Finally got my hands on a box of Tatuaje Karloff, and realized this artwork from 2014 looks sooooooo familiar 😛 what’s the deal @tatuajeinc haha! Can’t wait to dig into these! (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGmXSlEH2TV/?igshid=1dt612ktg3p0g

Kicking off the birthday festivities at midnight with an amazing Padrón 1926 No.35 Maduro, some Angel’s Envy Rye, and a 2019 Lagunitas Willetized Coffee Stout!! Cheers!! (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEQ0kVsHOB7/?igshid=27vi6x3g1s4

I don’t think I have smoked one of these Warped La Colmena Unico Especial since the original release, and oh man, this is a near perfect cigar! I need to find a tin of these! #boxworthy #boxworthycigar #cigar #cigars #cigarlife #cigarlounge #cigarfly #calligraphy #lettering #lefty #leftylettering #inkandcigars #cigarart #calligraphyandcigars #cigartist #cigarartist #distinguishedruffian #cigarcalligraphy #nowsmoking #warpedcigar #warpedcigars #lacolmenaunicoespecial #warpedlacolmena #smokebettercigars (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCc8MxEn6YW/?igshid=10btwekenmaft

Not trying to be preachy or anything, I know this quarantine and everything has been rough for everyone. Just grab some headphones, sit somewhere and listen to a good album or five and zone out. Do nothing but listen to the music. What an ancient, beautiful and deeply human form of expression. I think it is a think so many take for granted. You can even have a drink if you feel like it.

Decided to change it up and go to the front patio, with an Original Release Cigar Dojo/La Jugada Nunchuck from 2014 I believe, paired with Evil Twin Zach’s Authentic Key Lime Sour in my Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica glass! Cheers everyone! (at Broad Ripple, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_TPs0mnP-w/?igshid=1m36r06a8dr9p

I must say this is a good wrap up to day 26, started with video games, great food, a few zoom chats and now a 2015 Crowned Heads Las Calaveras and finishing up this season of Ozark! Cheers, stay safe, stay smoky, and stay away haha! (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-3uABHHhft/?igshid=10ndvuqbw8hfc

I guess I will follow these instructions while it is still 80° 🤷🏼‍♂️ Smoking a 2014 Crowned Heads Snaredrum, and breaking in this custom @bru.mate in tumbler mode! Cheers! (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-vB32qnKer/?igshid=1ieeff0t0872v

Day 18/19, seemed like a perfect time to fire up this Mombacho Diplomatico paired with...Diplomatico Rum, while catching up on Ozark! (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-gbQ19H80F/?igshid=1s9t40ktc212m

Day 17, belated posting, enjoyed this Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Eye of the Shark with some Chai and sparkling Liquid Death! An amazing combination for these crazy times! (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-gaHx0Hhyl/?igshid=d9l1fp55gjuq

It has been a while, decided that with the quarantine, and a nice day, I’d take a chance on the new Cigar Drop A Questionable Mind and Prairie Stuf’t. Quite a delicious pair on a wonderful day! #cigar #cigars #cigarlife #cigarlounge #cigarfly #calligraphy #lettering #lefty #leftylettering #inkandcigars #cigarart #calligraphyandcigars #cigartist #cigarartist #distinguishedruffian #cigarcalligraphy #nowsmoking #50words (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-LGkw8H2p4/?igshid=lu0uqnt1odmu

76° and 87% humidity, with a Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Umbagog is a match made in Heaven! The stern but fair wood and slight black tea sweetness of the Umbagog match perfectly with the Hogo-heavy rum barrel influence on this robust-but-smooth Pirate Noir.

Yesterday, a buddy gave me this cigar and said it was a RoMa Craft Wunder/Lust Fiorella second. After Smoking it and enjoying it all the way to the nub, I would believe him! (at Smokers Choice Brownsburg) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1wfUmJDPjV/?igshid=9v9rrdc2t00y

Finished off birthday week on Sunday with a Birthday Bomb and a Fuente Don Carlos 75th from 2010! Along with amazing weather and a cubs game to watch it was a great lead in to 38! (at Klavins Estate) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1weTv8jAtD/?igshid=18djflvnddaji

Day 3 of Birthday Goat week brings us to the Warped Skyflower! Not sure if this is the 2015 or 2017 release but either way the cedar in the retrohale is out of this world! I really wish I had more of these! (at Smokers Choice Brownsburg) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1cWCN5Hj9r/?igshid=zrrafnxi0amj
