about to smoke an esplendido...

[GuyMcBeerdrinker]

that has been outside of a humidor since the big 12 championship game. a friend came over to watch the texas vs. a&m game and he brought the cigar I had left at this place that very debaucherous night.

surprisingly enough, the head of the cigar didn't completely shatter when I decapitated it with the xikar. will report after I get back from my dog walk.

I regret to inform you that the esplendido was a former shell of it self. it was from about 1-2 months after the new band design was released. best I can equate the experience to is to eating a way overdone steak. the smell and looks are there, but the flavor and texture is muted, dry and tough.

I never got a chance to burn mine this week. The wind got worse on Thursday and Friday. 40 degrees with 10-15 mph winds make smoking miserable.

I feel your pain.

Sorry to hear about your mishaps. Danny and I enjoyed a few nice smokes in the comfort of my backyard while breaking in my new grill.

Legends...Did I mention that it was a beautiful 90 degree day with a slight wind blowing in from the northwest.
