Default Pre-celebratory smoke decision for tongiht

My second son is due on Oct 2nd but he is punching and kicking his way out of momma early if he has any say. That said, Tonight I'm going to sit and relish a smoke before s&*t gets busy. I've got a Macanudo vintage 97 Maduro that's been resting for a year and an Illusione 88 maddie both in the final bracket.

I'll still get some smokes in but I'm going to be reluctant to put a flame to anything great for fear of having some kind of diaper def-con4 situation. Yard gars are going to be the norm until little dude learns to sleep for any decent stretch of time.


so....Red or Blue pill folks?

Congratulations, my friend. Whatever you decide to smoke, I'm sure it'll be memorable.

Illusione 88 Maduro, I wasn't impressed what so ever with the Macanudo, though that seems to be the norm for that brand..

Burning both isn't something I considered. That Mac, though I normally don't go for the brand is quite pretty. Nice oily smooth wrapper, she is a beauty. I know though that the Illusione is where it's at. Wish me luck inmates.

Me - I'd go with the 88 and give my father-in-law the Mac.
