I fired up an H. Upmann refugee Churchill last night only to find this in the first 1 1/2". Basically turned the Churchill into a Robusto by the time I got down trimming it so I could get a draw through it. Damn near gave myself a hernia trying to get it lit. Shame, as the stick had 10 years of age on it.stems and more stems.jpg

A couple of stems and some big veins. Cigar was not plugged but couldn't get the draw I'm accustomed to in a CC. Massaging didn't help. Hard as a rock from the tip to about 1 1/2" down. Finally cut it to where I thought the plug ended and I could get a decent draw.

I see a big guy on the right, getting ready to hurl a brick at the little guy on the left, who looks like he's trying to run away.

Any shrinks on the boards want to try and analyze my interpretation ?:-k

Dude!

I didn't see it til I read your post. The little guy takes some imagination, but the guy with the brick is right there.

Maybe a left hook, but never a brick.😉

It was good, don't get me wrong. I just wish I could have kept it at the Churchill size instead of having to chop part of it off to get it to smoke.

But at least the wrapper didn't peel so I would have to take it off and smoke the binder (you had to be there).
