Playing Catch Up

I have apparently failed at my quest...OK I suffer from ADD, with some hyper activity, I gave up lost track or lost interest in the top 25 Cigars of 2011.  So here's what I have been enjoying.

At right is the Arturo Fuente Rosado Sungrown Magnum R Vitola “Fifty-Four” this is a nice little smoke...



To the left is a Tatuaje SW Riserva I'm a huge Tatuaje fan! Huge fan! I probably smoke more Tatuajes that any other cigar. The Black Label Petite Lancer, La Riqueza, Riserva SW, El Triunfador, and the Cabaiguan Guapos are some of my favorite cigars day in and day out. OK Pete Johnson does a great job with all of his blends. 

                                                                                           

Luis Tiant, El Tiante, a Pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, who finished his career with my NY Yankees.  Recently, with his son Daniel workin alongside, El Tiante has gotten into the cigar business.

I took great pride in telling Daniel of the Day in 1979 where at Yankee Stadium El Tiante, his father, signed my glove.

At right, is the stronger of the two cigars, the Habano Oscuro.






At left is  is the milder Habano Rosado...

Hard to find in the PHX  (only Fine Ash Cigars in Avondale, The Scottsdale Cigar Club, Goodfella's Cigar Lounge in Phoenixm, and  Mojito Cigar Lounge in Cave Creek...But its worth the effort

 My favorite place to enjoy a Cigar is Ambassador Fine Cigars  recently Vartan Seferian, aka the Ambassador, opend a second location close to home.  I stopped by his past Saturday, spent some time in the Embassy Club, the Private Members Club of Ambassador Fine Cigars

Ah the Cigar, at Right is a Vartan Zoravar, this cigar is made for Ambassador Fine Cigar by Davidoff. It is one of the finest cigars made today.






At Left is photo take from the seating area, the lounge boasts a full kitchen, two (2) 60" Flat Screens with Direct TV, a poker table and lockers for the Members...

Finally, we are caught up....Sunday was spent outside enjoying a beautiful Arizona afternoon watchin NASCAR, side note I can't wait until Saturday night when F1 starts, followed by the ALMS and Indy Car the following weekend.

As we know I am huge Alec Bradley fan, from the Prensado, to the Family Blend, Black Market, and the Fine and Rate.  Sundays afternoon smoke was  The Tempus Maduro.  Great stick, full bodied, screwed up with the beverage though should have paired it with a Negra Modelo, or even a Guiness!

I will close with a quote from my friend "the Ambassador"

"Have a Smoking Day."
