Currently smoking a full flavoured Charatan Panatela. Not bad so far.

Saturday 23rd May

Isn't it Sunday 23rd not Saturday?

I know. As you can see I had changed it soon after posting, but unfortunately the title is still persistently showing the original version I posted. Apologies.

I think we may need moderator-lead intervention to correct this.

Shhh... If no-one says anything we might get a three day weekend...

I'm currently in a bit of a conundrum. Yet again I'm nowhere near my humidor and wanting a cigar. I have two BHK52s (courtesy of Mitch/CGars) or a San Cristobal El Morro - which is a little larger than I'd like for this afternoon.

Brilliant idea for a 3 day weekend and tough choice to have to make,poor sole.

No worries! I'll post another Saturday thread tomorrow!

As for Simon's conundrum, might I suggest a BHK for now, another during tea, and the El Morro after dinner.

A R&J Short Churchill after breakfast and I am enjoying with a Punch Churchill in the garden with a "long island ice tea"... Cheers.....

Got a El Rey De Mundo Choix Supreme for the Sunday afternoon, and a Bolivar Corona lined up to watch season finales of House and Bones.

Sheer Bliss

Just finish up 1 of the G-Man 8th street quickies and for a 20 minute smoke quit enjoyable. Now onto A Nub Cammy > Oh Boy Oh Boy this is 1 lazy frickin day of sheer Bliss .

I also had a RyJ Short Churchill today. Was a lovely stroll around the local country park too.

The stick I had was from a Dec06 box. I never really liked these when I got them so put them aside for a while. This was the 1st one from the box I have had in about a year and a half and what a difference it made.

Unless it was an iffy box I seriously think these need about 3-4 years to mature.

[r0lan6]

I envy your patience.

[Paulie]

Ahhhhh, the trick is to find a different stick which has matured to the taste you like then buy a box of them in the meantime.

I am definately finding that I much prefer a cigar which has matured for at least a couple of years and in some cases much longer. If I am ordering from shops I usually ask for a box from a specific month/year and they often find it for me, if not then as close as they can. Worth asking othewise you just end up with the box on top of the pile!

So I could purchase a few boxes of BHK 54s, smoke the two I've already bought, and just dump the rest in my humidor for at least 2 years... Interesting.

A Party Luis on the sun drenched golf course, found it a little muted as was the golf but i did managed to fine a swamp looking for my ball. Went in about a foot deep and was covered in mud, surfice to say mud is a good sunblock. Came home and had an Oliva series O robustos which gave me alot more flavour than the Party did and drank a lovely cooling slush puppy that cleansed the palette.
