Smoked a 5 Vegas Gold Torpedo on porch early morning, still not porch weather, sticky. 5 Vegas is what I can afford.

Well your doing pretty good Brad that's over three times my budget per stick. You have to watch cigars carefully last week I watched a PDR Small Batch Maduro go from a buck a piece to over five dollars a stick. All that on the same website. I grabbed a bunch of Padilla's for 1.85 ea last month no regrets.

I recently tried and immediately loved Kentucky Fire Cured (My Uzi Weighs a Ton). I had previously stopped smoking cigars altogether but many of you posting what sticks you're enjoying along with a liberal amount of web surfing, reading forums and you tube videos peaked my desire for a cigar. I wet my beak with 5 Vegas Classic, Gold & Series A Maduros, Obsidian Insidious and now Kentucky Fire Cured. My new 50 cigar humidor, once seasoned has quickly become populated.

You will have to review the Obsidian Insidious and My Uzi I have not tried those sticks yet. Having just started back up after a Hiatus I grabbed some intro bundles to mix things up and some old favorites.

Torpedos are my favorite shape, but many nights don't last long enough, so I am going for Churchhills for this one.

Looks like no cigars in a few days, huh boys? lol
I have been in much more of a cigar mode lately. Looking at a new humidor tomorrow at Holts. Probably going with a 50 count Ashton Savoy Executive. We will see when I get there.
That aside, I have been hitting the 5 Vegas Classic Coronas a lot lately.

Smoked a Hex figurado cigar that I’ve has for at least 5 years, it was pretty good. I don’t smoke a lot of equadorian habano wrappers so it was certainly different

Made an executive decision to scrap the big money on a desktop 50 count, and going with a NewAir cigar cooler. 400 count storage, for the same price.

Smoked a Famous VSL CIGAR, really liked it , bought a 20 cigar sampler from Famous Smokes, it had a nice draw, not too strong but a good flavor. Since I’m a bignner I’m still experimenting, James/Scrooge had given me this brand.

RP Decade rated 95 the first third was ok the last half was superb. The construction was spot on and I believe some Humidor down time would only improve things. 9/10 on the buy again list.

Had two last night while sitting on the patio watching some TV. Padron Corona (I think it was a natural, but I'm not 100% sure), and a Macanudo Hampton Court Corona.
The Padron was amazing... the Mac... eh. Little too boring for me.

Update: It was indeed the Padron Maduro Corona. Good stick.

One of the best investments I made for my house was a retractable awning for the back patio. 99% of the time, even when it's windy rain it can be used, as we are a row house sandwiched between two others.
