Big smoke day today. Second smoke is a Monte 80? anniversary. I should have dry boxed it as I know 67rh may be a bit too much for smoking these big suckers. And what?d you know, after fighting a wet crazy burn in the first half for almost 45 minutes, I finally managed to tame the bastard. From then on an absolutely beautiful smoke. But still a shame I had to struggle for 45 min.
More complex and a touch better than the QdO Capitolio IMO.

I had a very enjoyable afternoon entertaining @Tomm783 and his family and fortunately the ladies agreed to let us out to smoke and even joined us. I went for an Arturo Fuente Hemingway Signature; one of a handful I bought from my guest, and he enjoyed a custom rolled puntilla whilst pondering the nature of bees!
I think I have one of these in my stash somewhere. What was it like?
Honestly I didn?t rate it today... I was doing jobs around the garden and had to keep re-lighting it. My lighter was having none of it too as it kept fizzing out on me. So I think it was just the setting today.
When it was going it produced plenty of smoke, and was quite even in its flavour. The construction was superb giving a free and easy draw. Was quite mild flavoured although in the middle got a good bit gutsier.
I?ve had a few others which were more memorable .... bad day, wrong setting.
