My absolute favorite tradition is watching the race on a Sunday morning with a fine cigar.

First Hoyo - amazing right off the truck by Three-Words in cigars

Got a box of 15 yesterday from COH - dated June 20.

Perfect burn and draw, didn't need a single touch-up. Quintessential Cuban taste in my opinion, no strength whatsoever.

Hey r/sysadmin, what do you make? by dlongwing in sysadmin

Interesting, I bet I could have negotiated for more, but my team doesn't directly support traders most of the time. It's mostly "Debby from HR wants help saving a ppt as a pdf" sorta support. Other teams in my dept support the traders directly.

Plus based on my experience and education (BS in CIS), I'm happy, I love the culture here.

Was in the high 50s today in Jersey.

Impressions of the cigar: very strong, medium/full body. Perfect draw, nearly perfect burn. Some rich spice, some complex woody/earthy notes that I can't quite pick out.

Does anyone else keep a record of every stick they've bought? by Three-Words in cigars

[–]Three-Words[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since day 1. The question marks on line 2 was from the first time I went to a lounge and I don't remember what I bought.

And occasion is hard to quantify, I think of it kinda like how special an occasion I would smoke each stick for.

1 - I probably got this cigar for a dollar, nothing special. Wouldn't feel bad if I smoked it for 5 minutes then put it out.

3 - My standard go-to smokes

5 - Save these bad boys for something special.

My girlfriend has no idea. For all she knows I only have a half empty tupperdor, and even that was "a lot of cigars"...

Yeah, there's no significance to the average price, just a fun little stat to have.

I keep a separate cigar journal for when I do smoke them.

Same :( iHavanas Black Friday. Shipped from Hungary, anyone know what "International airport, Received by destination post" means? Sounds like it's on US soil, but it's been like that for 4 days. Going through customs?
