This is the fourth Columbus vitola that I try, and it’s probably the best of them all. From the Regular Line, I have tried the Churchill, the Short Churchill, and the Perfectos.

The Churchill vitola is the Columbus cigar I’ve been smoking more frequently. Their quality, price, and taste makes them great cigars to purchase in large quantities and share them with friends. In fact, it seems like they have naturally become our go-to cigars when we’re hanging out. Whether we’re having barbecue, we’re out camping, or we’re at a casual bar drinking, someone always has an extra Columbus with him.

If I’m having a long night, I personally like smoking different brands. I do not like smoking two of the same brand in succession. That’s not very enjoyable for me. My palate gets bored too quickly. But I have friends who enjoy lighting two or three Columbus Churchills or Short Churchills consecutively… I suppose it doesn’t matter what you’re smoking when you’re intoxicated, as long as you’re smoking something and you’re having a good time.

Now, coming back to the Columbus Silver, let me just say that it’s a good one and that you will feel like you’re smoking something premium.

We were camping in Baskinta, and the Columbus Silver Special S was the second cigar I light that night.

I was having vodka. Our laughs were loud and frank. And I saw a falling star.

“Fools and young people talk about everything being possible for a human being. But that is a great mistake. Everything is possible spiritually speaking, but in the finite world there is much that is not possible.”

Søren Kierkegaard, Fear and Trembling

Reading Fear and Trembling
daydreaming
smoking a cigar like I control time
staring into Abraham’s eyes
smelling morning in the afternoon
drinking black coffee
I feel the wind caress my face
I’m thinking
assimilating
“The one who works will give
birth to his own father.”

I’m looking for Camus, Kafka,
Beckett, and their friends.
I’m thinking about Erich Fromm’s
and Ernest Becker’s
texts.

No one understands,
and no one will understand
why I read, I live, I write.

I want to explain,
but I don’t want to waste my time.

I burned another Gold Edition cigar, and I loved it.

I do not know a lot about this brand, and this is only the second time I light one of their cigars.

I did a quick research and skimmed through their website. In the About section, they promise their cigars to be “smooth, bold, and incredibly rich.” And, I guess, after smoking a couple of them, I must agree.

I’ll definitely smoke more Gold Edition cigars.
