In celebration of a most wonderful morning in the office I decide to go downstairs and run off the cigarette smokers (some nerve they have turning their noses up when they are smoking bat excrement).
Anyhoo, pinched on time I grab this vitola in a Corona punch it, toast the foot and enjoy.
Within seconds I am bombarded by molasses and tea. Truly one of the most exhilarating PREMIUM HAND ROLLED CIGAR oral parties my palette has hosted over lunch in quite some time.
Based on it's size, the flavor from the wrapper is only intensifying my pleasure. The tea intonations are fading to the background and I am beginning to detect an unfamiliar flavor. Almost like cashews. This is more prominent on the retrohale.
I am about half way through and the ash is holding steady, it's letting off mouthful after mouthful if dense, chewy smoke and the burn line is fantastic.
While not a very complex in terms of profile changes, I would say that for me, this ranks up their with a Fuente Short Story for a lunch time smoke.
Wouldn't you know it. As I am sitting here inraptured by this fine smoke, my AT&T vendor shows up with his Mobility Rep and sits down and starts talking iPhones and rate plans (we do have a good one; 18% off our monthly bill and 48% off hardware) so I puff away and provide him with a little bit of cigar knowledge.
Well, it's time for me to get back to the grind so I will. I will do so accompanied by the fondest memories of a great cigar.
Tootles.
