Apparently the accountant that started this thread cant count, May has thirty one!
It appears to run from the 15th, probably his demented little thirty day celebration of the passing tax season.
Single 19 is an Aging Room Bin No 1. I got this as a single from one of the epic bnb groupons. Remember those @WNYTONY ? I'm finally smoking it now. I haven't liked any other Aging Room cigars I've ever tried. If I don't like this I'm done with them.
There has been a bunch of rain that way. The farm is south of you 60 miles just across the border outside of Braman OK and I haven't been able to get in the John Deere and run the brush hog for several weeks. I can't imagine what it will look like when I am able to mow. We spent a small fortune to get roads put in the place so I'm not going to rut it up with the tractor...Quote:

That should read " May had thirty one!" as per His Excellency Sir. Dog Rockets decree, May this year had thirty.Quote:

Oh yeah I remember the Groupon. I think @c.ortiz108 may still have some.Quote:

I do like the Aging Room Quattro but they do need some age so yours should be about perfect now.
For me today a simple Tatuaje Series P Robusto for Tat Tuesday. Tough to find a Tatuaje single in that drawer but I found not only one, but I also have another that is begging to go to the golf course with me tomorrow for league. I'll be able to celebrate, what the heck is it called @DogRockets Twatedsday or something like that ?
Hope you liked that Belle Encre @restomod 75 yesterday, I'm getting ready for you
It was the humane thing to do Farrell. I'm sorry for your loss.Quote:

You know what ya get when ya hang with a Horseshoe? DogRockets do...
Realized I don't have as many singles as I thought. For my fear of smoking the last of any cigar, I keep most in pairs.
But I wanted an easy early-morning cigar for this past Sunday, here's what I grabbed (only one of em!)

Sad this is a single... my last E-Stunner by EP Carrillo.
Single number 20 is a Perdomo 20th anniversary maduro courtesy of @Horseshoe
I had a couple of these the year they came out and wasn't as impressed as most people. A couple years later and I've changed my mind a little. Smooth like buttah with some Dalwhinnie 15.

Atypical for me to smoke more than more a day, but...
Having been drinking a hoppy pale I figured a more mild type smoke might work, and though not a great choice I didn't want to take a single to see if it paired well so chose a Cargo.
What I found was that it didn't clash too badly but did somewhat mute the hop flavor of my pale. But when I tried it with a Sierra Nevada pale it went well enough, which makes me wonder if it due to a lesser hop flavor or more bitter upfront.
Inquiring mind wants to know about a cigar that doesn't clash with a paler beer, and especially a hoppy IPA.

Did the scotch smooth it out though?Quote:

Good luck if you start descending that slope too, haha!Quote:

Courtesy of Merovius. Lost and found Skin suit...5x50.
Good looking and well constructed Robusto, really nice tobacco smell before lighting, then within just a few minutes realize theres an excellent taste in this cigar, cant name it and tho not overpowering it's certainly there, expect had I beenreally focused would have noticed this right from the start. This smoked at a very even keel, remarkably smooth retrohale. The way a genuinely good cigar should smoke, never bitter, no nicotine blasts nor sticky sweetness, just excellent tobacco all the way till the end after one hour and thirty five minutes. Must exptess my gratitiude to Tyler (Merovius ) for having provided me with this fine smoke, which hopefully shall save me from His excellency Sir Dog Rockets displeasure, as Thus I'm able to meet his Excellency's decreed thirty days of singles this one further time.
26 and 27 for me today
First up - a Tatuaje Cojonu 2003 courtesy of @lvfcrook1503 :thumb: Fantastic smoke - thanks Jimmy

And tonight an Oliva Serie V #4 from Seth the man @penna stogey Nice way to end the day
We generally have a bottle of Mac 12 kept at the farm. Me and my two buddies usually will "finish" off the day with a sip or two...Not much of a "Holy Grail" chaser of scotch, and the Mac will do just fine....Quote:

Singles 21 and 22 tonight. First up a La Palina El Diario Kill Bill and then an Ashton ESG. Both new to me.
Tonight I grabbed a cigar that was gifted to me, but sadly I forgot to write on it who it was from. It's been over a year ago and if it was from you, please speak up so I can thank you again. It is a JM's Maduro Corona and I am very impressed with this inexpensive cigar (less than $2). I am only 1/3 in and I would gladly smoke more of these. Not taking into account its price, this is a really good smoke. I have smoked a bunch of $6-$7 cigars I don't enjoy nearly as much as this one. Impressed!
Been sitting on this single for just over a year now. Tonight seems as good as any to give it a go. Paired with some Austrian beer that I grabbed cheap at the liquor store today (made in Austria is about the only thing I can read on the can) and its tasting pretty good.

Sticks 30 and 31 for me today
First up - a Boli Coronas Junior from @Gunther7912 while out for a quick walk before dinner

Does this make my hand look more normal? @Old Smokey
