Little Fonseca, big enjoyment!

[PastorJack]

Yesterday morning before service I found myself with a bit of time and a hankering for a cigar. Sid's package offered just the thing, a little cedar wrapped Fonseca Torp. Initial inspection revealed a smooth, nicely constructed cigar with a rich brown wrapper. Burn was perfect, and the volume of smoke impressive. I would rate this a solid medium smoke, which went very well with my after breakfast coffee. As I reached the halfway mark it became a fairly powerful smoke, but never overbearing. I found this to be an excellent cigar.

If by traded Kevin means that I have sent him a meager handful of cigars and he has then proceeded to blow up my mailbox and give my letter carrier a hernia, then yes, we've traded!

Kevin's still trying to trade his way to heaven, eh?

If God smokes cigars, he's a shoe-in. Ya got good references!

Now there's a coincidence. I haven't had time to sit down with a good cigar in a couple of months. But yesterday we had a nice warm day. My wife and I took the dog out for a hike in the American River canyon. We picked up some steaks on the way home and sat out on the deck with a martini to watch the sunset.

I thought, "This is a perfect time for a cigar"

By pure chance, I ended up choosing a Fonesca. It was a small ring gauge cigar that was probably only 5 1/2" long. Yeah, it was a good cigar. I really enjoyed it.

I haven't had a cigar in a while so I didn't feel like having a strong cigar or a heavy maduro. This cigar was exactly what I needed. I noticed more of a nicotine hit than I'm use to, but it was a pleasant side effect withe the vodka martini I was having. It started out mellow but the flavors really got good about half way down. I smoked it almost to the last inch before it strted getting harsh.

Yeah, that little Fonesca was a darn good cigar.
