LGAR Round IV: Leather Chair (And CAO Black)

No, I didn’t smoke a leather chair during lunch today. But I thought my new chair was more noteworthy than the CAO black I smoked and we already reviewed. I got this chair and ottoman set for a mere $70 from neighbor that was having a garage sale (on a Thursday!). It’s a $800 set from the now out-of-business Bombay Company. Having a big, luxurious chair to relax in while smoking a fine cigar is what life is all about. It’s really tough once you’ve sat at an upscale cigar bar in a nice leather chair to go home and sit on a $9 plastic chair in the garage. . . Sure, it has a little minor wear, but it’ll be perfect in my garage for smoking cigars. My current thought is to get a massive heater for the garage so I can continue to smoke during the bitter Ohio winters.

Ok, on to the CAO Black. The cigar started out bitter and off. But for me, that normally indicates that it’s going to be a good cigar. I’ll explain that theory in a later post. As expected, this flavor bomb opened up about 1/3 through and delivered. Bountiful smoke, great cedar and almond tastes. A fine afternoon cigar to test out my new chair.
