SOL CUBANO CONNECTICUT
One of a few sticks recently arrived from the States from Senor Larrysputnik.
I'm on my long holiday from work and fancied a bigger smoke over a latte or two for breakfast on the patio browsing the posts on my laptop.
It has clouded over and started to spit, so I've had to bring everything back indoors. Ridiculous.
(Hears a met office guy being challenge about why a long-range forecast had been put out about a 'beautiful Summer in the UK' this year. As usual, we've had a week of heat so now we must put up with chilly, rain-threatening weather. We NEVER get that established southern French sexy heat that does us all so much good. Such a predictable story).
I lit this beast (double corona?) in the house. Fuck it. The draft is carrying the smoke through the downstairs, and I'm on my own all day. All evidence vanished, m'lud.
This is a very nice cigar, indeed!
I'm into the second third and it tastes a little bit like honey. There is oodles of smoke at each toke, and the smell is taking me back to the first sticks I nicked and smoked off from my Dad's cigar box as a young teenager. Fairly rich, but not too heavy.
If I was in the States and couldn't buy a Cuban for toffee, I would be most content to smoke this NC - and I think on a regular basis. It has a very clean-tobacco taste, and it's not 'going grey', which is something I dread in an unknown cigar.
If I walked past a terrace where someone was smoking one of these, I would be immediately excited at the aroma. I don't know how you blokes react, but I'd start conversing with whoever was smoking it. We men should stick together on that point.
I've got another 40 minutes or so of this smoke left, and I'm going to enjoy it. It's relaxing me completely.
No picture. I'm in my dressing gown gigolo mode. I may have already frightened the Recycling Truck men from the Council when I opened the curtains.
So thank you, Sir Sputnik, for a great smoke, and an excellent start to this day.
