82222 My Father la Gran Oferta lancero with thanks to jeebling. I was once a huge fan of MF. Maybe still am, but I've not bought much from them lately, trying other things. Got in a rut and was smoking them almost exclusively. So I like MF, I like lanceros. Fingers crossed.

First light dry habano. Crap. It backs off after an inch. Fairly typical my father notes. Cream, coffee, pepper lil woody. My tongue is suffering from excessive smoking today so I'll miss nuance I'm sure. But it's already exponentially better than the last two simply on the merit that there's something there. Draw is good, burn is straight enough. Date on jeebs sticker is 4/24 and MFs usually need some rest to shine. But it's got the pepin pepper, dark earthy notes, coffee n cream no sugar the bitter woodiness and astringency stuck around but not enough that I have to back out early. Smoked the whole thing.

It's decent, but not a profile I prefer. If you like habano wrapper, go for it.

82234 - Unbanded double perfecto from SOB. This was part of the local-B&M-cigars thread a while back. The first 60%ish of this cigar was connie, then it switched to a maduro wrapper. They're good. We suspect, but cannot prove, it's a JSK roll.


I walked 18 holes yesterday. Haven't played in a long time. Shot a 68, and that included a couple of penalties.
(Dinosaur ate my ball on the 9th. Got stuck in the windmill on the 15th.)

Oops, added the cigar name (…just so Lee can rant about it…).

But as far as the cigar goes, iffin’ you can get them at a decent price, then yes. I’ve enjoyed the two I’ve ashed up. I got them from the small place and coupling the sale discount and reward points, paid under $7 per. But that was 4 years ago so you can probably get a better deal now.

They were on sale at the small place 2 weeks ago. I bought a fiver for $35.62

Looks fine, nothing on the nose or cold draw. First half very mild run of the mill Connie. Draw is a bit tight, nothing serious. Notes of marshmallow, cocoa, vanilla but stingy amounts and even less white pepper, nice balance. Reminds me of those International Coffees they used to sell. Still do?Celebrate the moments in your life. Consistent mild sweet finish and retro. Cool smoker. The above flavors continued to nub but hard to find. This was a typical Connie, not worth the $12 I paid for it. Not recommended.
