A Windy Hour with a CAO Criollo

Wow, Tis' been awhile since my last post. But it's warming up again and I was due for a front porch smoke! This time I chose a CAO Criollo (pronounced cree-yo-yo, which I think is cool!) from my humidor. The winds were picking up and I was hoping for some rain, but never got it. The criollo did, however, provide a pretty good smoke. Medium bodied with some good taste and smell throughout. The end of the cigar was probably my favorite. I ended up exhaling much more through my nose, as it was a pretty sweet smoke at that point. Very enjoyable! Having eaten Casa Brava and some chocolate beforehand, I can't really pick out any specific tastes. If I tried to hot box it, it got bitter in a hurry, so I allowed some time between puffs. Doing that just makes it a longer and more enjoyable smoke, for me at least! That's about all I got to say as it is again a work night. I love awaking at 4 AM during the week! Goodnight Blogger World...
