Santa put something a bit different in my stocking last month - a cigar. I haven't had a cigar in more than 3 years. Today I had to drop my laptop off at Office Depot for UPS. Just a block over was Humidor Pipe Shop. Thankfully, I had already placed the cigar in my briefcase so I decided to take the opportunity to smoke it.

I love the ritual of trimming the end of the cigar and the effort needed to evenly light the end. Puffing the cigar to stoke the burn is still a blissful thing for me, but I did find the puffs of smoke lingering around my face a bit annoying (for a smoking lounge, the air circulation was lacking).

I now stink to high heaven. My fingers, clothes, hair, and breath reek of slight variations of the same cigar smell. I am now set to last a year or so before the thought of having a cigar has any appeal again. Oh! I am kicking myself for not keeping the cigar band. While I consider myself a fan of CAO cigars, this Luis Something cigar was one of the best rolled cigars I've ever smoked. Flavor was pretty good, but the burn and consistent density were superb.
