Knights & Knaves Alehouse

Me and my oldest daughter enjoying the last of the Mojave Red. It's cool when your kids are old enough to drink with you!

Yep.

More importantly WHAT IS THAT CIGAR? Looks tasty.

That is a Gurkha Evil. It's a strong, full-bodied, and very potent cigar. But despite being pretty complex and hearty, it's also an easy smoke -- nothing harsh about the flavor. It's also well-constructed with a good draw, and it produces a lot of smoke. If you haven't tried a Gurkha, the Evil is a good place to start. Try a robusto or a toro. Personally, I like the Evil as a toro.

Keep in mind that the Gurkha is potent. You'll probably feel it, especially if you haven't had a cigar in a while.

Others to check out:
Padron 1964 Anniversary
Rocky Patel Decade
Romeo Y Julieta Reserve Maduro

If you're into claros and milder smokes, check out the Avo cigars. Another good one I've had (but never seem to see in stores) is the Mayorga claro (the Mayorga maduro isn't as good, though).

My favorite size is corona. But it varies, depending on the cigar.

This is what I typically smoke and never have complaints (The Edge, also by Rocky Patel, is also good if you are more budget-minded). I used to smoke a Camacho Triple Maduro once in a while, but I think they cancelled that line. Anyway, I'll have to take a look around for the Evil, though. Shit, the name alone compels me.

Yeah, my seven year-old can hold her own, but my five year-old is a mean, sloppy drunk. After he wrecked the car I had to say no more shots after homework.

Here is one for Chainsaw:

Awesome man! Plus, what is it, like 3AM over there?!?! That's hardcore.

@Wheggi: great pic!

yeah, she's a cool kid, and when she games she's full-on old school. In fact, she busted the balls of some boyfriend she had because he played 3.5. "My dad's gonna kick your ass if he finds out you're a 3tard" hahahaha. She dumped him soon afterwards.

Yes, indeed, Saturday night at 3am Matthew was drinking Guinness and messing around with AD&D, the only time he could find to himself.

And then, at almost 4 am, Matthew was speaking of himself in the third person.

Sounds like she's got a good head on her shoulders. Gods bless ya!

I like potent cigars particularly when they don't rip up your throat. Avis are a good mild one but I like Ashtons better. Though I like a lot of flavor in cigars. I'll have to keep a look out for the Gurkha though. Never tried them! Thanks.

Edit: this sat on my iPhone all night long -blame the Sam Adams Black Lagers! Sheesh. Suppose to be after PJs response to me. Figures - cool picture though Tony!
