Love this size. I was lucky to find a few boxes at MSS before the prices went bonkers. I remember thinking at the time that £530 for a box was an high price to pay. Almost seems cheap by modern standards
Davidoff Nicaragua Robusto - Lovely toothy wrapper, nicely balanced spice, wood and coffee, and even some dried fruit/apricot coming through at one point. My favourite Davidoff so far, after becoming slightly disillusioned with the brand (value-wise) after the last few.
Just home from my sons football tournament which they won 🏆 🏆 🏆 so treating myself to a Ramon Allones by AJ Fernández (previous COTM) and a Modelo not the best pairing but still beautiful.
QdO coronas claro, after a few months' forced hiatus from the hobby - I suffered a seizure which paralysed the entire left side of my body back in March, which was caused by a very large tumour in the ride side of my brain. Went through a 12hr craniotomy to extract the tumour and have been recovering since. Looking back over the last 8 months or so I was clearly suffering symptoms caused by the tumour but was either normalising them or putting them down to other things eg. The constant severe headaches I was putting down to general winter bugs, fatigue from work and sleepless nights with the newborn. Thankfully I'm doing well and am working with the neuro physio to rebuild strength and movement in the left side of my body. Got the all clear from the docs to travel abroad with the family for some much needed downtime for all of us
First time trying this cigar. I know opinions vary on the brand's flavour profile. I quite like it as an early daytime smoke. Although the construction was pretty good and it didn't need any touching up throughout the smoke, I felt like the draw was slightly looser than I've come to like, perhaps underfilled a tad. Chuffed through it quicker than I expected to get through a cigar of this size.

First important milestone achieved - left hand cigar smoking! All the best. Good to see you back.
