it. Works very well. I left the burrs on the case mouth to help cut and did the job. Perfect hole.

Pretty good. Spicy, but smooth with a hint of cream or cashews. I may let the rest of the box age a bit before having another though, just to see if there’s any improvement. But all-in-all, a pretty tasty smoke.
Yeah, the .50 was on the verge of ruining the cap. .30 seems like a good balance for most cigars and I use a .223 for small stuff. Decent way to make the use out of old brass.
Some of the cigars in the raffle on Saturday.
I went to a cigar shop with a smoking area. You could smell the cigar smoke from a distance outside. I walked in and they asked me if I had a mask. Ummmm, five guys with man buns sitting there smoking within Ten feet of the door. Two of them offered me a mask along with the girl working there.
No thanks. You're fucking retarded!
I stopped at another place and picked up a couple 26's.

Good lord that’s real dumb. It really pisses me off the “go through the motions” bullshit. The oilfield was always like that with idiot shit no one actually followed. Just go through the motions.... such a waste of time and energy.
I’ll just leave this here for the next time you go there. Smoke them turds y'all! You’re saving your life!
Does nicotine help against the new coronavirus? – DW – 04/27/2020
According to a new French study, smokers could be better protected than others from the novel coronavirus because nicotine blocks its docking sites. Another study, however, suggests exactly the opposite.

This one will turn ya green if you not careful. I know from experience.They aren't scary. If you handled the 40th Anniversary, the Opus X Belicoso is no problem... Or am I just trying to talk you into trying one?
I almost had one. Needed a good night of sleep and didn't want the nicotine, so smoked this Siglo V (in Canada where legal, of course,) instead.
Fantastic cigar. I know Switchblade is not a fan, but I found this cigar to be rich, smooth, and delicious. The flavor is tough to place, something sweet, but a truly great smoke.
I paired with a Sidecar. A questionable choice, it seemed like a better idea than it was in practice. The two didn't compliment each other.

It’s 70° and 90% humidity here in New Braunfels tonight. Getting into a gifted Rock-A-Feller Maduro. Hoping it doesn’t explode before I’m done lol.
It's like a wet blanket out there tonight. Enjoy.
5.56 Connecticut Shade Minuteman with the coffee this morning.
Just had one of those two days ago; indeed, a good go-to smoke.
You have pretty good taste in cigars without a doubt, but that citrus plant in the background of the last couple of pics makes me jealous. It’s February.
Lol. I'm in San Diego, so it's a little more temperate here in the winters. Though today we may not make it to 70F. Brrr....
That tangerine tree has been a head scratcher though. One year it gets a heavy yield, the next year a pittance. The lime and mandarin orange can be the same, but with fewer lean years. And the lemons are pretty constant now, now that they've matured a bit.
The trick will be figuring how to do this in Montana when I retire...there seems to be a few options I will explore as I get closer to leaving this urban liberal insanity.
Some friends in Lubbock are having amazing results with growing citrus and orchids in greenhouses. They have heaters in the coldest times but they get it done and it is a thing of beauty.Lol.

A Hemingway and a glass of Elijah Craig to celebrate the final tuning
on the motor for the woman's 66 Oldsmobile. It makes 550 ft lbs and 490 HP. We backed down the carb to a 650 and played with the jets to keep it streetable for a daily driver. 480 ft lbs and 392 hp on the dyno.
Starting the Sunday off with an Oscuro Maduro 4x44 Minuteman. Counts as breakfast if I get hints of coffee, right?

Smoked another Arturo Hemingway with a few glasses of Buffalo Trace around the fire pit last night. It was a beautiful night.
