Morning, muchachos. Last night's contestants. Also a Diplomatico that I forgot to photograph. There was a lot of Scotch.


Howdy, Raz. Good looking stuff there.
Yeah, but they weren't ripe yet. Came from a sampler and hadn't spent enough time in the humidor. The Quintero simply didn't want to burn, and kept producing condensation close to the ash. The D5 burned okay, but tasted like licking an oak branch. The Diplomatico had an invisible stripe that wouldn't burn end to end.
So, not up to the usual standards for the Chairman of the Board. The whiskey was amazing, though.
