Arty filter aside, it's a La Invicta Honduran Maduro. Not the most complex thing in the world, but being at the right time and the right place, on a gorgeous evening, heightened the experience.

You nailed it there Mr Moose, an average cigar at the right time can beat a great cigar at the wrong time, every time.

I only took one photo at the herf which was my first smoke. This however was followed by a Las Vegas de Rios Exquisito, a Monty 5 courtesy of [MENTION=13372589]cigarmo[/MENTION] and a Mag 50 to finish off the night.

Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?

Interesting theory, PeeJay? But how the heck do you know the "right time?" I would think anytime you light up a great cigar is the "right" time. Am I missing something here?

If a may chime back in. I think "the right time" is a deeply personal thing. For some I reckon the cigar maketh the moment indeed, and I've smoked a few that might edge into that group. But for me, more often, good view, good company, good humour - all these things can take (like in this case a ?4 so-so stick) the experience into a different league. Where I'm not sure if it was a Cohiba costing many times more could "offset" the other factors.

That said, there may be times, oh those glorious times, when it *all* comes together, and right time/right place combines with a really great stick. I think I'd defy any fellow BOTL and SOTL not to be at least hoping for one of those smokes.

Hehe, I could wax lyrical on this for ages. Possibly over a good whisky and a good cigar!
