I'm smoking a Thompson Don Lugo Robusto given to me eight years ago by Paul aka lubrix. I'd been waxing nostalgic about Thompson's old humidor samplers and how I actually liked some of the housebrands in those samplers. I think Paul unloaded every Thompson stick he had on me...

I don't usually reach for these when I have Opus or Anejo around, but every time I have one I am impressed. That DC Personal Reserve Robusto is just perfect, but I've enjoyed all the other sizes.
The DC lancero made me angry, because it was better than I hoped it would be, and it was my impossible unicorn wishlist cigar. Can't imagine I'll ever get to smoke one again.
