Would you like a Cigar?

My favorite combination: a Cohiba Esplendido and 18 year-old Macallan.

Just had a , Gilberto Oliva - Reserva Blanc. Very similar in flavor to the La Promesa.
 
Java by Drew Estate. 5x58

I am still pretty new to this hobby, but I am not opposed to infused cigars. I was a bit disappointed by Java but hesitantly would still give it a 4 out of 5

Pros:
Wonderful coffee and chocolate wrapper taste
Nice even burn and it burned down to the 2" mark

Cons:
Really no other taste aside from the wrapper
The square 58 ring was probably a bit too big

I have a Tabak and Nub downstairs I am going to try, and from there I'll decide which infused to buy again.
 
Some good deals from Cigars International. I just put in a big order. Had a 25% off coupon from my last order. Along with other discounts and freebies, I just made a pretty good haul for cheap.[emoji3]

I typically don’t do infused.. but I do occasionally enjoy the Tabak dulce... great sweet coffee taste
 
My new Herf-a-dor, travel humidor by Humicare. Holds 40 cigars. Up to 60 if you take out the foam divider trays.
This thing is stout, and would make a good ammo travel case. Has provisions for locks.
I like variety, and it was a combo deal with 40 cigars.

Just looked through several of the many catalogs I get: Famous Smoke Shop, CI, JR’s, Mike’s Cigars, Thompson. Ended up with a nice order for Mike’s with my standard daily smoke El Rey Del Mundo Cafe de Lait, Don Peppin Blue, and My Father Promesa. Should get me through the next couple of weeks of deer hunting in the upper Midwest.

special cigar night tonight...

I got a pair of Liga Privada Unico A's back in 2012... super rare.. not available for purchase... only obtainable at special events or as a personal gift from Drew Estate, etc..

9 1/2" of sheer DE awesomeness...

It took about 2 1/2 hours for a good buddy and I to smoke em down to the nub.... when it came to the end, I couldnt let it go.. my fingers got singed before I was willing to drop the final 1" of the cigar in the ashtray lol...

I'm still waiting to hear about that shopping spree at the B&M.[emoji3]
 
Ive smoked a couple of these already but today's has been sitting in my humidor for six months. Man does it make a difference! Went from really good to borderline great!

I always try and give a month rest but when I can be even more patient I'm often rewarded .

Downside is I've missed out on some great small batch stuff that was sold out by the time I smoked the single.... :mad:

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!
