I think the last time we posted examples of cigar art was sometime back in early 2013. That would be cigar art where cigar bands are concerned; I know we've posted pics of the nifty boxes these things come in as recently as last month. Or mebbe December. None the less, here are the bands from some of the sticks we've been smokin' of late:
There's a reason why we've not done one of these posts in a while and that reason is we've been smokin' the Usual Suspects for the last few months... those sticks that please us most... as opposed to broadening our horizons. We fixed that a couple o' weeks ago when we ordered one o' these:
There wasn't a clinker in the mix; I enjoyed all those sticks. That said, the only new-to-me cigar in this selection that's likely to make it into the rotation is the Nica Rustica. I really liked that cigar, which, as noted, doesn't take anything away from the other cigars.

OK, just so you know. When you wrote you'd bee smoking the usual suspects, I instantly thought, Swisher sweets. Just sayin.
ReplyDeleteI smoked a few of those in the wayback... the way-way-WAYback.
DeleteMade any progress yet on mounting and framing those as artwork, Buck? GET ON THE STICK, FELLA!
ReplyDeleteI still have all the bands from previous posts. I still might do that.
