Almost went with a Cuban my BiL bought for me in Mexico (can't remember which one specifically) but decided against it.  Mostly because I wanted a bigger cigar.

Edit:  Come to think of it, I believe it was a San Cristobal.

Morning Mr. Mayor.  Having that cigar?
Went with an AVO classic No. 3 (Presidente) (7.5"x50).  Not a huge fan of them in the past but this has aged quite nicely.


Never cared for the AVOs.  Like most Davidoff, they have a musty earth/mushroom taste that does not appeal to me.

Not sure if those are the notes I pick up but I'm generally not crazy about them either.  This one has been in the humi for years and tastes quite creamy.  Lots of smoke too.

I'm not disappointed in this AVO at all.  Not terribly complex but it's making for a great morning cigar with my HiLine coffee.

I'm finding the wrapper and the ash to be extremely delicate on this cigar.  I have to keep touching it up so that it won't unravel and I almost ashed myself several times.  Still pleasant flavors coming from it.

It's perfect out here this morning.  I'm showing RealFeel®: 79° with very low humidity.

Sounds like a Bueso to me except their dirt taste moldy.

I enjoy the Buesos too so it appears I like the moldy profile.

Speaking of Buesos, did LTG ever show up?

Lots of folks do just not me.  Not a big Avo fan but they are several leagues better than a Bueso IMHO.

Nice here now on the patio  at 78 degrees and 78 RealFeel but 100+ for this afternoon is not so nice sounding.

Not yet, your Humi has been to the Caribbean and back though.
