Gus is double down on warm accoutrements. It is a bit cold. Another of the JR Alternative Macanudo cigars. They are ok. Not a Macanudo. Fresh hot, black coffee on the side.

My third and last La Aurora 115 cigar for this trip. This is the one I rolled. After I pulled a giant stem our with my fingers, it smokes great like the rest. I’m not complaining. They were all free. Back to pipes till we hit the mainland. I’ll see you guys on Saturday :)

No, but the folks at Ezra Zion may have. They do make good cigars.

I had a Southern Draw between storms outside. First one I've had. Good flavor but a little uneven of a burn. Picked it up because it was one of the few smaller gauge cigars the store had outside of cigarillos.

Man , isnt that the thing these days ... fat ring gauge is " the thing " . I dont have anything against a large gauge but the thing is people say the makers are able to create better blends with the added space , which is true , but its also easy and a cop out , because it takes great skill to make a stellar corona or Lonsdale as an example . The bullshit these days in the cigar industry is even worse than when I was in it [ imho ] .
Lol , I could rant on the subject but wont . I miss when everyone had Lonsdales etc .. I know some are still out there but you know what im saying
