Another up and down week but the highs were very high.

Curivari was a cheap no frills smoke. Not much flavour.

Both Don Pepin Cuban Classic and Original were meh. The vegas cubanas and e.r.h were much more to my taste.

I hate Davidoff... but i finally found a davidoff i like. Would i buy another one? No. But the millennium was a very pleasant smoke.

The Padron 50th Anniversary Hammer natural was spectacular. Started a tiny bit bitter but mellowed out. Flavourful, amazing burn, great woody tones. Blew my mind

Highly recommend Santana Rooftop Bar if you are looking for a place to smoke in Melbourne.

Its not too noisy music wise and on a week night (around the 7pm mark) its quiet. Great smoking environment. Drinks are reasonably priced, friendly staff. Fine to bring your own cigars as long as you are buying drinks.

Up and down week but overall I'm happy.

The Vegueros Mananitas is still my favourite short smoke. Just lovely

The oliva serie v gordo sucked. I knew i was going to hate it, and I did. It came in a sampler and I was sick of looking at it in my humidor.

The Diesel whiskey row was ok. Was pleasant enough but its the 2nd whiskey aged cigar ive tried and both of them in didnt get from them what i expected to. Maybe my expectations are off.

The Knuckle Sandwich connecticut j was meh.

The Alec Bradley Magic Toast was excellent. Complex flavours, started nutty and ended spicy. On par with the prensado for the brand.

The Dunbarton Sobremesa El Americano was smooth and easy to smoke. Not particularly memorable but servicable enough

A forgettable week to be honest.

Have enjoyed some JC Newman cigars lately so thought id give the quorum a try as a low cost option... was awful

Aladino connecticut and camacho ecuador were pleasant enough but a bit bland.

The Davidoff Escurio is got very cheap to try as ive never really liked davidoff cigars. First half was nice but it got really sour in the 2nd half. I also got a millennium cheap to try. Will likely be my last davidoff smoke

Best of the week was the La Flor Dominicana La Nox petit. Very smooth and easy smoke, very mild but a nice cap to a night.
