@KS Plainsman I have 2 fans in there that take D batteries. They move air at least. At this point I’m not too worried about it as the tip and bottom are within my range of happiness. I also have computer fans. I was gonna build a small duct from bottom to top but the more I thought about it the less I cared that much lol. In summer time here my whole cabinet will hold closer to proper. I think the cold floor has something to do with it ????? Not sure.
Another thing is that cabinet isn’t completely “full” of cigars. I mean it is but it’s got room. More smokes make less area you need to try to control.

so far I’m happy with it

Never had. Any good?

Never had. Any good?

They aren’t a glamorous or high dollar smoke but they are a decent cigar. I have about one a month or so.

I have had a few since Saturday :

NUB Double Maduro : it had a good bold flavor & burn for a Nub.


Cuban Bolivar Royal Corona :
These have a flavor I can’t quit place but it’s growing on me & it had a great burn.



Alec Bradley Tempus Nicaraguan:

I just like them


Ave Maria Charlemagne ( Presidente )

Decent flavor & burn plus I just like them. I would probably enjoy them more if I would sit down & smoke them while listening to a ballgame or watching a fire. I had this one while hauling corn.



Joyo de Nicaragua Black :

Good flavor, burn got a bit wonky in the middle but overall I liked it. Massive smoke out put.

We made it back fellas. Smoked a hererra esteli lounge edition the other night and an Oliva v last night.

nothing special avout the lounge edition. Just cost it’s the same original blend just box pressed. I like that cigar so no worries.

the v is one of the cigars that got me smoking regular

Caldwell blind mans bluff
Quick little story
Caldwell used to be one of my favorite mfgs
Over in the Dominican Republic he had a barn fire and lost all of his good stuff. (Tobacco)
I hope one day he is able to get back to where he was before. He didn’t loose everything but in my opinion it hurt his quality because he had to source new stuff
Another funny thing Caldwell rolled mostly with Dominican tobacco. I typically hate Dominican exception litto Gomez (lfd) is special and Caldwell

I’d avoid his “lost and found” line. Never had one that was special enough to warrant the price.
“Pepper cream soda” is thought highly of by a lot of people but I didn’t love them

Another interesting thing apparently he just put out a new cigar in January I’m gonna have to try one.

if you’ve never had any and you see some on sale or the core blends on cbid I like basically everything he rolls. I think in a few years. Hopefully already. This stuff will be great again. The one I’m smoking is a winner

Rocky Corojo this morning. Not usually a corojo guy but this cigar isn't bad at all.

I’m not a big rocky fan but I liked that one myself

I am having this Ramon Bueso Genesis The Project while hauling corn today.

 

[KS Plainsman]

Having one of these today. It had to come in a sampler, because I don't know that I've heard of this brand before.

I have never had one but heard good things about them.

I had this one this afternoon while hauling corn.

I have never had one but heard good things about them.

They are rated high, but it was kinda dull to me. Didn't really have any normal cigar flavors, if that makes sense. Burn was even, draw was awesome, but the taste just wasn't there for me. I have a few more. Maybe something will happen with them after they sit.

It also held a cherry for a good amount of time. Some cigars I find I have to keep puffing on, or they go out. This one sat for a good bit and 2 puffs and it took back off.

I'm really liking box pressed cigars though. I know that.

Hit a different shop on my home today. Grabbed this JFR Lunatic. 4 3/4" x 70. Good cigar but too big of a ring gauge for my everyday liking

 

[KS Plainsman]

Had a La Aoma de Cuba Mi Amor today. Not a bad cigar, but a bit stronger than I like.
