I'm alive!

Well, I have been slammed and haven't had much time to blog lately. So, since I was so busy these last weeks weeks I decided to review some shorter smokes, which are perfect when time is short. Until my next review heres what has been burning around my house.

Partagas short-These thing are amazing. i got my hands on a box of 50 and they are spectacular when time is of the essence. They deliver loads of that typical partagas flavor. for a short smoke they are VERY satisfying.

PSD4-what can i say about this classic stick. It delivers loads of cedar, cherry and rich tobacco flavors. Still my favorite smoke!

Monti #5-nothing fits a harty beer better than this little stick. Delivering that classic monti flavor with cedar, honey and a touch of spice. Another great little smoke.
maduro

However, I was a bit disappointed with the Don Pepin Serie JJ Maduro. I found the smoke boring. Admittedly, it did deliver the classic flavors of raisins with a touch of sweetness, but wasn't nearly as good as the natural.

On a fishy note, i did get my first snook off the beach on a fly rod this week. This sucker measured about 30 inches and was a blast to catch. Of course he was released to fight another day. Busy as I may be, im thankful for a few great days with the fly rod and a few night nights with a good cigar.
