Bdawg says:  It's Thursday night, in late August.  not just any Thursday night, this is the kickoff night for College Football!  My favorite team, ND, does not play until Saturday.  But IU plays tonight.  My eldest daughter is a 5th year senior there, so tonight I am a Hoosier!

On this special night, an ordinary cigar will not due.  Time to break out a special one...

This was Cigar Aficionado's 2011 #3 rated cigar.  And I must say, I am a huge fan!
 A gorgeous light brown red wrapper speckled with black. The draw is easy, producing a long tight salt and pepper ash. The flavor is smooth, creamy, nutty, cedar with a slightly sweet finish. The the burn, slow and even. A VERY NICE!
