I was sitting out on the porch, watching the world go by and reading the Sunday paper while smoking a Sungrown Chateau Fuente.
MrsDoc just left for a couple of days upstate with our oldest granddaughter so I am all alone tonight with Peter (our cat) so I will console myself with another cigar to be named later.

I had Drill today with my Army National Guard Unit and smoked 2 Drew Estate Outdoorsman's Reserve Robustos today.

5VegasSeries A this morning with coffee....tonight not sure what I am going to have while I watch the NY Giants play football...it all depends on where I watch the game from.
Morning smoke was a Reserva Organica robusto from Plasencia with coffee and my Sunday paper. This afternoon while watching the Jags get their butts kicked, a Rocky Patel Old Worlde maduro. Tonight...I hear the island of Cuba calling my name..probably a RASS or PSD4.

A Chateau Fuente Sungrown Belicoso at the local shop after brunch; tonight, one of the EZ's [that's the medium-bodied E. Zarzuela with the silver band] on the Fire Level watching the Colts/Giants... I had tried one of the robusto's a few weeks back, going with the torpedo tonight...

Finally had my first Padron Aniversary 1926 after hearing everyone talk so much about how great it was. One of the only cigars I've ever had that was able to live up to that kind of hype and deliver. Fabulous smoke...

Chateau Fuente Natural. Admittedly, it's an average smoke, but it's what I bought for both my brothers on the eldest's wedding night. Despite the smoke's mildness, it brought back good memories and a different dynamic to the experience. In fact, I enjoyed it more so than most cigars I smoke because I was alone and able to recall one of the most special night's in my family's life through a cigar. It's amazing how such simple things can have profound effects on the mind, body and soul.
Front 9 was accompanied by a CAO Black (churchill size 6.75X48? Not sure the name of the vitola. It had been sitting alone as a single in humidor for a little over a year. Fine smoke -- decent draw, nice aroma and a very very cedary forward note. Very silky wrapper.
Back 9 was a Alec Bradley Trilogy -- Native Cameroon Torpedo. Great smoke. If I didn't know the relative prices I'd say the AB was the more expensive smoke. Big draw, with a great sweet and spicy cameroon character. Very rich, long finish. Cna't wait to see how the rest of the box continues to age.

Smoked a Gurkha Vintage on the back nine earlier today, and had a 2nd during the first half of the Giants game tonight. It is a very mild cigar, but has pretty good flavor anyway.
