A great day, thankful for Spring

Today a slice of yum. The excellent Maduro version of the Oliva V Melanio panatella size. A lovely smoke of about 1hr where you are getting full flavor from every draw but in a more diminutive package. The wrapper proportions amplifies the natural sweetness, with coco, leather, a touch of spice predominant

The postman delivers

This morning’s post-breakfast cigar is an Aging Room Core Maduro Rondo. Mineral and toasted bread at the light gives way to dark chocolate, leather, and dark roast coffee. Sweetly spicy, medium-full body.

It’s almost warm enough for gin & tonics, vodka sodas, and the like. My order of Oliva connies seems prescient.

Yesterday, my hand slipped while opening a 5-pack of Oliva connies. Accordingly, this wounded cigar is this morning’s post-breakfast smoke.

It was a helluva day at work. Time to unwind.

Have you ever smelled an unlit Oliva Connecticut? It smells like mountain meadow hay.

Good for you!! I had a heckuva week myself and might match you on the Padron although I have an Olmec that I’ve never tried.

Not a big Connie guy but these were three sixty a stick at CP. I like the Brickhouse but have never had the Zino Platinum

If you like that smell (I do for summer) grab you a box of Romeo and Juliettas. like a box of new mown hay
