Tonight I have selected a Boneshaker to smoke.
Great flavor and even burning and a bit on the strong side. I like full bodied cigars from time to time.

It was a nice cool evening tonight and I decided to spend a little time out in the porch with a Cohiba I got from Oscar. Pretty good smoke, not my favorite but smooth and enjoyable.

::tu:: ::ds:: I waited months for this
ARTURO FUENTE “OPUS X”
ARTURO FUENTE “OPUS X”
My absolute favorite cigar. I’ve only had a few as they are appropriated and near impossible to find. Also, way out of my price range. Not a frequent indulgence even if they were readily available, as they are $35 apiece. I acquired it for an occasion and it was in my humidor for about four months. Tomorrow, Thursday is the day. ::ds:: ::ds::
I made a pen from a blank casted by an acquaintance and superb blank maker. He attached a tobacco leaf to the brass tube, added the cigar band and casted it in resin.
I turned and polished it on the lathe. This is the result after assembling it.
Made a very unique pen from the cigar band.

Always a great day when you refill your humidors. I’m using 3 of the 4 I have. The one I don’t use seems not to keep the proper humidity. Probably will buy another one. I’m looking at one that holds 300 cigars. The three I have hold 100 cigars each. Like knives you can never really have enough.
