@Dishelveled awesome.
My BIL is getting stationed in Nicaragua as an army attache. I’m holding out hope that I can visit some cigar factories but we’ll see how far the political climate deteriorates.

Thanks, T!
You should absolutely make the trip if it's safe to do so, esp with a quasi local connection. Super cheap airfare ($800 round trip 1st class in '14 – SEA to MIA to Managua) and your dollars go very far down there.
Most of the cigar factories are located in the Northen mountain area (Esteli) which is accessed by a slow 2.5hr bus ride. The Drew Estate's 'cigar safari' was very much worth the price of admission, but I wish I had finagled a Padron tour.Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Breezy, but otherwise a phenomenal day here in the mid-Atlantic. Olivia Serie V Milano (and margarita).

I let my humidor get out of whack humidity wise, but this Lost Art is perfect combo to a local ipa and some time on the Egg

Dragging this thread from the ashes: Padron had long ago established their brilliance for me, but only recently have I caved to smoking 85% (rough approximation) of their tobaccos only. Kind of like IH being my main jam with a few worthy rando fly aways.
Anyone got any favorite Padron sticks?
Smoking a '26 no 47 today.

Awesome, RP! I've been encorporating more Cubans into my line-up recently and the Montecristo #4 stood out head and shoulders compared to its peers–great draw, copious smoke and awesome flavors! Seriously thinking about a box of them to age.

Went into a vape shop came out with a cigar. The draw is a little tighter than I like. Pretty good though.

I went to the store looking for those Monte Cristo number 4s and the guy laughed because they are Cuban. So I got some cheap poser cigars instead.
I got a couple others. I don't care for this one as much as the Fuente I had in Florida.

Glorious east coast weather with CAO Italia. Tastes like barnyard butter, but in a good way. The smoke is all barnyard funk, but then the finish gives the impression you just ate unsalted butter. Unique and enjoyable. Perfect construction as always with CAO (Toraño).
