Smoking a stubby little Ave Maria right now. Not sure what the vitola is called, but it’s very good. 

It has a nipple. 

Definitely going to have to take advantage of nicer days to smoke a cigar.  I let my humidor get down to 60% for quite a period, because apparently only my 75% packs do the job (the 69s only kept it about 60%, and the 72s about 63.5%).

Finally caved and did the soak method to recharge my Boveda packs.  Had a few bone dry, so I gave it 5-6 days and they are working great!  Looks like it's finally back to just a shade under a steady 70%.

Ave Maria.  VERY underrated brand.

I have a buddy sending me a ton of pipe tobacco and a meerschaum pipe, which I'm stoked to tear into.

A mild stick for a mild night. 
 

I'm not the greatest at maintaining my humidor....but it gets down into the low 60's and I swap out the packs and recharge them (yeah, soak method is so simple and easy).  Haven't seen any ill effects of my poor maintenance.

Don't smoke as often as I thought I might.  But I do LOVE having a good cigar right there when the mood strikes.  I like to double-dip when I do, so finding robusto or whatever is about 5" long is what I want to stock.  Also prefer @60's diameter for a good cool smoke.

I still love Partagas.  Also love Rocky Patel.  Haven't found anything else, yet, to start stocking.  But my tiny humidor can easily stock 5-10 of each with plenty of room to experiment.

I'm excited.  Getting harder to save space in the humidor for mild cigars [for pussies].

Bumping this back up. 

I've really been loving Deadwood Tobacco Co. recently, specifically the Fat Bottom Betty

I haven't had a cigar in months. I might fire one up tonight after dinner.

Interesting. 

gut hitting the sauce late last night?

Meeting up tomorrow with some buddys from my Jungle Jim's Cigar Group. It's been over a year since some of us saw each other. Just going to have a few snacks and a few sticks like we used to. Oh and sip on some bourbon. 

Having a Rocky Patel San Andreas tonight. It’s been aging for over a year in the humidor. 👌

Brickhouse Connecticut tonight. Anyone smoke anything good lately? I think I'm going to put in an order on cigarbid in the next couple weeks.

Started going wild on cigarbid the other day. I've won two actions (5-packs) but have winning bids on about 10 more currently.

I think Curly gave me this one a while ago. Great stick. 

F**king stoked [no pun intended].

The "Honey" add-on found a coupon that saved me $25.  All said and done, I got 25 premium cigars for about $4.50 each.

It's Rocky Patel[20] seconds, so jury still out but sounds like 99.9% as good as retail.  Super excited - maybe this afternoon I'll dip in.Also, I think I finally found my favorite Partagas[5] with the silver label.  I'll update how it goes.
