Enjoyed a Partagas Black Label this morning. Must admit, after 3 short months of indulging in this new form of relaxation my fondness for Connecticuts has shifted towards darker, fuller flavored, bolder sticks.

Davidoff Pyramides Yamasa. Great smoke that burns well, but really likes staying a but cool, so don't smoke the sh** out of it. Does not go out easily. Very nice change at about 1/3, the full flavour comes out and gets a bit more intense at 2/3. Leather, nutmeg, walnuts is what I taste.

Huge thanks to Scotty (Lockspur) for this cigar, looks like he isn't super active on here anymore but he sent it to me in a bomb a few years ago. It's so good, I'm contemplating my first box purchase. I can't put into words how great this cigar is, so many subtle flavor profile changes throughout.

Had my first Oliva Serie V Robusto (a.k.a the Double Robusto according to some sites) from my Oliva Serie V sampler earlier.

I guess 5 weeks of rest isn't enough for these as it was pretty ammonia-ish. I guess that's what I get for trying to take advantage of the still-ok weather and having a smoke outside earlier..

For future reference, what is the right term for this stick as it's 5X54. Is it a Serie V Robusto or a double Robusto??

You can check out their web page here for the Oliva V:

This particular Oliva V cigar has been known as the "Double Robusto" since day 1
