Earlier this year, Punch took advantage of warm Arizona weather to enjoy an Oliva Serie O panatela while I was cooped up inside due to freezing Kansas temps. Today being a fine spring day, I thought I would catch up by enjoying a robusto version of the same.
Easter Sunday has been a very full day for me so far, with a breakfast and cantata at church this morning, followed by an expansive meal with extended family, and extended sitting around and chewing the fat while soaking up the sun at a family farm. As we’ve returned home for the evening, there is still plenty of sun and warmth on Kansas to sit outside and take a quick break with a Villiger Export Natural.
This week, the Nubbit Brothers smoke a Villiger Colorado Double Robusto, drink Kirkland Handcrafted Ale, and discuss the novel Lucifer’s Hammer and computer game Bioshock Infinite.
I had the pleasure of spending a few minutes with Jesus Fuego, last week, at a cigar event at Big Sticks at Mesa, Arizona. Jesus is the owner of J. Fuego, a relatively young cigar company, started in 2006, and recently renamed from Tabacos S.A. While the company is not very old, the Fuego family has been in the cigar business for five generations. I had forgotten this event was coming up, and was reminded of it just two hours before it started. So I threw together a few questions to ask of Jesus, and following is the resulting conversation.
Again, this week, Draw has been victim to the Kansas weather. I can not pass up this lovely, 80 degree, Arizona afternoon so I’m taking the opportunity to try another of the singlets in my humidor — an Olivia Serie O.
Today Punch and Draw give a short, no-nonsense review of the first of several sticks from a Punch Tailgate variety gift pack: the Champion Double Maduro perfecto.
We’re reviewing the CAO OSA SOL Lot 50 Robusto 5x50. This is our first CAO. We were drawn to it from comments found in reviews for the Gurkha Warlord.
