I know I have fallen behind on my daily job site smokes. I have been sick for about a week and have not smoked many because of it, but I have about 5 days worth of sticks to catch up on. Will post up asap.

I was eager for this day because I had planned to have a double Ashton day the night before. I had never smoked either one of these sticks before but had high hopes because I have smoked quite a few ESG's (which is in my top 3 smokes). My morning smoke was this Ashton...I have no clue what it is other than it looked tasty...and tasty it was, but unfortunitly it fell short of what I was expecting from the brand. ![]() ![]() ![]() The after lunch smoke was another from Ashton that I have read alot about, and noticed that alot of people put this smoke in their top 5 list. Well, it hardly makes my top 5 list, i might put it into the top 15, but defitely not my top 5. It had a perfect draw, with tons of smoke that tasted very nice while nosed. Ashton VSG Man this sure is a purty cigar. ![]() ![]() Michael |

After the 64 I had a couple weeks back, and reading about this bad boy...I knew today was going to be nice. And it sure was! My day started off by the hot air ballons welcoming me in the morning by doing a fly over. This red one is actually one of the locals that advertises rides. My cousin was also up and about this morning...as they are every week. ![]() ![]() Todays smoke...Padron Anni, 1926. Absolutely wonderful. Just think I had never tried a Padron before recently with the 1964 Anni. These two gars are now in my top 5 list and I can see why they are in many other's as well. These guys have the best draw I have ever had from a cigar, and the amout of smoke you can draw from one is unbelievable. Much more mellower than its 64 brother, and very easily nosed. My advice for anyone saving one of these for a special day would be to find a reason to name a a day special and get to it. ![]() ![]() I only had one stick today after lunch, and I am glad it was this one.

Michael, I'm lovin' this thread and your pictures.
It almost makes me want to go out and get a job. ![]() PS, I found the Professor Sila that Cigars International sells to be very similar to the La Fontana. They can be had cheap. Famous smokeshop http://www.famous-smoke.com seems to have the best prices on La Fontanas that I could find.

The only place I have found local to me that sells La Fontana's is "The News Stand" on Fletcher Ave. Unfortunitly they are a periodicals first store...they have a small humi section with mostly Fuente smokes. I usually have to rehidrate the cigars I get before smoking them. (I only go there for the La Fonatana's) I will have to try the Professor Sila. Thanks. Michael |

Rainy day so I ran down to a local B&M to pick up some PAMs. My wife recieved her rebate card for a phone she bought and gave it to me for smokes...this is what I left with, plus a little extra out of pocket...damn things are pricey but hard to pass up. ![]() Could not resist smoking this Ashton ESG after my lunch. Sucker kept eyeballing me every time I looked into the humi. It was just as good as my earlier review of it. ![]() Hope to smoke some new stuff this week, with a little surprise to boot. Michael |
