Sometimes It’s SO Hard to Be Patient!

Earlier this week, I received a box of Oliva Serie V Melanios. I unwrapped the box and placed it in one of my “tupperdores” as I do with all my new shipments. And amazingly enough, I have been able to resist the urge to smoke one. It has been incredibly difficult to not give in!

I love that cigar, and it tends to be the one I smoke the most at a local B&M. They’ve got a fantastic selection, but for some reason, I always go to the Melanios. Part of the reason is because that smoke puts me in a contemplative mood. When I go to a lounge, I normally keep to myself. There might be all sorts of activity around me, but I just like to stare off into space and appreciate the smoke.

To be honest, I don’t know how long I will hold out. But since those sticks are SO good, I want to ensure that they’re well-equalized before I move them into my “ready” box. In the meantime, at least I have a couple of hundred other sticks that are ready. :)
