Tabernacle in Toro. Heavy earth and leather. This is a full bodied, almost “chewy” smoke. Great cigar after a hearty meal. Mine paired well with a good Cabernet.

Good start to the day. Arganorsa Leaf Reserve in Robusto. Mild/medium body and a very light floral taste experience with a sweet spicy finish. Pretty interesting cigar enjoyment.

Great cigar. Got it as a  Christmas gift and decided to give it a try. Fruity flavors and a wonderful sweet tobacco smoke profile.

Morning sunrise and a good cigar. Peaceful and quiet. Best time of the day for me.

Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Stillwell Star Bayou No. 32. This is a half pipe half cigar tobacco cigar. They have several in this series.

This one is a Nicaraguan filler along with bright and red Virginia and St. James Perish Perique.

It definitely has a more smooth creamer smoke that of a pipe tobacco with the sweet Virginia and the Perique shines through with the not overpowering spice.

Enjoying with a Glenlivet 12 yr single malt.

Enjoy Tim! I have yet to try that cigar. Heard a lot about it and have seen a lot of videos, so I'll have to give it a shot next time I'm at the tobacconist. I've been out with a severe cold and haven't been able to enjoy a good cigar for quite some time.

New addition to the humidor. HVC Pan Caliente - mild/ medium morning enjoyment. Just me and the birds.

Not every premium cigar hits the spot. This My Father cigar company interpretation of the old Fonseca blend is way too harsh and blunt for my taste. Leaves a burnt taste and scratchy tingle on my palate.

After finishing the first third I tossed it.

I have another one of these cigars in the humidor and will give it another shot in a few days. It might have been a rolling/construction problem, or that my taste buds were off-kilter on that day.
