    What a gorgeous morning. Thought I'd celebrate the fantastic weather by sitting in my garden for the next 2 hours and smoking a Tabernacle double corona.

    So drawing on [MENTION=13436219]Emaresee[/MENTION]'s good advice that a cigar doesn't have to be expensive to be good here I am starting the day with a La Aurora Principe corona that you cab pick up for a euro each in Spain. This is a chocolate infused cigar, you can smell it on the wrapper but you can't taste it although some people can also smell it in the smoke. What you do get is a very smooth, light and flavoursome smoke that's perfect for the morning. These are made from the off cuts of La Aurora's bigger hand rolled sticks. Oh, and [MENTION=13403912]Tucky[/MENTION] and I have found the ladies like them too!

      LGC MdO No 4 and some more of yesterday?s pale ale, really like this from BrewDog and the fruitiness of both the drink and cigar work well.

        Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment as you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it!

          AF Anejo 46 this afternoon. The ageing of the leaves in cognac barrels before rolling is novel but bloody delicious.

            Don Lino Africa. A dark imposing stick! Quite smooth, mild flavor, smells nice. Very large RG!

            Has it been pre bored for me!?

            Pair with a light g&t with some fresh plucked mint from the garden. Yum.

              Not tried before, but loving this stick! Oodles of creamy smoke coming off it

                  Stout? In this weather??

                  Genuine question though - I'm partial to porters/stouts, but almost never have any in the summer months

                    I hear what you're saying. It's hardly a refreshing summer drink, but I love stout. In hindsight I would have probably enjoyed it more once the sun has gone down but I wanted to try this one.

Surprisingly it's a vitola I haven't tried before, despite starting my Havana experience on several boxes of No4's. On opening this 2004 tube the smell was very rich. The wrapper very dark & if it was a blind tasting I wouldn't have guessed it's humble origin. However aging in a tube had done wonders for this example & perhaps gives credence to the belief that better quality stix are put in them. Can't say I have noted this before but it's comforting to believe these tales.

                      Lasted 50mins & was as full a flav as I can recall from any Monte. Perfect burn & draw, flav constiant until the last 1 1/2 " when I rested it. I have quiet a few Monte Tubos, including some '70's tubes but now I won't turn my nose up at it's little brother. Enjoy your Sunday smoking!

                          Round 2 is a RyJ Cazadores from a trade with Simon. Only just started it but very very smooth and mild. It's a firm draw, which I prefer. So long hard puffs working well.

                          Wrapper looks dry mild aroma from the wrapper. But certainly more flavor than that suggested. And an easy cool retro on it. Nice.

                          This is a great format too. This one's 2001! And certainly lives up to expectations for a good old stick.

                          Thanks Simon.

                            Glad you're enjoying it Banos, past it's punchy Hunter style perhaps but still a superb outdoor smoke, enjoy!
