troutbreath is on a distinguished road
Default Re: What cigar did you smoke today III?

This evening I enjoyed a 262 Paradigm. Never had one, and it was pretty good. Toro vitola.

I set out on the road this morning, and about 30 minutes into my drive, I realized I had not packed any cigars for my overnight trip. I looked up a local shop at my resting place (City Place Cigar in Lynchburg, VA) and swung by to see what they had. GREAT experience. The person I spoke with asked what I liked, with no knowledge of my smoking experiences. When I gave him some ideas, he knew I was no stranger to a humidor, and showed me what they had. He thought they had some Anejo's, but when they were out I said, "set me up with something different that you think I'll enjoy." I left with an Epernay, two of the 262's, and spied some God of Fire's on my way to the register and picked those up, too.

The 262's are apparently a local maker. The Paradigm is a matafina wrapper. The other line (Ideology) is a rosado wrapper. Might bust it out in another 15 minutes.

If you're in the area, give the shop a try. I rarely ever make it to Lynchburg, but will visit again when I get the chance.
