Last night I smoked a Padron 1926 No. 9 that I recently purchased from bballbaby. Holy crap was it good! The draw was a "tad" light (though still bearable), but it burned beautifully, produced an awesome amount of smoke, and tasted absolutely phenomenal! It was SO good that I decided to sit outside in the Kuwaiti heat this afternoon and smoke another with one of my employees and a work colleague, who puffed on an Oliva Serie V Torpedo and a Nub, respectively.

I was lucky enough to pick up a pair of Padron singles from Tampa Humidor along with a 300ct glass top humidor/Hydra combo I purchased recently. While on the subject of luck, it's awesome to have a wife who is understanding enough not to freak out at the fact that I just bought a whole box of them from a vendor who happened to have one in stock! :D Twas a very good day indeed.

Went with a punch double corona from 98 right after work...that was 90 minutes of heaven right there. one of the best i've smoked in a long time.

smokin a dpg blue toro right now and its having a hell of a time filling the shoes from that punch. but still pretty damn tasty

I'll be back up here in 3/4 weeks and I will have an evening free for sure then.

Yes it is Chuck, great sunset, great cigar, great frends, I call it living the dream... at least for an evening.
As I finally figured out, life is a journey, enjoy it.

A crappy day, long and ugly. I grabbed a cigar this morning to smoke on the way home and I was really looking forward to it. Worked late. Hopped in the Jag and grabbed the little petit corona with the white handwritten label, cut it and lit up without looking at the label. First draw and I was hit with this wonderful flavor and the aroma wafting off the cigar caused to to pull off the road. A 1998 HUp PC. Thanks Crossbow. Made my whole freaking day.

5 Vegas Miami torpedo that was part of a Don Pepin Garcia sampler won at cigarbid and arrived by UPS today. Nice oomph, loads of flavor, wrapper a bit brittle, perhaps due to long voyage west from Pennsylvania.

Had a Mag 46 on the Champs d'Elysees with an espresso. My favorite regular-production Habano! I wasn't even going to have a cigar, but I smelled a RyJ Churchill across the cafe and I got the urge!
